  • Too small

    Like many on here, I've previously used this keyboard on my jailbroken device. I wanted to like this keyboard but it is far too small to accurately type on. It is also missing the dictation button and predictive type. Great features but poor execution for now. Hopefully future updates will address these problems.

  • Getting better.

    With the recent update, majority - if not all - stability issues are fixed. Kudos to the developer for the great effort in releasing the update.

    However, word prediction/correction still lags behind other 3rd party keyboards like Swiftkey. An increase in height to more closely match the stock keyboard would also help a lot. If the reason you want this keyboard is for the 5th row, it truly does it’s job well. But for a better typing experience, iKeywi still has a long road to travel.

  • Two more annoyances for the list!

    If this keyboard is selected, I can't open the camera from the lock screen. REALLY annoying!
    Holding down the globe key doesn't bring up the keyboard list the way it does on the standard keyboard. Makes it that much harder to use.
  • Good idea but not a perfect keyboard yet.

    The idea behind this keyboard is amazing and coming from a previously jail broken device I'm very delighted to see these feature. My only problem with this keyboard is that the size is too small, even though I have pretty small hands the keys are still too small for me to type on. Another feature I think that would be useful is secondary keys that are accessible through a simple swipe up gesture, and the swipe to type feature, much like TouchPal keyboard's features. Because of those reasons I think I will stick to using TouchPal or the Default Keyboard as my primary keyboards. However if the features I pointed out are implemented I will definitely start using this keyboard a lot more.

  • Great Keyboard

    Thank you for bringing this to non-Jailbroken devices. Perhaps you could incorporate a tiny image of alternate key for each key like in AltKeyboard.
  • Not quite there

    I was really stoked about this app because of its swipe selection-like feature, but after using the keyboard for a day, I've removed it from my keyboards.

    It's practically unusable as-is. The keys are way too small (can you pleeeease make them the same size as the current stock ios 8 keyboard (which works so well on my iPhone 6)? Also, there needs to be an option to remove the 5th row.

    The autocorrect is also terrible. It more often screws up what you're typing rather than correcting it. This becomes a big problem because of the tiny keys; I'm constantly making tons of typos (I am normally pretty accurate). Consequently, it took me forever to type a couple sentences and requires tons of editing. To the point that using this keyboard started to give me anxiety and made me not want to message anyone (I had deleted the stock keyboard hoping I would no longer need it).

    If the keyboard size was increased a bit to take advantage of the larger iPhone 6 and 6+ screens and the option to remove the 5th row added, it would vastly improve this keyboard (but don't forget about improving the autocorrect).

    I really hope this keyboard gets updated soon because I have such high hopes for it and it's one of the few apps I've ever actually paid for in the App Store.

  • Nice idea but tiny keys

    It shrinks the keys so much they're unusable. Make it full size please. Waste of money as it stands.
  • Needs work

    Should be able to disable suggestion bar for full sized keys.
  • Predictive text is terrible

    Predictive text is awful. It ruins my words and doesn't seem to learn the way I type and what I type. I like the swipe cursor movement which is why I bought the keyboard. There are times where the keyboard won't even type in the messages app as well. Please fix :(
  • Needs Improvement

    I was exited to discover this keyboard finally hitting the App Store because of its frequent usage on my jailbroken iPhone. However the autocorrect and predictive typing integrated with the 5 row setup is lacking in functionality. Also the ability to resize the keys making them smaller or bigger might be a great extra feature for iPhone 6 and 6+ users.
