No Swipe = no go
Almost perfect but lack of swipe is a big deal killer.

Excellent for secondary characters
Have been looking for something like this for a while, since Reboard stopped working. Easytype works beautifully with iOS 26.2.
Every key has a second character easily typed by swiping up, making it quick once you learn where the characters are. Also, if you turn off predictions the top line of the keyboard disappears leaving more visible phone screen area.
A bonus is that Easytype works without requiring full access.
Swipe down for capitals and the ability to customise where the secondary characters are would be great additions, but as a keyboard for quick and easy typing this is already great.

upgrade
since I upgraded to the latest OS this app does not work properly. I have found it useful but had to delete it. It is no longer reliable.
:)
мне очень понравилось это приложения
Perfect, exactly what i was looking for, but it has bugs. (and kinda outdated.)
Sometimes it locks up and crashes, to fix it you'll need to turn full access on and off. But the developers stop updating this app for some reason. So i dont think these will be resolved. But ive kept using it, and theres no other app like this, so. You get what you get 🤷♂️
Great alternative for old samsung users
Cant use it to write this review though lol... Idk why
Swipe to text not available
This would be the perfect keyboard if it had swipe to text. I've spent hours and days trying to find the right keyboard but I still can't find it
Why is this on the iPad app store?
It won't work on iPad so why is it listed here?
Doesn’t actually work
Stopped autocorrecting in the third sentence then locked up altogether. Not a great start. Deleted.
Perfect, exactly what i was looking for, but one bug.
Yeah, its good, simple.. but its starting to crash every time i try to use it, so i’m giving it four stars.
I love the app
I love the app, but if I had the option to type by swiping, it would be perfect!!
Very unique features but one big downside
I have been using gboard for the longest time sick of the bugs that came with it. And i found this keyboard that gives me more characters with minimal space. This keyboard solve a few other problems as well. Great cursor move function, fun delete option and a few other items.
But one glaring flaw. It does not use the built in text replacement functions found in iOS settings. I have a lot if then and it is important to be able to have this feature. Unfortunately all the other items were not enough to want me to continue to use this and have found another.

Has some irritating quirks that could be dealbreakers
Basically PERFECT - exactly what a Samsung user needs to think an iPhone is worth the hassle. However there is a frustrating bug where the autocorrect will double up words, add hyphens and extra letters, and basically make the keyboard unusable without great frustration. It also sometimes gets 'stuck' so a single tap will add multiple letters. Exiting the text box or page will sometimes fix it but not always. Other than this quirk, I very much enjoy this app and it has made using the iPhone easier for me after being a Samsung user for 13 years.

Serious speed increase over standard
This keyboard with its symbol or numeric additional second character on each key (just like conventional PC keyboard) makes text with even just occasional symbols in it so much faster and convenient to type. Access second symbol by long press or swipe up like on iPad keyboard. Spell check also good as you can tap to go back to text already typed and get spell check/correct on previously typed text. Enough emojis and themes to keep most people happy, but that's not something I personally change often. Found my theme and stick with it. Then best kept to last - proper numeric keyboards! Choice of calculator or telephone style (123 at bottom or top that is) Plus 100 % safe as iPhone always switches back to their own iOS keyboard automatically for passwords or PIN typing. Best keyboard I've found, and used it on all all my phones since 2018. Even bought an additional minimalist theme.
Still using it in 2023 and now set to swipe down to match ipad keyboard alternative keys

Will not swipe
It seems pretty hard to find a keyboard that will swipe.
Good Keyboard but No Swipe Function
This is nice, neat and functional keyboard but it has no swipe facility. That was all I wanted. Maybe it’s me but I find it strange that modern keyboard has no swipe function.
The design is so cool but couple things not so good
I really like the design. I have been looking for such a keyboard for a long time. It fits all my needs in terms of design. I really like
1. The alternative symbols
2. Swipe to switch to numbers or emojis
This would be my ideal keyboard if auto correction and prediction are better.
1. Auto correction just doesn't work on me. It doesn't seem to correct anything no matter what I type.
2. Prediction isn't very well either. It has some prediction, but it doesn't have the words I want most of the time. Other keyboards like the built-in one and gboard are much better.
I really looking forward to using it once the above issues are fixed.

An important note that will bring you many fans
We need language Arabic please please
Where'd My Microphone Go?
I thought I really liked this keyboard - more like my previous Samsung / Android
Until I had no way to dictate. So boo.
And the word guesses are poor so far, probably because the developer is in Slovakia
