### 4/5 — Great keyboard only one problem

*2018-10-21*

The keyboard is great, very easy to install and use and it actually has the capabilities I was looking for, unlike another app that I paid for!  I would have paid for this one, but I can’t find a way to donate to the developer.  
Anyway, the smiley keyboard does NOT work, when you click on the button to access it, the keyboard kind of stutters and then reverts to iPhone’s default keyboard.  I can’t find another way besides this review to provide bug feedback as the Contact Us link on the developer’s website returns an error.
