Because I use the haptics on my keyboard this feels wrong without it. ### 5/5 — Impressed *2020-08-17, version 1.5* Advice, read the sellers notes for simple instructions on how to get necessary punctuation for number and adjusting the pad size too. I really didn’t think I would like having to hold down the globe button to switch back & forth to the Numpad. But having it nonetheless was worth it. Turns out you don’t always have to do that, if it’s last left on that choice it’s simple, just tap the globe and it’s there. Love this! Thank you!!!!!!!! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for the review! ### 5/5 — Amazing. Worth the buck. *2020-07-30, version 1.5* This is perfect. You can alter the order of the numpad, you can change the button besides 0 to a space, comma, or period, and you can quickly search back to a keyboard when you’re done. Absolutely perfect. **Developer response:** Thank you for the review! 🙌🏼 ### 5/5 — Exactly What I Needed *2020-02-23, version 1.5* I don’t know how 10-key is not a built in keyboard in iOS. Thank you for filling an obvious hole! **Developer response:** Thanks for the review Brent! ### 4/5 — Needs to reverse numbers! *2019-09-30, version 1.5* Needs to have the option to reverse the numbers, so it looks more like a traditional number keypad. Besides that, really good app! **Developer response:** Thank you for the review. This option is already available by holding the “5” key for three seconds. I will consider to highlight this feature a bit more. ### 4/5 — Great keyboard. Needs one more button *2019-07-30, version 1.5* Being able to customize one button is a great idea. The space bar, however, should be a permanent button. **Developer response:** Thanks Richard! I will consider your request! ### 5/5 — Great App! *2017-10-31, version 1.5* This app is perfect for entering a lot of numbers in excel. My business uses it in multiple locations entering tens of thousands of numbers each day. Thank you for the size update and the addition of the keyboard clicks. ### 5/5 — Mr *2016-12-27, version 1.4.2* This is a much needed feature on the iPad. Great work. Would be nice if I could control the size so that it doesn't take up half the screen. ### 5/5 — A wonderful app! *2016-05-13, version 1.3* I originally thought there was no tab or space bar on this to get rid of the old iPad problem of entering numbers with spaces in between, but on the comma button on lower right, you can change to a comma tab button. Perfect! ### 5/5 — Exactly what I wanted for number keyboard *2015-11-11, version 1.3* This is a great app! I love it and it's perfect if you want to have a numeric keyboard that works perfectly. It also is easily customizable to change a few things. It is worth the dollar. I don't have anything negative to say about the app so far. It works and is what I wanted, just a numeric keyboard that works great. ### 5/5 — Most useful keyboard I've used *2015-10-14, version 1.3* This keyboard does exactly what I need, without any unnecessary clutter. The settings are easy to change, and you don't have an extra 'settings' button taking up room. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App no longer works *2024-01-05* Stopped working with upgrade to ios 17 **Developer response:** Sorry about this. I have been debugging and contacted Apple for support. ### 1/5 — Can’t use app *2024-01-05* I just got the new update and now I can’t use this keyboard, it doesn’t even show up in settings anymore. **Developer response:** Sorry about this. Since 17.2 it doesn’t work. I have contacted Apple for support. ### 1/5 — Where did it go? *2023-12-29* I haven’t been able to add this feature on my iPhone Keyboard settings. It doesn’t even show up as additional keyboard. **Developer response:** Hi, sorry about that. Since 17.2 I have some issues with the app. I am trying to get in contact with Apple since I believe it’s on their end. ### 1/5 — Not as expected *2023-09-07* I just want to replace the built in numeric keyboard with this one but still want to use the iphone fill keyboard with the non-numeric fields. Well cant do that. ### 1/5 — App Changed Default Language on phone *2023-01-20, version 1.5* The app worked ok, but messed up the language settings on the phone. Deleted app as it can't be trusted. **Developer response:** I’m sorry to hear that you are disappointed. Maybe I need to be more clear in the app description that this app’s purpose is to replace the normal keyboard in your language to a keyboard with numbers only. This should be easy to switch on and off though! ### 1/5 — Great concept but missing a key feature *2014-10-31, version 1.0.1* This app was just what I was looking for. Then I discovered there is no decimal "." input on the keyboard. Useless to me. ### 2/5 — App disappeared after the new update *2024-01-21* I can’t use it anymore after the new iPhone update. I will add 5 stars back it’s fixed. **Developer response:** Hi, I am so sorry but the app stopped working because of an issue with my App ID. Please contact me by email and I’ll send a link to a temporary Apple TestFlight fix. ### 3/5 — 🛟 Numpad Missing in iOS 17 *2023-12-24* Dear Developer, I have been a user of your app for many years and was pretty disappointed that immediately after installing iOS 17.2.1 on my iPhone 12. Numpad no longer appears at all as an option under the "Add New Keyboard..." list. A guessing that you might already be aware, but wanted to contact you to ask you if there’s any possibility that it could potentially come back or if this is just rare to me and maybe there’s something I could do. Thank ank you so much for your time and consideration. ### 3/5 — Too small on iOS 10 *2016-09-18, version 1.3* I really like the idea of this app and enjoyed it on iPhone before iOS 10. Now it's really tiny and not as useful. They should really optimize it because even on my 6S+ it's tiny. Good app otherwise but needs to be patched ### 4/5 — App disappeared *2024-01-26* I’ve used this app for several years and it disappeared on the settings keyboard in December. I deleted it and restored my iPad to factory settings and it is now a paid app. I paid the .99 and downloaded again…still doesn’t appear on the keyboard when I try to add it in settings. Please help! **Developer response:** Hi, please email me and I’ll send you a link to a temporary fix. I have problems with my app id since 17.2. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great for data entry! *2024-03-07* Had a small issue that was resolved within 30 minutes from Numpad support. Always get compliments on the numpad. Data entry and typing credit cards have never been easier ### 5/5 — Stopped working *2024-03-05* I used that app till now, I really liked it. It stopped working in some odd reason, couldn’t find it in keyboard **Developer response:** Hi! I have a problem with the app and iOS version 17.2. It’s a problem with iOS, not my app. Please contact me and I will give you a temporary TestFlight fix. Thank you for 5 stars even with my current issues! ### 5/5 — Where did my keyboard go? *2024-02-01* I’ve used this keyboard for several years and now it is missing from my list. Was it taken down? **Developer response:** Hi! I have a problem with the app since iOS 17.2. Please email me and I’ll give you a temporary fix for this. ### 5/5 — Don’t 1-star it just bc of the iOS update… *2024-01-28* Calm down, take a second. The dev is working on it, and hopefully we’ll all have our favorite third-party keyboard back soon. Review bombing this app isn’t going to make it happen any faster though. I’ve used this app multiple times a day, every day, for the past several years. Even if I have to purchase a whole new app from the dev I would because the $2 it costs is nothing compared to the time it’s saved me. **Developer response:** This comment made me so happy! Thank you for your understanding ☀️ The app stopped working because of my App ID. Please contact me by email and I’ll send a link to a temporary Apple TestFlight fix. Have an awesome day!

Trust me, I’m on it but need support from Apple. I hope that this issue will be fixed soon, and when it is, I will also update the app with some features. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2023-12-25* I don’t know why Apple doesn’t have this as a default built in, but I’m glad this app is here to fill the gap! It works great and helps so much with my work. **Developer response:** Hi, I am so sorry but the app stopped working because of an issue with my App ID. Please contact me by email and I’ll send a link to a temporary Apple TestFlight fix. ### 5/5 — Really good, works well (2023) *2023-07-21* In case anyone is concerned about the app not having been updated in years: as of 2023, it still works flawlessly. Well worth a buck. **Developer response:** Thank you! 🤩 ### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed. *2023-02-03, version 1.5* This keyboard enables the use of a configurable Number Pad anywhere. It has been indispensable for entering data into spreadsheets (like Google Sheets). **Developer response:** Thank you for your review Dave! ### 5/5 — Just what I was looking for! *2022-04-30, version 1.5* This app is excellent! I had to restart my iPhone 11 iOS 15.3 for it to be recognized as a new keyboard. The restarting is no big deal, as I have to do so it at lease once a week as apps will freeze or phone will lock up. Very much needed app Thank You! **Developer response:** That’s weird with the restart!
