Works great with minor exceptions
My most used feature is the left and right cursor movement and quick switching between languages. I genuinely prefer this keyboard over the native iOS one. The exceptions: it takes up extra real estate that isn't always compensated for well, such as when shortcut prompts pop up as tiny slivers that cannot be activated. Sometimes that requires rerunning the shortcut after reactivating the native keyboard. Also, being asked to leave a review when I'm trying to type something. Hopefully this review takes care of that.

The spell check is too aggressive
I like the app for the most part but it is very difficult to type a word which is not in it’s dictionary. I’ll type an unusual name or word and it will keep changing the word to something else. That is annoying.
****- Focus for now on one long-standing annoying issue here :::
• The bottom row of Typefinity's OSK on my iPad mini (6th Gen, from 2021) looks like this :::
[ Option | Globe | ForwardDel | Spacebar | ← | → | Kbd-dismiss ]
• Now tapping that third-position "Forward Delete" key almost anytime works perfectly, except with our text cursor positioned at end of almost whichever Edit Zone → where most inadvertently, in many apps, it causes 🟠 ~BackSpace~ to happen : yes, Backward delete indeed.
• This anomaly is easily demonstrated in e.g. a cell in Apple's Numbers app, or in the AppStore's top-of-screen Search field, or at end of a document in M$Word or in Agile Tortoise's Drafts or in their "Terminology" Search field, or in Apple's Messages app, or in Signal, or in a field in AirTable, etc.
• Most remarkably the darn "artifact" doesn't happen in Apple's Notes app. 🟢
• Will some day something be done about what I described hereabove regarding the absolute multitude of countless other apps ?

Not worth the money
Pay 7.99 aud then have to pay a subscription on top, how greedy are you people
Better than default keyboard
There are numerous benefits of Typefinity versus the default Apple keyboard. There is one drawback that I would like to point out and one suggestion for improvement. The drawback is that any new voice dictation phrase should capitalize the first letter. The suggested improvement is if the cursor is at the end of a word and I hit the caps lockkey, suggested change in the correction bar should be an all caps version of that word. And where can I find documentation on all the features of Typefinity?
