Solid, keep going please!

Just migrated from Android and was used to FlickBoard. Generally, I’d support taking a page out of their book! The particular things I miss are an emoji shortcut, an ability to toggle select mode and select text by dragging on the spacebar, an option to allow long pressing a key to type uppercase letters, and the mini single column numpad always on on the lefthand side of the keyboard.
Solid keyboard overall. Would love some more features. Thank you!

A good start

A nice early version of a copy of the Messagease keyboard app. Even though Messagease hasn't had an update in 7 years, this one still has some catching up to do. The main missing feature is drag to resize. Long press on letter to type number is also handy. Finally, more color themes. But I appreciate your work on this so please keep it up!

Works really well

I saw this version of a keyboard a long time ago and really wanted it for iOS. I’m glad to see that someone made this possible. Im not very good at it yet, but its fun to learn.
