Neo Keyboard
Read full descriptionHide full description
This is an implementation of the Neo keyboard layout for iOS. Since Neo wasn't designed to be used on small touch screens, a direct port of the desktop layout wouldn't be very useful. Instead, this port adapts the layout, taking cues from Apple's implementation of the QWERTY-layout (see screenshots for the exact layout). This project is in an early stage. It is fully functional and ready to be used, but it doesn't yet implement any equivalent of layers 5 and 6 of the Neo layout. There also isn't any autocompletion, or autocorrection. These things might be released in future updates, but there is no timeline. The project is open source, so if there is something you'd like to see, feel free to add it yourself. If you add something useful, you can also open a Pull Request for your changes to be merged into the App Store version.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Neo Keyboard at none against Breef's 3. Neo Keyboard also leads on iOS requirement (15.2 vs 18.0). Breef's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
