Ratings and reviews

Longtime user, just installed on a new phone (Samsung Galaxy S25), and am frustrated by a feature that seems to be missing. The symbols panel in previous versions had a key marked "<>" that brought up a T9 keypad, really useful when entering a lot of numbers. Now I don't see it & can't find any mention of it in settings.

Been loving this app since the dawn of time! (Can't believe I hadn't reviewed it before this.) I've tried others, and bought still others, but absolutely nothing suits my needs better. Just the right amount of automation, substitution, correction, and customization. It is THE first app I install after getting a new, or redoing an old, device. If it went away, I'd either have to go back to paper and pen or shoot myself! 🤣

When looking for a keyboard that is easier to type on with larger keys, this one in compact mode (2 keys per button) is ideal. It has many special characters available on extended keyboards which I find useful. Edit: unfortunately the lack of a UK dictionary makes this keyboard's compact layout diminished.
