Doesnt work on iOS 8.1

This installs, and lets you (theoretically) configure it, but the fifth row (no matter what you tell it) stays blank. Tested on an iPad 3 and 4, and an iPhone 5c and 6 plus. On the 6 plus, the swipe-to-move-cursor/insertion point did work, but the fifth row (for all devices, in all states and configurations) stayed three long grey blank(no extra buttons). Older reviews show that this used to work on "JB" devices, so I expect it will be updated to work soon. Will update this review when this works. Also, the support link on the App Store leads to a page that is not in English. Unable to locate any English support for this app (wanted to contact developer before leaving a negative review).

UPDATE THIS

WORKED GREAT FOR 1-2 DAYS THEN IT STOPPED

The way it is now - NO.

The smallness of the keys, especially relative to the vastly improved stock keyboard, makes it not worth the added features. All it needs is keys the same size as the stock ones, but until then it’s unusable, AFAIK.

I want to love it but I cant

The swipe selection like functionality works great for me but everything else stinks. I hate to say that but its true. This version is not worth your time, its buggy and inconsistent. I would be interested to see rev 2.

It doesnt work!

On iphone 6 i cant see anything i type in here. I am forced to use the default keyboard or the text is like white letters on white background. Also, please add a Settings page, so we could get rid of the predictive area (and make bigger keys instead). A nice feature would be to choose between dark and white keyboard...

Worst app ever

What a piece of junk. It really screwed up my phone and my iPad.

Wanted to love it, but...

I love that it has a 5th row (and its customizable) AND it has predictive text, but the letter keys are so tiny I never hit the correct letter (and I have tiny hands). That made it unusable.

I should have read the reviews first...

Ive been dying to get a keyboard with a numerical row at the top since theres plenty of space on the 6+. While it sort of works, it is completely unstable. It doesnt actually add an extra row, instead it squishes the existing keyboard keys smaller to make room. Perhaps this is an iOS limitation, but it reduces typing accuracy significantly.

Dont purchase!

I bought this app because I wanted that extra raw that includes numbers. However, It is doing the auto correction even though I is turned it off! Waste of money!

Current Keyboard integration

Keyboard does not work with current keyboard. As a result, the autucorrect is worse horrible. It cannot pick up what seems like simple errors. You have to delete your current keyboard which means any leading your factory keyboard has made will be wiped out. Mad I wasted money.

Awful app. Please refund my .99 cents

First Im not one to write negative reviews. I often say things work as theyre made to, its not the apps fault it didnt work as I wanted. However this app instantly made typing inconsistent and slow. Often the keys would appear as if I hit one but nothing would appear. Simply adding the swipe to highlight as "swipes election" has was too cumbersome. To the developer Id like my 99 cents back

Not worth buying

I tried it out despite the mediocre reviews, but I have to agree. This app sucked. Typing is horrible, autocorrect doesnt work at all. A wasted $1.

Didnt work well

Had trouble with passwords. Number row would not show when typing passwords. Also could not pull up any keyboard in text messages.

hoping they will add all these features

please make it show on password and also the shortcut wont work.

Close, but yet so far

A few fixes and this would be the best keyboard on any device ever. 1) Allow us the option of removing the extra row. Keys can be too small with it. 2) Fix some auto-correct issues, notably "i" should be "I" when its a word. 3) Fix some keyboard behaviors, notably the apostrophe should revert back to the alpha keyboard when entered (because an apostrophe is usually followed by a letter or a space). In general, follow what Apple does, but allow us to swipe select the keyboard and show case.

Wast of money

Doesnt correct your words good at all, its glitchy and complicated

Nope

Gave it a shot despite the reviews and out $.99. Even if you press the right key you get the wrong letter

Dont buy it for now!

Doesnt work as promised and NO WAY TO DISABLED AUTOCORRECTS function. Buggy and bad. Use to buy the jailbreaked version, but developer ask me for money after each new big release!!! Horrible.

Love it but hate it

I love the keyboard but there could be some improvements. I wish the keyboard would have a personal dictionary. I wish the size was a little taller. And the auto correct is a little buggy. Other than this I love the keyboard.

Misses Keystrokes When Typing Quickly

I like the fact that the keyboard is simple and resembles the iOS default with the addition of the number keys, however, if I type quickly in Safari and such, on my iPad Air 2 / iOS 9, keystrokes are frequently missed and the resulting string does not match what I typed.
