  1. Press and hold with no up move should generate uppercase of the letter

    I need a gesture method to get uppercase letters, especially since Apple text replacement doesn't seem to be compatible with typefinity. I don't want to use the shift key. You already have press-and-hold -- just make uppercase the default, that is, generate the uppercase when user does press-and-hold with no substantial upward movement.

  2. Cap locks not working in IOS 17.4.1 and previos IOS too

    Auto capitalization at the beginning of a sentence is no longer functional in Typefinity on an iPhone 12 Pro Max running iOS 1 7.4.1. Auto capitalization was also not functional in the free iOS. If there's a trick to it, you better post it.

  3. Have question mark available by holding down period key

    This appears to be the only shaded key that does not behave this way. Holding down the period key gives only options for .com .org. and .us and not for a question mark.

    Thank you for your consideration. 🙂

  5. Emoji key, option to remove arrows next to space bar

    This keyboard is great, but can you just add a convenient emoji button, and an option to disable the arrows on either side of the space bar? Those are unnecessary when you can just hold on the space bar and drag.

  6. Can you implement a Linebreak (New Line) character, perhaps with Alt-Return?

    As a musician, I frequently edit song lyrics.
    I use New Paragraph (Return key) to separate the verses, chorus and so on from each other, while I use Linebreaks (Shift-Return or Alt-Return on my Mac, depending on the program) to separate lines within a given verse or chorus. 
    As far as I know, there is no App-independent way to achieve this on the iPad. Pages has a menu command for this, but neither Apple Notes nor Craft have.
    I would greatly appreciate a way to insert a Linebreak character by hitting alt-Return in Typefinity!

  7. Caps lock should also lock special characters in the row of digits

    I'm using Padkeys v4.7.5 on my iPad Pro 12.9 inch with iOS 16. I noticed that when I activate caps-lock by double-tapping on the Shift key, after the second tap the row with digits comes back.

    I often need to type multiple asterisk characters or plus signs in a row. With the current behavior, I need to always keep pressing Shift once again.

    Why not simply lock in the special characters together with the uppercase letters? I mean, in the real world, who is typing all-caps and then needs quick access to numbers on top of that?

    However, coders or…

    Hi, thanks for your suggestion. The current behavior was designed to make typing alphanumeric codes easier. For example airline booking references like 2JXY95, or car license plate numbers. We even reverse the caps-lock behavior in the French keyboard layout (where you have to hit shift to get numbers). 


    If we made the change you suggest, then you would not need to hold shift while typing + or > three times, but then these other cases would become harder. So it really depends which need is occurring more often in the real world. Other thoughts are welcome, thanks!

  8. Best suggestion ever: ADD OPTION TO TYPE ON iPHONE WHILE WRITING ON IPAD

    The typing on iPad is hard because the keyboard take half the screen space. A perfect feature for Typefinity would be to be able to receive input from other devices, like using an iPhone to type and see the text being written on iPad. You need to do the following:
    1 - allow to install the Typefinity keyboard on both iPhone and iPad with the same login
    2 - allow the keyboard to connect via wifi to any other typefinity keyboard running on other devices with the same user logged in.
    3 - allow to open the keyboard on ipad…

  9. Duplication of dictated text

    I use Typefinity on an iPhone 13 Pro. I also have voice control turned off. When I have the Typefinity keyboard selected and use dictation, I have an issue with duplication of the spoken text. It happens a third to half of the time when I dictate. It appears to be a buffer issue, as duplication most often happens if I dictate and then type while the microphone is active, or allow the microphone function to time out. Duplication also can happen if I dictate a text message and hit send while the microphone is active. If I type while…

  10. A different keyboard layout proposal

    I've been looking for a 3rd party keyboard that gives me a 4th row of numbers and for which I do NOT have to give full access to in the iPhone's settings. My primary use case is for an iPhone 13 mini in portrait orientation using the English language.

    In my every day typing I found several things in Typefinity to be lacking. Typical English text makes heavy use of the question mark, apostrophe, and hyphen (which is also used for negative numbers) but none of these characters are too convenient on Typefinity. You could argue that the hyphen and…

  11. New Option Layout in Typefinity 2.0 - feedback

    In Typefinity 2.0, released May 2, 2022, we've tackled a longstanding challenge and reworked the opt layout. Screenshots are attached, and you can read about the motivation and design goals here in our blog post:

    https://naturaldesigns.software/blog/options

    The changes have been rolled out for the most popular languages first: English, German, and Nordic languages. The others will come in future releases.

    Please post your feedback on the layout here. It wasn't easy coming up with the design and though we believe the foundation is good it could probably do with some tuning. We'll make changes based on input under this post.

  12. Improve Romanian layout and swipe on iPhone

    Swiping from a letter to hyphen and back to letter to introduce the hyphen in the middle of the word. Romanian language is formed by many words like this.

    I also suggest to eliminate the space between letters, there is need for these and integrate letters like ă, â, î, ș, in the Romanian keyboard. It's time consuming for a faster typing to press always the symbol button to pop-up these letters. These letters can be changed with the following punctuation marks: [, ', /.

    I attached a screen shot from swype keyboard designed by Nuance where I found the…

    Hello, thanks for your feedback. Could you give some examples of hyphenated words?


    Currently on the iPhone Romanian layout the keys you mention are available by tapping opt. Is this not convenient, or are they not in the places you expect? (Asking because we are getting ready to modify that layout in the Typefinity 2.x series.)


    We do sacrifice some letter space for punctuation keys on the main layout, including ? and !.

  13. Most used special characters bar

    I often use some special characters that need to switch to symbols or use alternate/shift keys or long press popup to access it. It is very annoying having to press 3 different keys to get a special character every time.
    Since those characters are often always the same 2 or 3, it would be useful to automatically add the most used special characters on a additional horizontal bar or in the same bar containing the suggestions, maybe at the very left. Just 4 or 5 keys would be helpful. Just count the frequency of usage of those special characters and…

    Hello, what device and orientation are you typically using? (Reason I ask, there is a lot more horizontal room for such things on an iPad in landscape mode than a phone in portrait mode, but on the other hand more vertical space is available in the latter case.)

  14. Keyboard shortcuts.

    Keyboard shortcuts. When auto complete is on, shortcuts do not expand; I have to select them in the suggestions. If i activate auto complete, I cant even type Ok without having it replaced by "oktober"

  15. Better have Number key expansion characters Above instead of below number keys row ?

    My iPhone.SE.2020 is usually in Portrait orientation – so that's where I use TypeFinity.
    Now wouldn't Typefinity be even more user friendly to some of us if we [optionally] had the "Expansion" popup row from Number keys (top row above the main kbd) displayed on a higher line above the Numbers row, instead of having the expanded options on_a ~lower screen line, because the current ~lower~ arrangement has my hand unfortunately ~covering~ the popped up ~lower~ line of options (while I taphold the expanding Number key in the first place).

    Thanks for reading – writing from Belgium, Europe.

  16. Possible adding Norwegian-nynorsk as language?

    Only last week got aware of Your Brilliant Typefininty Keyboard. It made my week!
    Suppose You didn't invent the "Norwegian Bokmål" dictionary, which is included, yourselves, .
    My iPad has "Norwegian Nynorsk" (which is a second norwegian national approved variant) available.
    Nynorsk makes my days better.
    Is it possible for the exquisite Typefinity-keyboard to use the "Norwegain Nynorsk" glossary?
    Yours sincerely
    G. Storaas

  19. PadKeys crash with SIGQUIT

    Since I installed iPadOS 13, PadKeys has crashed randomly with SIGQUIT. This apparently means that it has attempted an action the system does not like. This has continued with iPadOS 14. This doesn't seem to have any consequences, but is certainly incorrect behavior. I've attached a typical log, and my log of all the events I've observed. These events do not seem to be coordinated with the jetsam events. I have saved all the logs, and could provide them if desired.

  20. Remove incorrect auto correct words

    Often when typing quickly I will create a new jumble of letters that isn't a word, but is similar to a word that the keyboard remembers forever. This means that this fake word is now part of suggestions for real words and gets in the way. Currently there is no way to remove these fake words from suggestions, I'd like to be able to do this please. Thank you.
