Question Finishing a word with swipe

3 Upvotes

I just started using EFKey on iPhone. Is it possible to tap the start of a word and then swipe the rest? For example, I tap just the "b" and then swipe "ecause" to end up with "because" as one word. The same question applies if I tap a few letters first, like "wor", and then swipe "king" to get "working". When I try it now, I am not sure if the swipe is supposed to attach to what I already typed or start a new word. Is there a setting for this, or is it not supported yet?

Question Typing in Vietnamese

How does typing in Vietnamese work?

Other than automatic suggestions, I haven’t seen any other way to type Vietnamese characters, which unfortunately makes EFkey unusable for the language as the predictions are never good (regardless of what platforms I’ve used).

Question Is there a way to make the landscape iPad keyboard looks more like the iOS one? The extra buttons are taking up way too much space

I don’t need the shift keys to be this big and I don’t need a caps lock or tab keys. I’m sure they’re good options for some people but hey take up way too much space and mess with my muscle memory. I’m on a 6th gen iPad mini if that matters. I’ve tried finding a way to change it but I’ve had no luck so far.

Love the keyboard on iOS and I want to love it just as much on iPad.

Question Question about the dictionary

2 Upvotes

I downloaded this keyboard and tried swiping the name of the company I work for that is an odd name and is completely unimaginable, and the keyboard got it right. Does EFKey read info from the Contacts app to get this information? How would it know this obscure name that's a made-up word? Maybe I'm missing something obvious. It's also getting some weird last names right.

Bug first of all, i wanna say thank you cuz i had enough of the default ios keyboard as a daily android user lol. there’s just this one bug that i keep seeing though. it’s the tiny wobble that the keyboard does everytime it pops up.

An app that completely replaces the native Apple app. It features a superb design, excellent performance, and the ability to customize the interface to your own preferences. Huge thanks to the developers. The $4.99 price tag is quite reasonable, especially considering the free trial period.

Bug iPad split keyboard

Thanks for the smaller iPad keyboard. Would be nice if it could be in the middle without that big side pane.

But I've caught a bug: The gestures for cut and paste don't work. Holding C and dragging down doesn't register copy

I am currently on the free trial, but will buy it. Simply brilliant!

I could not find any details on family sharing. Is this an option, even for an increased price? I want my teenager daughter's text to be intelligible again.

Feedback Thank you for EFKey: the best iOS keyboard I've ever tried

35 Upvotes

English is not my native language, so sorry for any mistakes. The Ukrainian version is below.

Hi everyone, and a special hi to the developer!

I just want to say thank you for EFKey. When I switched from Android to iPhone, I had a really hard time getting used to the stock iOS keyboard. EFKey literally saved me, and it's the best iOS keyboard I've ever tried.

What I especially love:

  • autocorrect that actually helps instead of getting in the way;

  • a separate number row;

  • switching languages by swiping on the space bar, which feels much more natural and convenient;

  • separate comma and period keys;

  • a button that hides the keyboard (with the stock iOS keyboard it's sometimes not even clear how to dismiss it);

  • the option to open a separate block with large number keys (on Android this was there by default, but iOS doesn't have it at all);

  • a really convenient clipboard, especially together with EFClip;

  • and lots of other little things that together make typing so much more pleasant.

I bought the subscription back in version 2, when it cost $12.99 in my region (Ukraine). After version 3 came out, the price for Ukraine was lowered to $4.99, which is a great decision because it makes the app more accessible to many people. But I don't regret spending $12.99 at all: the keyboard is worth every cent.

The only thing I'd like to ask: please consider adding Ukrainian as an interface language for the app itself. There are a lot of settings, and having them in Ukrainian would make it much easier to understand them and their descriptions.

Thanks again for your work! 🇺🇦

🇺🇦 Українською

Привіт усім, і окремо привіт розробнику!

Хочу просто подякувати за EFKey. Коли я перейшов з Android на iPhone, мені було дуже важко звикнути до стандартної клавіатури iOS. EFKey стала для мене справжнім порятунком, і це найкраща клавіатура для iOS, яку я тільки пробував.

Що мені особливо подобається:

  • нормальна автокорекція, яка не заважає, а допомагає;

  • окремий ряд цифр;

  • перемикання мов свайпом по пробілу, що набагато звичніше й зручніше;

  • окремі кнопки коми та крапки;

  • кнопка, яка ховає клавіатуру (у стандартній клавіатурі iOS іноді взагалі незрозуміло, як її сховати);

  • можливість відкрити окремий блок з великими цифрами (на Android це було за замовчуванням, а в iOS такого немає зовсім);

  • дуже зручний буфер обміну, особливо у зв'язці з EFClip;

  • і ще багато дрібниць, які разом роблять набір тексту набагато приємнішим.

Я купив підписку ще на версії 2, коли в моєму регіоні (Україна) вона коштувала $12.99. Після виходу версії 3 ціну для України знизили до $4.99, і це чудове рішення, бо так застосунок стане доступнішим для багатьох людей. Але мені анітрохи не шкода витрачених $12.99: клавіатура варта цих грошей.

Єдине, про що хотів би попросити: додайте, будь ласка, українську мову інтерфейсу самого застосунку. Налаштувань багато, і з українською було б значно легше розібратися в них та в примітках до них.

Ще раз дякую за вашу роботу! 🇺🇦

Feedback Voice to Text Question

1 Upvotes

When using the voice to text option it always opens up the settings then proceeds to move back to the text input screen. This leaves the settings open in the background.

I’m assuming this is a limitation of iOS or am I missing a setting somewhere?

Other third party apps open a seperate window for VtT input then return and drop the text in, closing the new window permanently.

I chose feedback because I wasn’t sure if this is a bug, my stupidity or by design.

Is there a setting that capitalizes the first letter of each sentence while dictating using the standard microphone button?

The standard English keyboard in iOS will capitalize the first letter of each sentence while dictating. This app will not.

Feedback Restored my faith to my iPad

10 Upvotes

As a primarily Android user, I’ve always been so frustrated with the typing experience on my iPad. Auto-correct never seems to work right, the keys layout is inefficient, you don’t have actions like swiping on the delete key, no multi-clipboard, etc. Most importantly, the layout doesn’t make sense. Full screen is cumbersome when holding the device, the floating keyboard with swipe is too cramped, and somehow everyone has accepted that the magic keyboard is an acceptable solution for a tablet device that’s primarily meant to be held.

And then I found EFKey. A huge THANK YOU to the dev! The split keyboard layout alongside a bunch of thoughtfully built features, has eliminated all typing frustrations and has gotten me to start using my iPad Pro again. I’ve never been happier to support a developer before! Thank you!

Question Stock Emoji Keyboard

0 Upvotes

Is there any way to use the emoji keyboard iOS provides instead of the one from EFKey? The EFKey one works fine and even has some nice features, but since it doesn’t keep the memory of my most used emojis it’s been a bit harder to use. I also find the style of the keyboard (a rectangular background along the bottom) to be a bit less preferable to me, but this isn’t a huge deal. I’ve been loving the app on my Duo and its let me reclaim some of that vertical space, amazing work and I’m hoping to get pro soon!

I’ve been trying out the new 2.3 for a few minutes. Good improvements so far! I am so close to going pro.

Recently there was a post by someone from the EFKey team posting a how-to guide on how to make the EFKey look and feel like the native iOS keyboard. That was really nice. Is there a way to make the number pad look and feel like the iOS native one as well? I like the size and phone-like number pad information on the native version. Is there a way to do it for the number pad as well?

Question I have one very important question about Pro to the creator of EFKey.

3 Upvotes

Firstly I’ll describe the problem.

Currently I am using my main European apple ID for my iPhone and all the stuff. In order to be able to use New SiriAI on my iPhone I have American account logged in to Media and purchases and AppStore so I can use this new Siro app and smarter Siri agent.

And now my question is:
I want to purchase the Pro version of EFKey on my main EU Apple ID so it will stick to this account forever, but the Pro version is managed by Apple.
So if I’ll purchase it on EU account and then log off in App Store and login on my American one to be able to use new siriAI - will the EFKey Pro be still available and working on my iphone?

Thank you in advance for the help and reply! 💙
