Anybody else have their keyboard size change on SwiftKey? The option to change keyboard size has disappeared. This is particularly annoying on a phone this size. I prefer the smaller keyboard. There goes one hand operation.

I just received an update a couple hours ago. If you hold the number key in the bottom left corner you get a pop-up with new options for keyboard size, layout, and even a compact (one-handed) mode. Pretty slick. Still waiting for them to add the option of a fifth row for numbers similar to the stock Note keyboard.

That's exactly what I'm looking for!

If you go into settings > support > make a suggestion, it takes you to a page full of suggestions you can vote one. Type in number in the box and the first result is what we're looking for. I go and vote from time to time hoping they will do something about it eventually.

Figured some of you may also be interested to see this. Just got 2 emails from SwifKey, the first saying the optional number row feature is "Under Review" and then a couple minutes later saying it's going from Under Review to "Planned"

I hope they get this done soon. I've been waiting for this feature for a while and I'm really happy to see that SwiftKey is listening.

Yup, SwiftKey confirmed they're (finally!) working on Top Number Row and, wait for it... Emojis. :D Now, if they only added custom skin support, SK would be perfect.

Undock is the best!

I find the undocked mode in the Samsung Keyboard way less obtrusive. Besides, that huge, ugly button tab at the bottom? Really??!!

I just downloaded SwiftKey. I like the customization.
One thing I'm going to miss is the option that when I have my stylus out I like the option of handwriting input. Is there a way to have both?

Not at the moment. SwiftKey is so good it's worth losing that feature. I would hardly use that feature anyway.

Loving this SwiftKey but sometimes it goes back to the stock keyboard. Mainly when I am browsing on Chrome. Not sure what is causing it.
