nKey is the first keyboard to give you access to the number keys on the main keyboard panel. Adding a 5th row of keys allowed us to consolidate all keys onto only 2 panels instead of the normal 3, so you can quickly find the key you want.
● Number keys appear as top row on main panel
● Replaced the predictive text area with a 5th row of keys
● Contains all basic keys from Apples standard keyboard, just on 2 panels instead of 3
● Your keystrokes are never transmitted to developers servers
● Auto-correction
● Auto-capitalization
● Shortcuts
● Languages supported: English
● Auto-correction regions supported: Australia, Canada, India, United Kingdom, United States

Too expensive for now...
Its a good start but its buggy. A good example, try to use it to write a review. Everything on the screen disappears... Only in English and no possibility to add any other characters by pressing and holding keys like Apple keyboards do. Unfortunately, it removes the predictive line and the auto-correction does not give you the choice to keep what you are typing. It tries to correct words without asking your opinion. Not convenient when you type words that are not in the internal dictionary or or codes. You will spend you time deleting the changes done by the auto-correction and retyping your own text. I wont use it until those problems are fixed.

Loss of default features
When typing, the keys no longer pop-up as-you-type, so you cant easily see which key youre hitting like the default Apple keyboard. As well the auto-correct does not show its suggestion option pop-up (above or below the word), and simply defaults to changing misspelled words instantly without warning or option, again unlike the default keyboard. The numbers would have been handy if it didnt mean losing two of the best features of Apples default keyboard, thus creating a haphazard typing experience. Uninstalled.

Slow
You have to wait about 10 seconds for each tap to register. Garbage.

A hit and a miss
Having the numbers on main screen and simplifying all switching to just 2 screens is very appealing. Promising, but so buggy I couldnt even write this review using the nKey keyboard. It stops typing. Big miss: apostrophe is on 2nd screen. If they could get the period on the 1st screen, they could do the often-needed apostrophe. But if this improves, I might use it for real.
