Some minor UI Suggestions #941

Closed at-pyrix closed 4 months ago

Hello!

The app UI is quite good already, however there are some minor tweaks to the UI that may make it look a bit better.

  1. Increase padding for numpad: Right now, the font size of the numbers looks pretty huge, which bugs me a bit. Here's what I mean:

Gboard

Also, can we please have an option to change the color of the "?123" button? I have OCD and it really triggers me to not have symmetry 😂.

  1. Another suggestion would be to remove the three dots under the buttons that can be long pressed. Ik it's for usability, but it really is quite necessary, plus it clutters the keyboard a bit. Best thing would be to have it completely optional.

  2. Option to change the font size.

  3. Option to change the corner radius, or just make it a bit less round.

Anyway these are all just my personal preferences, implementing it is completely upto you. However, I do think that this will go a long way in making the keyboard feel more polished.

  2. Turn off "show functional hints" in settings
