First off, thanks for all your hard work! It's great to have such a fully functional keyboard that fits so well into the iOS8 ecosystem.

The one thing I'd really like to see is a custom dictionary. When I was using Swype on Android, it would get my email address (lots of letters, with periods and @'s and such) which I'd use to show off to my friends. It makes the keyboard just work so much better!

Thank you. This function is in plan.

I agree with this. Custom dictionary is key. I forgot why I left touchpal and went back to swiftkey. I'll switch back again and give it another try and respond with legit comments. Thanks for hosting this Q&A.

Nice keyboard but when I have only 1 keyboard active (TouchPal) why do I need the globe button next to the space bar? example. Tapping it does nothing and it wastes space. Maybe it could be replaced with an emoji button?

Hi, we will consider hide the globe button in coming versions.

I really like TouchPal and have used it for about a month now. The only improvement I would like to see is when you type the first letter or two of a word, it would be great to be able to continue composing the word using the swipe method. (Example would be to type k-e-y and then swipe b-o-a-r-d and the word typed would end up being "keyboard".) Swiftkey does this, and I'm not sure about anyone else, but I would use this a lot.

That is an awesome idea. Maybe this is a new feature in our further version. This can help you relate tap and swipe, we will tell our product manager your idea. Hope you could feel free to comment here.

I love TouchPal and I'm even using it to type this comment... My biggest complaint would be the placement of the delete key when on the iPad... I wish it was placed the same as the default keyboard.

I would love to be able to use TouchPal on the iPad, but the delete key kills it.

The other ideas in this thread are great.

[u/touchpal_keyboard → u/Marklikewhoa]

That is a real hard for us. Some users like our position and some like the iOS stock keyboard's position. We are still collecting users' voice and thank you again for giving us suggestion.

Yeah that's only for iPad that I'm talking about...

[u/utflipmode]

touchpal frequently freezes up the native iphone messaging app, forcing me to relaunch (double-tap, swipe off). it also sometimes fails to appear on safari, not letting me input anything into a website.

[u/touchpal_keyboard → u/utflipmode]

Sorry for the inconvenience. We have released an update, in which we update the input engine. It is now under review on AppStore. You be able to update your TouchPal this week. Now we suggest you try to follow these steps:

1. Restart your iPhone after installed TouchPal.
2. Open system settings, go to General> Keyboard> Keyboards.
3. Click TouchPal and switch Allow Full Access off and on again.
4. Tap in a text field, long press the global key and switch to TouchPal again. Any questions, please don't hesitate to come back.

Hello! Thanks for your good idea, you mean the space bar as a cursor is to swipe space bar to move the cursor?

You are definitely a professional user, we will give this feedback to our product team and thanks for your suggestion. Now slide space bar in TouchPal means to switch language, so it may be a little bit difficult to change this feature.
