iOS Layout

[huskyuser]

Hi all. I recently switched from iOS to Android and have had major issues adjusting to the default Android layout. I've recreated the iOS layout to the best of my ability, including symbols + extra symbols.

There are some issues.

1. Keyboard height, spacing and padding isn't exactly perfect. I would need to set this up side by side with an iPhone to get it perfect.
2. Importing the iOS emoji font doesn't work because it, for whatever reason, thinks that the numbers are now emojis (lol) I hear this is going to he fixed soon
3. Making the keyboard the iOS color doesn't work because the blue accent color gets applied to places where it shouldn't.
4. Since the roundness of the keys can't granularly adjusted, you can't get the exact shape perfect.
5. The keyboard layout swircher should say "123" instead of "?123" and I don't think there's a way to change that.
6. No way that I'm aware of that we can get the emoji button UNDER the keyboard like in newer iOS versions. Also, no search bar for emojis. The second part isn't that bad. Using : and searching for emojis that way is much more intuitive than using a search bar.

Would really really appreciate it if someone could get this perfect.

As for preferences I'm not sure how to export those safely. Can someone please let me know?

[huskyuser]

To install:
Copy and paste the json code to their respective sections in languages and layouts > English US
Once that is finished copy the preferences.

Please if someone can make this better and more accurate please try!

[huskyuser]

Also another issue that I'm sure can be fixed even right now, there's no way that I'm aware of that lets you being up the period key only when the URL selector is open.
