Handiest Armenian keyboard on the App Store

My Armenian keyboard of choice on the Store. Thanks to developers.
A few improvements would make it even better:

1. Ability to disable automatic comma insertion before conjunctions. As որ is not only a conjunction but also a pronoun, there sometimes is no need for a comma, so I have to go back and delete it myself. Also, when writing to a friend, one might as well like to omit the commas altogether, so I guess introduction of this option would make sense.

2. The boot (՝) in the layout is not the actual Armenian boot but the Latin grave accent mark, which looks quite unnatural next to Armenian letters. I overcame this problem by copy-pasting the actual boot into the context characters.

3. And lastly, one major improvement I would like to see is to have the ability to move the cursor with the space button. As I am too lazy to grab the actual caret every time and move it, I have to switch to the English keyboard, move the cursor with its spacebar, and then switch to the Armenian keyboard again. Hellish experience, believe me.

I would appreciate even the minor improvements. Thanks a lot.

Developer Response ,

Update: The new 3.4 version has been release with 1. and 2. requests included !
---
Thank you very much for thorough feedback !
Let me go over you suggests

1. I'll make an option in container app to disable completely automatic comma addition in next release
2. Thanks for spotting out this bug, will be fixed in next release
3. I've already considered implementing this feature. Technically its possible to implement but the functionality that can be achieved by custom keyboards is not close to the functionality of system keyboards, and the technical effort is a bit significat, so I might get back to this feature some time int future with big update.

Thank you for using the keyboard and for writing the feedback :)

Please adjust for iPhone X

Not sure if this is related to me changing my phone, but my favorite Armenian keyboard has stopped putting capital letters. It tries a few times and then goes to some weird looking outlay. Maybe it’s a coincidence, but I didn’t have this issue on my previous iPhone 7 using the same OS version (I’m on 11.2.5 now). Whatever the reason, please fix, I don’t want to switch to other keyboards. I like yours better :)

An answer to your question: please share an email address at which I can contact you. I will record my screen and send you a video. Couldn’t find another way to respond to your message, sorry.

Update: IT WORKS! Thanks for your prompt actions, Levon jan. Version 2.8 for the win!

Character preview

Please give us an opportunity to turn off the “character preview” option. it’s annoying and a good reason to uninstall the app. THANK YOU
