v1.2.7

Recent fixes (v1.2.7)

• Added a "LightOS-style Key Spacing" setting (Typing settings, off by default). The v1.2.6 fix that extended the first/last key in each row out to the screen edge changed the keyboard's touch targets slightly from the original Light Phone 3 layout. Most people won't notice, but if you'd rather have the exact original LightOS spacing back, this toggle restores it - each key's hitbox reverts to stopping at its own visible width, with no other behavior changes.

See the README for details and prior release notes.

v1.2.6

What's new

• Extended edge-key hitboxes to the actual screen edge. The leftmost and rightmost key in every row (letters, numpad, and the "123"/mic/backspace keys) were harder to hit accurately than interior keys, since each row's centered layout leaves an empty, non-clickable margin between the outermost key and the true screen edge. Fixed to match how Gboard and iOS handle their own edge keys - visible key positions are unchanged, only the tappable area grew.

Signed with the same key as previous releases, so this installs as a normal update - no need to uninstall first.

v1.2.5

What's new

• Fixed the manually-forced numpad snapping back to letters after one digit. Long-pressing "123" on a field that doesn't declare itself numeric would force the keypad open, but typing a single digit could immediately revert it to letters on some fields. Verified on the official LP3: the numpad now holds through a full sequence of digits and its own backspace.
• Fixed the keyboard getting stuck on symbols, emoji, or the numpad after switching apps. Moving to a new field now always resets to the default alphabet layout (unless that field is itself numeric), matching how keyboards behave elsewhere on Android.

Signed with the same key as previous releases, so this installs as a normal update - no need to uninstall first.

v1.2.4

What's new

• Fixed autocorrect's revert-on-backspace. Pressing backspace right after autocorrect changed a word is supposed to undo the correction and give you back exactly what you typed - the check that detects this had a bug that meant it could never actually trigger. One backspace right after a correction now correctly restores your original spelling.

v1.2.3

What's new

• Fixed backspace across both the standard keyboard and the numeric keypad - it had regressed in several different ways while the keypad and clipboard menu were being built: doing nothing at all in some third-party apps, jumping back several characters or deleting from the wrong spot (especially on the numpad), and occasionally wiping a whole word instead of one character. Root causes and fixes are documented in docs/ime-backspace-debugging.md.
• The underline that appears under a word while it's still being typed is back (it was briefly dropped as a side effect of one of the backspace fixes).
• Added screenshots of every keyboard layout to the README.

v1.2.1

What's new

• Manual numpad trigger - long-press the "123" key to force the numeric keypad open on any field, even ones that don't declare themselves as numeric. The keypad now has its own "ABC" key to get back to letters, and the dismiss chevron returns to the alphabet on the first press instead of closing the keyboard.
• Fixed the numpad's backspace glyph rendering oversized compared to the digit keys around it.

v1.2.0

What's new

• Automatic numeric keypad - phone number, PIN, and other numeric-only fields now show a dedicated 3x4 dial-style keypad automatically, instead of the full QWERTY layout with a manual "123" tap. Switches back to the normal keyboard the moment you move to a text field.

Signed with the same key as v1.0.0/v1.1.0, so this installs as a normal update - no need to uninstall first.

v1.1.0

What's new

• Copy & Paste menu — long-press Space to open a clipboard history menu, in the same style as the autocorrect suggestions strip. Toggle it off in Settings > Typing if you don't want it.
• Redesigned Settings — split into Keyboard Layout / Typing / Voice Dictation screens instead of one long scrolling list.
• Fixed Return key — now submits search/send/go/done fields (like every other keyboard) instead of always inserting a newline.
• Fixed Backspace — was silently failing to delete in some apps; now uses the standard, reliable deletion method.
