I'm gonna set a picture of my cute new Desi GF as the custom background image for my Google keyboard lol Also, I hope there's a "cyan-bluish" theme color option available so it can match the style of my OS.

        I like Swiftkey, because
        - It learns as you type. Do not need any steps to add into a dictionary.
        - Prediction is good for different languages too.
        - Top row numbers and when clicked on symbols they have a phone dialer like number arrangements.
        - Emoji prediction while typing too.

        I hope soon they will bring theme customization too like Google and TouchPal.

            Anonymous, 15 Jul 2016Still no option for a top row of numbers? Absolutely useless Yup!
            Such a shame. Great working letters keyboard but until they have a top numbers like the Samsung keyboard - it's a no go for me.
            Why does Google insist on ignoring the most obvious practicalities? It's a bit like their back button being on the bottom left of their phones. Fine if the majority of the world's population was left handed!!
