For the people asking about phone support, what is the rationale? The Dvorak layout provides better ergonomics when typing with ten fingers, but how would it help on a phone? Is it just you are used to the layout in general from regular keyboards so prefer to keep it the same on the phone?

We’ve now had a number of requests for this, so now it is coming in the next release as an iPad-only mapping. (If you believe it would actually have any use on the phone, please let us know!)

not for now ·

We haven’t heard many requests for this, so for now we are staying focused on delivering the most complete and ergonomic versions of standard layouts that we can.

All right, we'll add a layout for the phone next release.

Yes. That’s a large part of it.
And by constantly thinking Dvorak key placement, our touch typing with ten fingers maintains focus and speed.
It’s correct though that full keyboard ten-finger typing is always best bu that’s regardless of layout.

Forgot to add: the reason I want it on iPhone is that I'm used to Dvorak key positions, and fingers or thumbs don't matter, I remember the key positions either way. Better than QWERTY, anyway, since I can't/don't touch type QWERTY.

Currently using Fleksy Dvorak on iPhone. I'd love to try more Dvorak keyboards, especially a Dvorak swipe keyboard, as there are none of those out currently.

Version 4.1.3 here, on iPhone, no Dvorak? It's not an option anywhere.
