[Duplicate] please change or add arabic layout to the standard common layout

Answered

I think it can be more convenient and more typing accurate to Arabic users, if the buttons were larger.
That means less buttons, and more hidden letters under long press.
 
I think it's not that hard for you to make two layouts to choose from, because some with smaller fingers or table users want a hardware like keyboard, while smartphone users want larger buttons. Most of other languages have two layouts in this application.
 
Please do this, as this is the only reason keeping me from using this keyboard. 

and if you can't change the layout, please add new one for arabic users and call it standard arabic layout

and the standard arabic layout its like in gboard. i know you'll tell me that you don't change the arabic layout unless there's a million people vote which it never happend but ill keep do request untill you do because im in love with swiftkey and want it to be perfect for us
