  this will either make your other keys smaller or the whole keyboard a lot bigger...
  neither of it makes much sense...
  get used to the secound page. this is just a habit which takes some time to change, as you need to adapt to the new layout... few days and you're used to it

  I think giving the option would be a good idea. Maybe in pro version?
  Making the keyboard bigger altogether would not be a problem on many phones these days:
  Screens get bigger and bigger, especially vertically with new crazy aspect ratios. Many have enough space for the row of numbers.
  Constantly switching to number pad is tedious when you type a password for example which can have alternating numbers and letters.
  Since it would be an option, it would harm nobody.

  I also would prefer not having to switch to type a number. I think it could work the way it already does for : or '
  The numbers could be displayed in grey and typed by a longer press on the corresponding key. Therefore it also does not make the keyboard bigger - but the typing faster.

  I really want this. I don't want to go to another page just to type a number.

  I agree with Fabian. There are ways to make this unintrusive. Swiping down on keys to get numbers (of course then, disabling the "swipe down to undo auto-correct", which could be retained on the space-key --> there shall be a suggestion for this soon™) is one option.

  just add the numbers to the existing characters, to be activated if pressed longer than a second, like in my Lineage keyboard. Simple, he?

  In my opinion the empty space on the side could also be used. Be it for numbers or sth else,but i really think clicking on the second page for numbers is an inconvenience

  I really like how apple integrated the number row. You swipe down on the top row to add a number. It's much faster than long pressing and doesn't interrupt the writing flow.
