I took a look earlier today, and I didn't see anything in the IOS Gboard to give you number keys, but when looking for different languages, I saw a lot that were listed as coming soon, so maybe it's on the way.

BTW, on Android, I still had my old Google Keyboard, and I was able to add the English US PC keyboard to my S7 and switch to it, which gave me the number row. Right after that Gboard became available, so it turns out that was just a good learning experience, but otherwise was time I could have saved!

If anyone finds a way to customize Gboard, let us know.
I think, from the research I've done, the number row is only going to be 
available on Android.
There is nothing about a number row in the iOS Gboard settings.

I have not played with the Gboard iOS app but I re-read the article Richard 
included in one of his posts on this thread and it mentions that Gboard is 
customizable. I don't know if customizing is required in order to show the 
number row on the keyboard but you had to customize the Fleksy keyboard to do 
this.

Hello Mary,

I, also, have an Android phone; a Samsung Galaxy S 6.  I was going to get a 
Note 7 but, as I am not a pyromaniac...  (smile).

Anyway, the default keyboard on my S 6 has a number row and it truly is 
convenient.  I've never checked but I think the default keyboard on the S 6 is 
the Samsung keyboard.  So, perhaps we should look for a Samsung third-party 
keyboard, for iOS, instead of the Google keyboard.

For many, many years, now, I and others have been lobbying for a number row to 
be added to the native iOS keyboard.

Hi Richard,
That is kind of depressing. There's supposedly an update that puts the number 
row in on this keyboard. I have an android phone as well as my iPhone, and I 
have been waiting to get the update to the Google keyboard, but so far it's not 
showing up for me. I had the impression from what I read, that the number row 
was already present in the current version of Gboard on iOS. So what you are 
reporting is disappointing.

Mary,
I just installed it after reading the article I sent a little while ago.
On the iPhone 5s, there is no number line, you have to toggle numbers the same 
way. But, there is a period just to the right of the space bar.
Also, if you have touch typing on, touching and releasing the return key enters 
it, while on the native iOS keyboard you have to double tap.
Plus it does have the activate google search right there.
Interesting.

Mary,

As always, my greatest concern about using third-party keyboards is the fact 
that everything one enters can be accessed by the developer.  I believe there 
is a ULA that one must agree to when installing a third-party keyboard, is 
there not?

That is apparently the name of the Google keyboard for iOS. I wonder if anyone 
has tried it and whether it works with voiceover. For me, the most interesting 
thing about it is that it seemingly includes a number row, without having to 
switch like you do with the standard Apple keyboard. That would be nice.
