Using KAlgebra 1.2.0 on Android 6.0.1.

The app works beautifully and it's really useful. However, its usefulness is hampered by the lack of a calculator-like keypad in expression evaluation mode. It would not be a problem in an ideal world, but Android phone manufacturers went out of their way to banish hardware keyboards.

Right now if I would like to type an expression, I would have to use the software keyboard which has numbers arranged in an unintuitive way.

Thus, it would be really desirable to have available a touch-based numeric keypad which would include all digits, as well as a decimal point, and the basic operands (+, -, / *). Parentheses would also be desirable.

Thanks again for putting KAlgebra in Android.

Reproducible: Always

I agree that would be good and even one of the most important features to get.
Thanks a lot, I'll see if I can find some time!
