Unwanted recent keyboard changes

How do I get the comma back on my keyboard? Just recently, the comma transformed into an @ symbol, which I don't mind looking for on the symbols keyboard when (rarely) I need one. I use the comma every message. Other posts elsewhere indicate pressing the space bar would bring up a comma on the suggestion bar -- it doesn't. How can I get the comma back on the keyboard? And if you have any insight, why would a developer purposefully do something so annoying to begin with?

Do you have access to the settings of the keyboard app?

There may be a selection that allows some customization.

Anyway, there are many, many, many different keyboard apps.

Depending upon your needs/wants, there is one out there that you might like.

Personally, I like Simple Keyboard and Hacker's Keyboard.

Simple is cool, because punctuation and numbers are visable on all keys, and are accessed by a long press.

And don't forget, you can have more than one keyboard app.

I use Simple for portrait view, and Hacker's for landscape view.
