Long-Press Language Selection Key

Post by Clegs »

Recently I have had the need to type in several languages on my phone: English, Spanish, Portuguese, Esperanto, and Arabic. The problem comes with having so many languages that it takes forever to cycle through them. When one text is in Spanish and the next is in Arabic and the next in Esperanto, you soon see my dilemma. I spend way too much time cycling through different languages.

Would it be possible to make a long press on the language button open up all the available languages to pick from so I just hold the button down and slide my finger over to change languages?
