Increase buttons size and space between them by combining not useful letters on same button
I'm using 3 languages - English, Russian and Hebrew.
Since, and Russian alphabet has 33 letters, so the keyboard's buttons are to small and not really comfortable to use.
English has 26 letters and Hebrew 27.
In Russian there аре several letters that almost not in use (less than 0.5%), and I think that it's possible to combine that kind of letters (2 per button),
reduce the number of buttons and increase button's size and space between them.
In additional to that, this feature can be configurable to users - to combine not usable letters, for all languages, in purpose to increase size of buttons.

I have the same problem. I recently switched to Android from iPhone. The Russian keyboard on iOS is a great experience as it hides all unnecessary letters and symbols, thus providing wider buttons and facilitating typing . I was disappointed with very narrow Russian Keyboard on SwiftKey, I hardly hit the buttons right due to them being tiny. I hope SwiftKey Support Team will take these comments into account and will make typing in Russian a pleasant experience. Thanks Evgeny for sharing this idea.

Actually it's good for everyone - ability to enlarge buttons, signs on buttons etc.
