Is it possible to customize the Period Key location on iPhone?

!Who put the period-key in that particular spot on the iPhone keyboard?Taking part of the right side of spacebar-key and adding in a period-key in its location IS an annoyance… when attempting to push/select the spacebar-key.How many times does it take to type out a sentence completely without a period needlessly popping up on the screen before completing a sentence?There is no option to change the location of any of the keys on the iOS/iPhone keyboard.The only option that I have seen was to pay somebody to install their correctly laid out keyboard design.Why?

No, you cannot modify the built in keyboard on iOS. It is baked into the operating system. I rarely tap the . key myself. I use the double tap the space bar to insert a period at the end of a sentence.
