Typewise Custom Keyboard

Battery drain

Some tips; 1. there’s no way people will start a (trial) subscription just to get 2 languages (everybody speaks at least 2 nowadays) because the app has a steep learning curve which takes time to invest in. 2. No swiping means there’s no way it’s going to be faster than the current built in keyboard with iOS 17.

Every now and then I go back to this keyboard to try out if it has been improved enough to become my daily driver. I like the concepts. The improved layout. The automatic language detection (I write in 4+ languages). The swipe anywhere to delete (this is brilliant!) But it just slows me down to much. The auto auto correction misses too many typing mistakes. It is very very slow to correct which causes me to slow down every time to wait and see whether it caught my mistake or I have to go back to correct. Also, there is no preview of the correction. In the end I always go back to Apple keyboard. As I type this I can see how I make the wildest typos but the Apple keyboard correctly corrects like 95% of them. I can type crazy fast and only seldom have to go back to correct. I wish typewise would be just as fast plus support for multiple languages. I hate having to manually switch on Apple keyboard.

Werkt redelijk op ipad, werkt niet op iphone, toetsenbord is dan microscopisch klein. De spellingscontrole en autocorrectie werken voor geen meter. Fout gespelde woorden worden fout gecorrigeerd en bij uitgeschakelde autocorrectie niet herkend. Bovendien is er geen lerend vermogen. Alle, maar dan ook alle keyboards die ik ken doen dit beter. Een andere omissie is het ontbreken van een toets om het toetsenbord te verbergen. De komma en de punt zijn verkeerd geplaatst op de QWERTY layout, de punt hoort rechts onder en de komma zou in plaats van de punt moeten komen, links onder. Er is dus veel ruimte voor verbetering. Verkeerd gespelde woorden worden niet herkend, als ze met autocorrectie aan wel herkend, worden ze meestal vervangen door verkeerde alternatieven. Nieuwe woorden worden niet opgeslagen dus die moeten iedere keer opnieuw worden gecorrigeerd als ze als onherkenbaar worden gedetecteerd.

Too bad no support for whatsApp? No full integration in settings possible? Just purchased pro but i am not happy now

Takes a bit getting used to hex layout, but seems worth it on iphone. Utterly useless on ipad as it drops key presses and turns the resulting partial words into gibberish. Ws dityping speed o 1/4. That last sentence said "slows down typing speed to 1/4" without babysitting each typed key.

What i’m really missing is the back-space key for corrections.

Works seamlessly, typing is a lot easier!

It doesn’t show up in the keyboards section of the iPhone’s settings. So there is no way to activate it and use it.

I have been using it for two months and it remains an annoying keyboard. Lots of typing errors, especially with capitals that you don’t want and periods. When switching back to Apple’s keyboard I found out that the standard keyboard is not so bad after all. Ps: the Auto-correction of this keyboard is not very useful.
