No but I love swiping left and right with 2 fingers to go backwards and forwards. Highly recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not me. I have enough trouble as it is with my spatulate fingertips, even with a 'big buttons' keyboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been using this since before it was a thing the main keyboards let you do, I just checked my emails for the first Swype beta, and it turns out I've been doing it since 2010. I think I'm a gesture typing hipster I find it much, much quicker than normal typing on a touchscreen, and I can use it without looking at the screen. I still miss Swype, it was so much better than Google keyboard or Swiftkey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted September 22, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted September 22, 2021 2 hours ago, sidcow said: Does absolutely anyone use the keyboard inut method where you swish your finger around the letters? Yes. It's quicker and less awkward than tapping on a touch screen for me. It does **** up on occasion, it ultimately is guessing at what you want to be typing at times and some words do not lend themselves to it (it'll mess up of/if a lot, weird/word etc due to the closeness of the letters), but on the whole it's a far better solution for using a touch screen keyboard for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do, but I don't like texting so every reply is short, border-lining rude. If I do need to write a essay I've started going the horrible "talk to my phone" rout. I have to look around to make sure no one sees me though before I start. Google does a much better job typing than I do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I can imagine how my thought-controlled input would go. Random tangents halfway through sentences. Extra words like 'boobs' and 'fanny' inexplicably dotted throughout the text. Awkward bouts of honesty like 'Jesus is this person actually this stupid'. It'd be a nightmare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
