Exactly! That's the main innovation. What you can build on top (like a text algorithm) is adding speed and efficiency.

Very good point. Steve would be proud of Keybee Keyboard!

Because is a huge effort to make a full swipe algorithm based on a potential custom layout and Keybee keyboard is still a one person project. Marco.

Acceleration is a good metric indeed. And distance was the easiest metric to work on to get some useful data to create the layout. Marco.

Well, to create the layouts I had to consider a lot of combinations. Some are really good like "ing" but they could compromize others. That's why I decided to made it fully customi…

That's a mandatory message for any input method. Keybee keyboard is not collecting anything and the code is all available on github.

I dismissed Keybee keyboard because iOs was not friendly to third party keyboards.

Even Swiftkey dropped from iOs. Main reason for me to dismiss Keybee Keyboard from iOs is that for some forms (like password) you are forced to use the apple keyboard. That's a no-…

Typewise came later and their approach is very different than Keybee Keyboard. They only shares the hey keyshape but on a qwerty layout.

I also would like to implement all those texting algorithms but I need the help of the open source community at this moment. Cheers!.

Keybee Keyboard uses a third party api called one-signal for push notifications, so they need the device location.

I'm Marco the Keybee Keyboard creator. Thank you really really a lot for your comments. Now Keybee keyboard is totally free and open source so all your ideas and suggestions migth …

For my experience working on iOS is very complex for third party keyboards. Also Google has problems with it. :-(

Hello. For now Keybee it is not optimized for smartphones in landscape mode.

Text algorithms (swipe, prediction and autocorrection) create issues on performances of the mobile devices (swiftkey for instance is super slow) and often mistakes due to misunders…

Thank you for the comments. Please note that I made this Keybee Keyboard first for myself because I could not type good in a qwerty smartphone. Secondly I decided to make it for ev…

Perfect..!!!

That's amazing..!!!

I already answered at your question. There's no difference between qwerty and keybee for your specific argument. Also the other user answered to you.

I will fix it soon, I promise..!!! Thank you for your feedback.

Of course. There is no difference between qwerty and keybee in term of instantness. The difference is between other alternative layouts which claims to be quicker even if they do n…

You can move it to the left or right.

There is a specific settings for dot-space combination. Check on Keybee settings.

No need to be flipped because the Keybee arrangement starts from the center of the keyboard. So it is optimized for left and right handed at the same time.
