How it works

The 5-TILES keyboard has only 5 keys, each key containing 5 or 6 letters. The letters are distributed in alphabetical order, making it easier to find the letter you want.

On each key there is one underlined letter. These letters can be typed with a single tap. This happens with the letters "a" (Blue key), "g" (Green key), "m" (Yellow key), "s" (Orange key) and the red button is for space.

To write all the other letters check the position of the letter you want to type in the row of letters of that key. For example the letter "b" is the second in the row of the blue key, so you must hold down the blue key and slide your finger to the second key (green key). The letter "c" is the third in the row so you must hold down the blue key and slide your finger to the third key (yellow key).

This logic applies to all keys

Easy, right?

You will see that the letters "u" and "z" are at the top of the Orange and Red keys respectively. These letters can be typed by simply sliding your finger from the key upwards.

With the 5-TILES keyboard you can also write numbers from 0 to 9, punctuation symbols, special characters for 9 different languages and symbols with specific swiping sequences.

You can also use the 5-TILES keyboard to edit your text without having to touch the screen, such as delete a letter, delete an entire word, delete all text, redo or undo text, copy and paste text and many more options directly from the 5-TILES keyboard.

Word Prediction/Dictionaries
