Comments on Dasher for Android

★★★★★ Excellent implementation and open source Really very nice, again not as fast as swype for example but I came to this with interested in the used for disabled people and a totally different way to type, I have to say I'm blow away! Works perfectly with HTC Magic/Dream/the_other_one
★★★★★ I have been waiting for a Dasher app since I got my Android. Not the most practical input method, but definitely the most fun.
★★★★★ An Excellent Keyboard Replacement I do not have a physical imparment that requires me to use Dasher. I choose to use Dasher because it is incredibly fast and intuitive. The learning curve from novice to expert is small. It has is highly customizable especially if you don't mind moving some files around. My only complaint is that the App is not well documented on the developer's website. It would behoove the developer to post a robust tutorial, one which breaks down all the options and their effects on the interface. Also, am in-App method to change the colours being used, would allow users to better integrate the app with their themes. And to the Developer's: Thank You.
★★★★★ Excellent input system, but Dasher “universe” often obstructs text box. Non-issue for text entry, but breaks editing. Need alternative cursor control.
★★☆☆☆ Seems cool and inovative. . But it is quite hard to control and it sometimes randomly restarts on my android And it does not have a search button. Has potential thoUgh.
★★☆☆☆ Verrrrrry slowww
★★☆☆☆ Slowwwww
★★☆☆☆ Very difficult to use. Not as fast as swype and clones.
★★☆☆☆ Terrible Didn't work at alllllll.....
