Comments on Graffiti for Android for Android

★★★★★ Let's me WRITE like on a Palm Pilot. I love this app, it inputs handwriting just like my Palm Zire used to. On Android 5 you have to go to Google Keyboard, long press on the globe icon, go to "keyboards", find Grafiti & turn it on. Then you have to select it as your input method. The instructions in Help are WAY out of date. As others have mentioned, the size of the input area does not grow if you have a big screen so on 5" phone it's very small. It's a shame they're not keeping this app up-to-date.
★★★★★ Best thing ever. Once you enable the keyboard in the input methods in settings, it's the best thing ever. Easily include advanced punctuation without switching interfaces, letters, numbers, and a high level of recognition. Even on my Samsung Galaxy S1 the input space is perfect and I can write about twice as fast with Graffiti than with any of the included keyboards. (The standard keyboards are too small for my hands so I spend too much time fixing errors.) I learned Graffiti on my Apple Newton 110 before Palm introduced their own PDA. Now I cannot live without it on any handheld device. It's on every smart phone I've had, and it's going on my tablet. Faster, smoother, and easier than the keyboard, simple to learn, small screenprint, and has made me love my smartphone. Using on Samsung Galaxy S and the Samsung Note 10.1. I don't understand why people have problems switching either, the OS has a keyboard icon that lets you choose the input method. Getting the reference is as simple as swiping from the middle of the input area up and out of the box. The size of the area can be small on the smartphone if you don't disable the language switching icons (disable Japanese input options).
★★☆☆☆ Writing area too small Loved this app on my HTC but no good on my Samsung S6 Edge. The writing area is way to small for my fat fingers. Bummer. :(
★★☆☆☆ Natural Input A very natural input method. Sometimes the gesture recognition is "rough". Also on samsung s4 the writing area is too small.
★★☆☆☆ Too sluggish, need improvement Come on myscript keyboard, 7notes, writepad they are improving and graffiti is on letter recognition instead of word

Description by ACCESS CO., LTD. Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Download Graffiti™ - The Keyboard Replacement for Android that uses the stroke-based handwriting recognition system text input system made popular by Palm™ PDAs running PalmOS™.

Features:
-Replaces the Default Keyboard for Android
-Stroke-based text input - Uses the Graffiti™ alphabet text input method
-Easy to Learn
-Speeds up text input with Auto-Capitalization and Word Learning
-English and Japanese language support
-Faster and More Accurate that On-Screen Typing
-Advertisement Free upgrade available with Graffiti™ Pro.

Graffiti™ is a replacement for the built-in on-screen keyboard, also called an input method. With Graffiti, you no longer type but you draw Graffiti characters with your finger or a compatible stylus. Graffiti characters are mostly single-stroke drawings that closely match the usual alphabet, but are simplified to make entry faster and easier. For example, the letter "A" is entered with a stroke that looks like an upside-down "V", saving time that you do not need to cross the "A" in the middle. Same for the letter "T", which is entered almost like a "7".
There are text and numeric input areas, improving the recognition of your input. Strokes drawn in the text area will only be interpreted as letters; strokes in the numeric area will be interpreted as numbers.

If you were a user of a PalmOS based PDA in the past, this will all be very familiar to you as the input method used by those devices was a stylus drawing Graffiti strokes in an input area at the bottom of the display. But even if you were not a Graffiti user before, you should give it a try now if you find that the on-screen keyboard doesn't suit your input style.

Don't know the Graffiti alphabet? After installing and enabling Graffiti, just draw a stroke up from the Graffiti input area into the main display area and the help screen appears. Tap to switch between the six stroke help screens.
