Comments on Hacking & Developing Keyboard for Android

Instant favorite! I was actually looking for a high-contrast skin for another keyboard when I came upon this one. For some reason I find it much easier to use than most of the other keyboards I've tried (I am a speedy touch-typist on a hardware keyboard and have been very frustrated by being reduced to hunt-and-peck on a screen). I'm not sure why that is, but I'm so glad of it. Having most of the symbols I regularly need right there where I can find them is a major plus (I write a little inline HTML now and then, and it's been such a drama just trying to get a paragraph tag, for example, when the angle brackets are hidden away four or five taps or swipes beyond the alpha keys... got sick of tearing out my hair, yep). I would give this five stars except I've had a bit of difficulty understanding what some of the extra keys did, and then lost my place in what I was doing... okay, learning curve. I accept that there must always be a learning curve, but I've had my fill of frustration already, and it's made me a little mean ;)

Very Helpful on ASUS Transformer Tablet Very customizable. I can reach all the keys with my thumbs. Has up, down, right, left cursor keys, which are very useful, and I've never seemed them on any other touchscreen phone or tablet keyboard.

Keyboard switching? Edit: found the quick keyboard switch app that makes this all work. ☺ The easy way to switch keyboards (pull down notifications and click choose input method) doesn't work if you hide the keyboard as soon as it loses focus because at the same time the choose input method disappears from the notification area.

Great concept... horrible execution The idea of being able to script a custom keyboard without having to code the framework is a great idea, but the author is well beyond his wheelhouse. For example, Korean is listed as a supported language, but it is written from left to right instead of in batchim, and it is impossible to write blends. Additionally, the structure of the XML is poorly documented leaving the user to extrapolate the structure and options by using the preexisting XML as both template and reference. I still like the application, but it needs a lot of polish. If you ask me, in its present state it is really barely into beta testing. I will keep the application in order to support the developer, but if a free trial/cripple ware or demo version had been available then I never would have purchased the application.
