FanTAStic!
Excellent app that just keeps getting better all the time. Leave your phone at home and relax with the ability to text and reply with your watch. And I defy anyone to beat the immediate response and support that Adam provides. Can’t beat it!The_DCDude

Thank you so much for the positive review! :)Good Idea, but hard to use on the Apple Watch
I just downloaded the app to my watch after seeing it being suggested on iDrop news. It is hard to use the app on the watch being that when you thinking your pressing the “back” button, the screen goes to the preview page. Also, to reply to a text message, I would have to go to my app layout on the watch, then select the keyboard, and then type the message and then be taken back to the messages app to select who I want the message to go to.
But again, good ideaShow lessTechie 84

Hi, That issue should be fixed over the next couple of days so please keep an eye out. Unfortunately, that is due to the locked down nature of watchOS. To speed things up, you can add the Shift Keyboard Complication to your Watch Face or Double Click the Digital Crown to go back to the previous app. Thanks! UPDATE: The update is now available! Please consider updating your review :)This app is not what it seems!!
I’ll say I was excited to see a full keyboard available on Apple Watch, but like the title says, this app is not what it seems. The app is NOT integrated into the native Apple Watch OS Messages app like the emoji keyboard is for example, even though it does integrate into the Messages app on the iPhone OS. To use this you have to go into the Shift app on the Apple Watch and “create a new message” every time. It doesn’t matter if there is a previous text conversation on the watch or not, you still have to go through the Shift app to use the full keyboard. If you receive a text and want to reply to it, you have to memorize all portions of the text and then leave the Messages app and open the Shift app to reply using the full keyboard. Also, you can use this app with the Messages app only, and no other messaging apps. I will say that the keyboard is pretty accurate and has a few user settings available, outside of that it was a waste of the $1.99 that it costs. I’d like to get my money back, but I’m guessing that’s not going to happen, especially since the price of the app has doubled in the last few months. So if you’re looking for a full keyboard app that is integrated into the Apple Watch Messages app, SAVE YOUR MONEY, BECAUSE THIS IS NOT THAT APP. This app could’ve had so much potential, but in my opinion it fell on its face.Show lessTxhd01

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! Unfortunately this is due to the locked down nature of watchOS which I have no control over. The way the app works is stated in the description. To speed up app switching, you can double click the Digital Crown to switch between your most recent apps. No keyboard app for Apple Watch can integrate with the Messages app directly. This is currently the only way to use a keyboard with it. If you're still unhappy with the product, please email info@adamfoot.uk to arrange a refund. Thanks, AdamAPPLE WATCH DOES NOT SUPPORT 3rd party keyboards
Great app but it’s useless! All of the advertising makes it seem like it will replace the current Apple Keyboard- or lack of one that is. However after purchasing I found out that Apple watches do not SUPPORT 3rd party keyboards. Very disappointed. Should be made clear on all of your advertising.Christopher B Katz
Good Potential, But...
Thus app has good potential, but it doesn't appear to support sending a typed message to an existing group PM in Message (or I can’t figure out how to do so) - just to individual recipients. I often need to reply to group messages, so I am not finding it very useful at this time.tntracy

Hi, sorry about this! It appears the Messages app doesn’t support this for some reason but think I may have a way of doing it. Hopefully I’ll be able to implement it soon!Kuwait
Kindly could u make it work with iphone arabic language . Thanks its fine with my apple watch english but no arabic characters
Also its not working on my ipad .Thanks alot🌹bu-yaser
Good idea in theory
I wanted a better, quicker input than the stock approach of drawing the letters. I thought this had promise but it took much longer to try to type than draw out each letter individually. The full keyboard is not as responsive as it should be and the precise one takes too long to scroll up and down to get to the letters at either end of the alphabet. Maybe if there was a swipe typing option for the full keyboard it might be more useful but for now I’ll stick with drawing letters with my finger.Show lesscbriody

Hi, sorry to hear this. Please email info@adamfoot.uk with ways I could make the experience better for you! UPDATE: The keyboard has been improved a lot recently. I'd love if you could try it out and update your review accordingly. :)It’s ok.
It’s great to have a keyboard on my watch but to be honest, I was a little disappointed. I was hoping it had swipe to type. Since it’s a smaller keyboard, it made sense to me. I think I liked FlickType better.ETSrnka
Love the Idea
I followed all these steps yet I am unable to use the keyboard on my Apple Watch series 5
However I am able to use it on my iPhone
Unfortunately I PURCHASED this app so that I can use it on my watch
Please help.Yoly26

Very hard to use, unless you have tiny fingers. Still , nice to have, works better than flick type.Omnikey
