Great keyboard app for one hand

love this app! Typing this with one hand now! now i can type on subway with one hand and another hand holding the handhold

Meh

The idea behind the keyboard is an interesting one, but the efficiency in the design was not. The totally new layout is not very easy to learn, and why it had to be a totally new layout is beyond me. It's not a very good design in my opinion, and I really hope that the AFKPU keyboard will be released(Google it. That is one very intuitive keyboard and its different keyboard layout actually makes a lot of sense). Additionally, the button placement for some keys, especially the punctuation and space buttons were poorly placed and not very ergonomic. They force the typist to shift their hands while typing, and on such a crucial key like the space button, this is a very bad thing. With all the shifting and movement needed, the typist might as well use a normal two handed keyboard. Overall, this app is not worth your time and I strongly discourage against downloading it. However, if you have a very flexible thumb and an iPhone 6plus, there's no harm in downloading just to try it. The download takes seconds, and maybe you might like it. But for the majority of people who have small phones and normal thumbs, this app will not be useful.
