Hi Yiyu. Sorry about that – I changed the pricing model awhile back. Thanks!

iPad handling is stills lacking

Please make the keyboard center in the pop out mode on the iPad.
It is just a small fix but would make it actually useful..

びっくりした

英語の入力がめちゃくちゃ早くなってびっくり。
日本語への変換も出来れば本当に便利なのに…
今は日本語はATOK、英語はHEROです。
慣れてしまうと戻れません。
☆-1は日本語対応への期待分

Not terrible but has some quirks still

tilt to move keyboard doesn't seem to work on ipad pro. Arrows to move keyboard appear in wrong places sometimes. I really wish it would save last location of keyboard. Its really snnoying to have to kerp moving it

Response from developer

Hi Draep. Thanks for the feedback! I must admit I did focus on iPhone more than iPad (Apple requires it work on both), but I like your idea of having it "stick" to your chosen side, especially on iPad. Makes sense - thanks!

Awesome!

I use dvorak on my computer and have been looking for something like this for years. Its really responsive and easy to pick up. Worth the three bucks.

Hero Keyboard

Absolutely wonderful. I love, I can't fault it, AND the customer service is truly srcond to none. Well done Corey. Great app! ❤️

Hopeful

This app was more promising in the beginning. It now has many glitches and it's appearance had become pretty pixelated. The keyboard rarely even pops up as my Primary keyboard. Hopefully there is an update soon to fix these issues.

Radical and great

Update - still waiting for swipe. Have to move on until that is available.

Works very well and the update fixes a lot of issues. Swipe is needed. But overall, good job.

Confused but also like it

Im confused about letter placement. There is no intuitive order to the placement of the lesser used letters that I can see. The center keys are AWEOME BUT LOOKING for other keys slowed me WAY down and defeats the purpose. Plus I had tons of typos. Am I missing something?

One other thing that bugs me is that the letters in the center are designed to also spell the app name and having a pre-existing word there every time you try to use it actually throws off words you're trying to create via the letters.

I want to like this but...

Hi balanced movie critic. It does take several days to get used to HERO. Regarding letter arrangement, it's based on letter usage frequency (using English frequency tables), with common letter pairs placed next to each other as much as possible to further reduce finger travel (and it'll really help when I get swipe typing added). I had some wiggle room with the placement of rarely used letters like Z and X, so I put those near to their QWERTY location when possible to help people find them. Nevertheless, thanks for trying HERO! Later, Corey

This is it!

I am the creator of Modality Keyboard, and I couldn't possibly be more excited about what this group has accomplished with Hero. Concentric circles with your primary letters large and centered, outliers way outside, punctuation right on screen, and of course space bar right in the center... so many well-thought ideas here! If you are going to type letter by letter (Modality works in groups), this is the way to do it, no question.

I have a few small critiques which I won't detail here because I am sure the creators are aware of them, and you will discover them too, but I can tell you unflinchingly that you won't find anything better for this style of typing.

The short story is, get Hero NOW and support these guys in any way you can so that they can keep doing great things that improve the way we interact with our technology. And I'm very serious - get it NOW!

Awesome

This app is great, I totally recommend it! Once you get used to the new control pad you will type so much faster. Get it today

Perfect for the lazy

I enjoy the app layout, very satisfying and interesting to use. It took me a little while to get used to the keyboard layout but when I did, it helped me save time and manage texts much more efficiently!

Good idea

Basically a good idea, but it needs a few refinements. I miss language selection and auto language detection. Also the suggestions can be improved. But overall a very good start.

Innovative

Innovative keyboard. This is very different from what Im familiar with but in a good way. Takes some time to get used to though. Very well designed. For example very easy to reach the most used emojis. Takes advantage of 3d touch very well. Highly recommend to at least try HERO.

Cool!!!

It is very cool and good UI to get used to. I can not use the other keyboard... but the touch is hard. Would not it be nice to have more keyboard skins?

Using the app while typing this

there's a small learn curve and some time to get used to it but once you are familiar with where the letters are, then you can type with ease using one hand. Great app and sliding the keyboard

Epic fail

This keyboard makes no sense. I thought it would be like swipe but it is just a keyboard in a circle with seemingly random placement. I tried to write "this makes no sense" and ended up using both hands.
This reinvents the wheel but makes the wheel a triangle.

Great app

Well done!

Update helped!

Loving this new style of keyboard. Small learning curve but awesome setup, so easy to use.

Great to have when one handed typing or quick message while on the go.
