### 3/5 — this would be amazing if not for one thing!

*2022-04-16*

The keyboard is extremely buggy. Super slow when typing … in fact I started on this Twi keyboard but had to switch it up due to how buggy it was being. I love the autocomplete, as a new Twi learner it really helps honest. 
If you could just fix the bugs so it runs smoothly, this would, in my opinion, probably be the best designed Twi Keyboard on the market. 

But the freezes make this unstable and unfortunately, unusable for long periods of use.

Please fix the bugs.
