User reviews

Good.. needs a couple features.

I love the size of the keyboard however after using this app there are a couple things that I think would make this a complete solution to a nonverbal person. Such as a return key that would complete the phrase or sentence and read it out loud. As it stands right now if you type more keys then the screen will allow it just slides the text to the left where you cannot access it.
