### 1/5 — Don't bother downloading 💩

*2016-02-13*

This app doesn't work so don't bother downloading. The app downloads, opens and lights up when you touch it but no letter recognition...swiped or typed 😒

### 1/5 — Miss

*2016-01-11, version 1.0*

Doesn't work and apple is stupid.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2016-01-05*

The app doesn't work correctly - it doesn't have the option to allow full access to iPhone, so swipe and autocorrect don't work at all.

### 1/5 — Would upload an ad then crash

*2020-06-28*

As soon as I opened it, an ad would play then it would crash and close.... 4 times... Deleted it immediately!

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2020-06-21, version 2.1*

This is really useless on a large iPhone and with the latest iOS (13.5) it simply doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — where the swipe option

*2020-04-26*

interesting concept too bad no real swipe accessibility

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Swipe

*2019-07-16*

I still have to press each letter individually; cannot just swipe the keyboard for words to be created.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2019-04-19, version 2.1*

Doesn’t work. Rubbish app.

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2019-04-02*

Pointless

### 1/5 — Loathe Developers Who Fail to Mention Ads

*2019-03-26, version 2.1*

Ya ... I didn’t even get a chance to activate the keyboard and the pop up ads began. That’s the end of your reputation bud!!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-03-22*

Waste of time, the swipe feature does NOT work which is the primary reason I wanted it.

### 1/5 — Why...

*2018-03-17*

Why put a space bar, but to ad a space you have to slide across the bar. That's the stupidest idea that I've ever seen. 
Don't waste your time with this junk...

### 1/5 — No bueno

*2017-06-04*

It doesn't work at all

### 2/5 — One extra star for how simple it looks

*2019-03-24*

I have to agree with the other review though, what is the point of having a space button if the function only activates when you swipe across it? Fleksy already does this feature and then some with an excellent algorithm. Figure out what is wanted with the keyboard and then try and implement. The idea of a gesture based keyboard itself isn't bad but it has to be functional and make sense.

### 2/5 — Idea good - 2 things need sorting before it works

*2019-02-20, version 2.1*

When you tap space, nothing happens, you have to swipe to insert a space. I type on an iphone SE about 300 words every 20 minutes, but since IOS11 the standard keyboard has changed behaviour and I can no longer type as fast with accuracy, so I was looking for something simplified with a larger space bar - not having a single tap
space bar makes this keyboard useless. The other thing is the letters are not the same size and are difficult to read. It is also slow to respond to taps. I would say “sluggish.”
