There are 2 iffs I have with it, 1. it's really easy to press the wrong key and 2. it doesn't just change your keyboard you have to go to a seperate app, type your message, and select who you want to send the message to. Overall if you want a keyboard instead of writing its gray and works well. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. About pressing wrong key, we'll consider how to improve it. :) ### 3/5 — Tastiera *2023-05-28* Solo per messaggi **Developer response:** I'm sorry for your disappointment. This app is for Messages app as mentioned in the app description and screenshots. Because watchOS does not allow an external keyboard. ### 3/5 — Help me *2023-05-17* Listen, it seems promising but I don't know how to set it up. The app does not include that information. Could someone reply back and help? Thanks! 😁❤️ **Developer response:** Hello, RebeccaLinsey. Could you send an email to support@bitsbaker.com ? ### 4/5 — good *2023-02-24* it’s really good but sometimes it’s hard to tap the right key and you should add something to copy what you typed **Developer response:** Thank you for your review! When you feel hard to tap the correct key, please try this method. Just hold down any key with your finger, move your finger, and when you reach the correct key to type, release your finger. Only the key where the finger is released is actually input. If this doesn't work for you, please let us know at support@bitsbaker.com. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Annoying *2026-02-16* It's annoying because I can't do anything without paying. **Developer response:** We sincerely apologize that the app feels restrictive. Basic features are free in this app. Only some advanced features require payment. Please contact us at https://support.bitsbaker.com/watchtype if you have more questions. ### 1/5 — Lie! *2025-03-18* You have to pay in order to use the app… then the app doesn’t work **Developer response:** Basic features are free, and paid version is only for advanced features. If the app isn't functioning as expected, please reach out to us at support@bitsbaker.com. We would like to assist you further and resolve any issues you are experiencing. Thank you for your understanding. ### 1/5 — It doesn’t work *2024-02-05* It doesn’t work **Developer response:** Could you send an email to support@bitsbaker.com about the problem that you've experienced? ### 1/5 — No fonts *2024-01-13* The only thing that you can do for free is type on the keyboard. I got this as a fonts app but you have to pay for all the fonts. If I could rate this app 0 stars, I would **Developer response:** Using the qwerty keyboard itself is free. However, using fonts in the Apple Watch needs the Pro version, as you've said. I'm sorry to disappoint you. ### 1/5 — Hola *2023-08-29* No entiendo porque cobran tan caro **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. The basic features are free. The price for Pro features is for further developments. ### 1/5 — Have to pay *2023-07-10* Junk **Developer response:** You've misunderstood. Except some Pro features, the general text messaging itself is available for free. ### 2/5 — 1st Review — and many more to come! *2022-12-27* I’m not going to be like a scammer or say anything false. This is a 100% honest and authentic review. I love this app!! I’ve tried 4 different watch keyboard apps, and all of them work for like 2 seconds and then out of no where they’d say something like “Pay To Unlock Full Keyboard” Then i’d delete the app, because i just want a keyboard app that works without having to pay. Then i downloaded this app, not expecting too much, and this one was so easy to use! No pay, No glitch, No ads, just a watch keyboard. This is an amazing app. For anyone that doesn’t want to read the thing above, here’s a brief summary: I’ve tried many different apps like this, and all of them made me pay, but not this one. This one was good and easy to use. Amazing app!!! I’d give in 10 stars if I could!! **Developer response:** aubreygirl321, Thank you for your review and great praise. However, your rating was 2 stars, unlike your sentences. Was it a mistaken tap? ### 3/5 — It’s a good thought *2026-05-19* I wish I chould use keyboard within iMessage but, you have to open the app. Then type what your want and then add the contact/s you want to text. I personally think this is a hassle. just to be able to use a keyboard on my watch. While this app has goo features for example changing the color and font(etc), but these changes require a fee to be able to use. So this app is a good choice if you want to use app that requires you to the text within the app. So I’m gonna give it 3 ⭐️⭐️⭐️’s. ### 3/5 — It’s ok *2025-01-21* Overall I think the app is pretty good but I think some themes and fonts should be free because those are some of the main reasons I got the app but then it turns out that I basically have to by them.So I have mixed feelings about the app **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you think the app is pretty good. We understand your concerns regarding the pricing of some themes and fonts. Our intention is to provide a variety of options, but we appreciate your thoughts on making more free choices available.

Actually, most features are free forever. You can tap close button on Pro upgrade view and use it continuously if you don't need Pro features. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — BEST KEYBOARD EVER *2026-07-15* I find myself using this every day! 5 STARS ### 5/5 — Ate a whole *2026-02-02* Right now I’m not Going **Developer response:** We noticed your review was cut off and wanted to make sure you're happy with WatchType. Have a good day! ### 5/5 — Good *2024-12-29* Good app but only the normal keyboard is free **Developer response:** Thank you for your positive review! We're glad to hear you find the app good. We do offer a free version with the standard keyboard, and we provide fonts and other advanced features as paid for better maintenance.

We appreciate your support! ### 5/5 — A great accessible keyboard! *2024-07-02* The keyboard is free and works with voiceover on my iphone when most of the others don’t. Considering buying the pro version but I might wait til ios 18 comes out in case the new software breaks the apps accessibility. **Developer response:** Thank you for your positive feedback! When you have any questions or troubles, please feel free to reach out to us at support@bitsbaker.com. Happy typing! ### 5/5 — good keyboard app for watch   ‍​ *2023-06-09* I tried several times to send a message in Apple Watch 6 and gave up, but the keyboard app saved me. You can't send a reply right away, you have to go to the Watch screen and run it on Complications, but you can still send it quickly without finding the app. One thing that is unfortunate is that it is a pity that only iMessages support. Please let me know if you support other apps!‍  ‌ ### 5/5 — So impressed watch keyboard *2023-02-06, version 1.3* This is quite a good keyboard for Messages on my Apple Watch! Because my Apple Watch SE 2 does not have the QWERTY keyboard, unlike Apple Watch Series 8, I regretted choosing Apple Watch SE2. However, I found this app, and it resolved my problem! It enables me to text friends from my Apple Watch! One disadvantage is that I can't reply in Messages in Watch, but this looks the same with any other Watch Keyboard app. Except for this, I like this so much! When I send a message with the selected font, my friend who receives the text can see the font even though she doesn't have this app! **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review! It's difficult to reply directly from Messages like your reply, but we'll let you know if this part improves. ### 4/5 — Be honest about this *2025-12-22* I’ve recently downloaded this app to use for texting on my watch it is very useful, but my first impressions on this app is that the keyboard is very hard to to type with because it can easily type the wrong letter. I also thing there should be more free fonts and themes to choose for a free experience, but overall the app is good and helpful when texting on the watch. 😊 ### 4/5 — Good *2024-12-15* It would be nice to have a few options with the free font. You only receive just the one but that’s better than none. Because all others you have to pay for them all. So we will see if this works! **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate your suggestions regarding more options for the free font. We are always looking to improve the user experience, and your input is valuable to us. If you have any more suggestions or questions, please feel free to reach out to us directly at support@bitsbaker.com. We hope you enjoy using WatchType! ### 4/5 — It’s a ok app *2024-10-13* Ok so it’s a good app and you don’t have to pay for it unless you want to have a different font or something like that. The only bad thing is you have to type out the message then go find the contact. Other than that it’s great! **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you find the app good and appreciate the free features. We understand that having to type out the message before finding the contact can be inconvenient. Your input is valuable, and we're always looking to improve user experience. If you have more suggestions or need assistance, please reach out to us at support@bitsbaker.com. ### 4/5 — The keyboard is actually free *2024-05-16* I like the keyboard, I’ve used it for a short time since I’ve downloaded it and it’s good but could use improvements. Just like the previous review said, it’s easy to make mistakes while using the keyboard. Also it would be great if I could change the size of the keyboard but overall it’s good. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you like the keyboard and appreciate your suggestions for improvements, especially regarding size adjustment and error ease. We're always looking to enhance user experience.
