## What is ZenNotes Slim?

Refining the QWERTY keyboard for one-handed use, ZenNotes is a text editor designed for writing that allows you to type in comfort for a long time while you relax or hold your iPad. You may find the ZenNotes keypad more compact than the QWERTY keyboard.

The ZenNotes keypad, also known as the TREWQ (pronounced "true-q") keypad, collapses the three rows of the QWERTY keyboard into six rows so that you can touch type using one hand. The key corresponding to the same finger on the other hand is located directly above, taking advantage of your existing touch typing muscle memory.

In addition to the features available in ZenNotes Slim, the paid version of ZenNotes:

- Supports background music
- Allows you to manage, e-mail and print files from your iPad
- Enables sharing and backing up of your documents using iTunes
