CUSTOMIZED KEYBOARD FOR 10-FINGER TYPING TypeWay supports touch typing with automatic adaptation of the key configuration. It adapts to individual hands and typing habits (only on iPad, in landscape mode). You can “Save” and “Restore” a configuration as a favorite. “Freeze” fixes the actual configuration. “Save” / “Restore” and “Freeze” your personalized keyboard. For beginners, we recommend a fixed configuration (“Freeze”) and the slow adaptation in TypeWay’s “Settings”. The keyboard layout offers British English, US English, and German with several international accents. iOS features are integrated, like cut, copy & paste, etc. TypeWay provides fast typing, e.g., for protocols, lesson scripts, interviews, emails, and basic text editing.
