MessagEase Keyboard vs Where

MessagEase is an alternative, non-QWERTY keyboard for your iPhone and iPad. Created based on years of scientific research in user interface, MessagEase is designed and optimized for use on a touchscreen device. MessagEase is a patented, innovative design different from the antiquated QWERTY keyboard. If you believe that every keyboard must be QWERTY-like, then MessagEase is not what you are looking for. But if you are open to new ideas and up for experiencing a completely new way of writing you will be pleasantly surprised at how well, how precisely, and how fast you can enter text with MessagEase. Our current champion’s speed is 87 WPM— that's 87 Words Per Minute! Most people don't type nearly that fast with ten fingers! MessagEase essentially has 9 large keys with an optimized letter assignment to maximize your speed, increase your accuracy, and ease your writing. Since MessagEase is very different, you must spend a few minutes to get used to it. We have included several learning games to help you learn the new, innovative pattern of MessagEase—and you’ll save hours by texting and writing faster. With MessagEase you enter letters and characters with either a tap, or a drag (slide): taps for the most common characters and directional drag for the rest. Please watch the video, or see the section Essential MessagEase, to learn more. MessagEase's design is based on sound user-interface principles such as the Fitts' Law; it uses letter frequency and di-gram data to optimally place the characters on a keyboard with fewer, larger keys. That’s why the letter positions are non-QWERTY!

Where is a realtime location sharing app designed for privacy. Unlike other location apps, Where uses end-to-end encryption (E2EE) to ensure that only you and your friends can see where you are. Most location apps send your GPS coordinates directly to a central server. This means the company running the app knows exactly where you are, where you’ve been, and who you’re with. Where is different. * Direct Sharing: You add friends by scanning a QR code or sharing a private link. This establishes a “handshake” directly between your devices. * Encryption First: Before your location ever leaves your phone, it is scrambled into a mathematical code that only your friend’s phone can unscramble. * The “Blind” Server: Our server acts like a digital post office that can’t read the mail. It sees that someone sent a package to someone else, but it doesn’t know who they are or what’s inside. * No Identity Required: There are no accounts, no email addresses, and no phone numbers. Your “identity” is just a random key stored on your device. Where uses a double ratchet inspired by the Signal Protocol to ensure forward secrecy, and header encryption to mask your social relationships (whom you share with) from the server or anyone snooping on your traffic.
