Thumbly Keyboard app for iPhone and iPad
#Featured in Macworld and the Washington Post!
Thumbly is an iPhone keyboard designed to be used with one hand. Standard mobile keyboards are awkward to use, requiring two thumbs to reach all the keys and involve uncomfortable thumb gymnastics. Thumblys keys are ergonomically arranged and are easily reached with one thumb using a comfortable side-to-side motion.
Note: Currently only supports the ENGLISH language.
Additional features:
- Swipe to delete, return, shift and capslock.
- Suggests the next word you will type based on what you have already typed.
- Allows you to select between left handed and right handed versions of the keyboard via a button "toggle" press.
- Misspelled words are automatically corrected.
- Unknown words appear in quotes as a suggestion. Selecting this suggestion causes the word to be recorded for the future use of the spell checker.
- Easily accessible list of curated emoji.
- Disable autocorrect at will.
Pros and cons of Thumbly Keyboard app for iPhone and iPad
Thumbly Keyboard app good for
Works great on my iPhone 6. Needs 5-10 minutes to gain some speed. Good stuff!
Enjoying your keyboard. I especially like the swipe back to delete and the return swipe. I would love to see force touch integration but that may be hard to map.
Some bad moments
Keyboard is smaller than standard iPhone keyboard. Too small for me.
I just purchased this keyboard because it looked exactly like the keyboard I needed for one hand use but unfortunately every time I attempt ANY swipe method whether it be to delete, shift etc.....it crashes back to the stick Apple Keyboard. Great Concept with absolute poor execution as of now. Please Refund as the Keyboard is of absolutely NO USE as it stands. I work too hard for my money to throw it away on a faulty app. Perhaps once fixed I will attempt it again.
They do a better job than Apple at predicting the next word. Great job!
Not good for fat fingers maybe a little more spacing between keys
The app works well at predicting words and the angled layout of the keys is near perfect. A 5-star review would have been given however the keys are a little small for someone with a bigger thumb. It may be more difficult with an iPhone 6 because the screen is smaller. However I will use this app significantly when texting short concise messages. Would love more colors and if the predictive text could be a bolder blue.
This would be a killer app, but the keyboard letters are wayyyyy to small. I have a 6+ and its still tiny. If they enlarged the letters just a bit or had the option to enlarge it would be the perfect app.
