Played with it a lot last night and this morning. Could not for the life of me understand why had to try so hard to learn a new keyboard pattern. Muscle memory based on years of the same keyboard layout on almost all smart devices, even going back to Palm, had me taking 20x as long to compose a sentence.
Not entirely sure if I can keep going with this, I would genuinely fall behind on everything.
The $2.99 price tag is very off-putting especially when you don't know if the keyboard will actually improve your typing. Definitely need a trial run or a revenue source via micro purchases instead.
It's cool to see sooner innovative design in this area but I won't know how it works until they drop that up front pricing. I'd gladly pay $.99 a month for it if it were good.
This front up payment model for Keyboards, doesnt work anymore. Most companies moved to in app purchases. Which is perfect, since people need to try and use a keyboard for a while until they stick. Paying later for Extras seems legit to support the makers.
How does this work one-thumbed? I use an "alternate" keyboard now -- MessageEase -- and I've grown used to using one thumb. Also, you might get more takers if you offered a free trial period, or sample version.
