💡 Did you know?

Typewise introduces a new font app designed specifically for smartphones, departing from the traditional typewriter layout. It is user-friendly and revolutionary, providing a unique typing experience after just a few uses.

Typewise offers various keyboard backgrounds, emojis, text fonts, as well as features like auto-paste keyboard and emoji keyboard for an enjoyable and easy experience. Users can switch fonts to maximize their keyboard experience.

Our patented honeycomb layout, unlike the QWERTY layout of most keyboards, ensures simplicity and a wide range of font options for a superior typing experience.

🤩 4X fewer typos

Studies conducted with 37,000 participants revealed that one out of five words typed on conventional keyboards contain typos. Typewise reduces these errors thanks to its hexagon layout, with keys being 70% larger and easier to hit, resulting in 4 times fewer typos. Ideal for users seeking a keyboard with large keys.

👋 Intuitive gestures

Simply swipe up to capitalize a letter, swipe left to delete, or swipe right to restore, making typing effortless.

✨ Smart autocorrect

Typewise's intelligent autocorrect feature learns your typing patterns to provide accurate suggestions, preventing annoying autocorrections or inaccuracies.

🔒 100% privacy

Typewise operates locally on your device to ensure privacy. None of your typing data is sent to the cloud, unlike other keyboards that require multiple permissions to access personal information.

🗣️ Speaks your languages

Typewise supports writing in multiple languages simultaneously, with fonts switching automatically. Supported languages include English, Afrikaans, Albanian, Basque, Breton, Catalan, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Filipino, Finnish, French, and more.

Explore additional features with Typewise PRO for enhanced typing capabilities and customization options. Compatible with Android smartphones version 6+ and iPhones.

How does Typewise prioritize which new features to add to the keyboard?

As we know from the Typewise feature suggestion area, there are a lot of things users would like to see. Some people complain that their suggestion has been there for a whole two years and yet has “still not been implemented!”. What may not be appreciated by some users is that adding a new feature can be a huge task – taking many weeks or even months of our development resource to build. What appears to be a simple task from the outside can be a very complex task in reality.  

We currently use the Weighted Shortest Job First approach to prioritize what features we should work on first. This framework allows us to evaluate a new piece of work and where it should sit on our roadmap, based on the value of the feature and the amount of work it is to complete.

Some features that people suggest will never be released; we can’t and indeed don’t want to execute every single request we get. We have to balance user demand, against the impact of the feature, and many other things, for example: the happyness of our current users, growth of new users, our conversion rates etc. There are many factors to consider.  

What new features can we expect to see in Q2 this year?

We’re still working on finishing the ‘rendering logic’ but everything is on track for it to be completed at the start of Q2. And with that, we’re finally able to release quite a few new features that our users have been requesting for some time.  

For example, adding a shift key (which allows CAPS LOCK), a delete key (in addition to the delete swipe functionality), a new emoji view and a new special characters layer to make them easier to find.

What about new users – anything for them?

Yes. One of the challenges we know new users face is adapting to our honeycomb keyboard layout and our new gestures. Thousands of people download our keyboard each week, but many of them find the learning curve too much and give up.  

We know from current users that once you adapt to Typewise, you never want to go back to the legacy QWERTY keyboards, but we need to help new users get value more quickly.

So we’ll also be releasing a better onboarding process, a new ‘fast-learn’ layout, and improved tutorial methods. We want more people to benefit from Typewise, faster.  

Note to current users: the current hexagonal layout will not be going away and all new features will be released to all layouts we offer.
