very interesting idea! I'm always irritated how much of my screen the keyboard takes up.

I would certainly download this app :D Even pay for it^^

Kinda weird on my S2 and my Note10.1 when the Keyboard takes 2/3 of my screen when I need the keyboard.

Although I am not sure how this will work on a Phone screen since people are being very used to the Layout on the small ones.

On a tablet on the other hand this will usually be very nice since eventhough I have been using tablets for about 3 years now, I still find it odd to write on the touch keyboard.

Seems like a cool idea but my phone keyboard already has awesome prediction and I don't need to be very accurate. I'd defiantly type faster on QWERTY than this, though on a bigger tablet screen this may be more useful. I'd question the practicality of having such small letters across the bottom of a phone screen, tablet might be alright though.

The idea is that the keyboard doesn't take up as much room on the screen. Did you actually watch the video to see how it works? It's essentially the same as predictive text like on dumbphones. I wouldn't question its accuracy until you actually try it.

Yeah I know I watched it. But having all your letters in a line, I'd take some getting use to. My thumbs naturally sit around the A-L line on a phone keyboard, not near the bottom of the screen. I just seem myself getting the shits with this implementation. I've got no problem with 1/2 a 4.something inch screen being taken up with a keyboard, I'm not writing essays on my phone.

I think it will be very effective once you get used to it, much like any other obscure software.
