FlickKey , a bank note direct app for the iPhone , has the world ’s minuscule practical keyboard on the iPhone . The keyboard is no bigger than an column inch in either direction and predictably , completely nutty to typecast on .
The way the keyboard works is that there ’s 9 varsity letter on each miniskirt - tile and tap or pilfer the tile in a certain direction gives you a unlike letter . For example , a up swipe on the unexpended roofing tile bestow W , an upward aslant right swipe brings S and a simple tap on that same roofing tile creates E. It makes some horse sense but I ’m disconcert at the layout of the letters — I’m indisputable I apply the letter ‘S ’ much more than ‘ yttrium ’ but it ’s the same motion on a dissimilar tile . I consider it could be more efficiently laid out .
The bigger hope for the app is more to show that a keyboard modest than your pinky finger is possible . And granted this keyboard would make type on a wristwatch - eccentric gadget potential ( hello iPod nano ! ) but keep this aside from my iPhone . Try out the appto see how it works .
