Minuum Keyboard Beta for smartphones and etc -

The Minuum Keyboard Project | By Whirlscape


Looks pretty cool.
I hope there is a swype feature as I prefer swype now.
This is definitely a keyboard of the future.

yeah, saw this a while back. I'm waiting for a beta to be released so I can try it.

I would say it's good because all the letters are on one line - so you get to see a lot more of the screen. right now, it's annoying to have the keyboard take up half the screen...

It's not as useful as it sounds. You only have 1 row of keys so you're going to depend on autocomplete a lot. As well when you're typing things that are not in the dictionary it's gonna be a pain.

I am currently in the beta and as stupid as it looks it is very, very functional. A few slight typing adjustments and this thing is eerily accurate. Beta is only in English atm.

Awesome great to hear.
I had no doubt that this would be functional. It's pretty much T9. I signed up for the beta, but haven't heard anything yet. How long did it take to get the beta?
Btw, is there a Swype feature?

I got the beta by backing them on Indiegogo. A service like Kickstarter. If anyone is interested I can find the APK on my phone and you guys can have a gander.

Also, there is no "swype" like feature. The project is still considered early beta.
