Touchscreen Typing Gets a Makeover with 8pen
If you are one of the millions of smartphone users typing on a tiny, frustrating touchscreen keyboard, the 8pen app might is something you might want to try out. It’s free.
8pen’s creators, as explained in the video below, wondered what would happen if the keyboard was invented today for the purpose of use on a touchscreen smartphone. Because keyboards were designed to fit the size of human hands, the same key layout on a small phone just doesn’t work as well.
8pen is a brand new design of the keyboard with a completely different functionality than any keyboard you have seen. If you can get used to it, the 8pen has a lot of potential to be much easier and much more intuitive than a standard keyboard layout.
We can try to explain how it works, and how it makes typing feel much closer to writing with a pen, but it will makes more sense for you to watch this video and check it out yourself. Download the app for free in the Android market, enjoy it, and let us know what you think.
