Well, quite easily because the amount of irritation that this move caused greatly exceeded the benefits of the product. Even if typing on mobile is now somewhat clunkier and more taxing mentally whether using thumb-key or Gboard.
Yeah… It could’ve been one solution because in practice the app was pretty much unmaintained anyway.
Ok, I think this has some way to go still. Compared to MessagEase quite a bit of features are missing (the combine button which gives instant access to a whole lot of special characters, many settings, also do I have to press # to access numbers, etc). That said, I’ll keep this installed and hopefully contribute to its development if I can.
Definitely not a con! Now testing thumb-key and it seems quite promising. Just need to get a Finnish layout (or umlauts) going…
Thanks, but these seem they’re adhering to Gboard experience rather than MessagEase.
Actually I just found out about thumb-key that seems to fit the bill perfectly. In theory at least.
Learn a memory technique. Start with Major system and go on from there. If you keep going, on the next long flight you’ll be happily creating new memory palaces or revisiting the old ones. All in your mind, no electronic devices needed.
They’re not only fun but useful as well.
It has the MessagEase layout supported as well.
