Qwerty6 Keyboard (Q6KB) is the familiar qwerty keyboard with a twist. It puts all the letters in the familiar qwerty order, but it has just 17 big letter keys. Each key tells you how to type its letters:
.
> To type the large letter, touch the key.
> To type the upper character, swipe up-left.
> To type the lower character, swipe down-right.
.
It's a little easier to touch than to swipe, so the designer took the letter frequency of the English alphabet into account when deciding which letters you type by touching & which you swipe. With the help of 10 digits & a few punctuation marks to stretch things out, 14 of the 17 most-used letters became touch letters. So you touch 91% of the time & swipe only 9%.
.
SAFETY
There is no safer app than Q6KB. The warning you'll see when activating Q6KB is the same for all keyboard apps. Only autocomplete keyboards collect your personal information.

HOW TO SWIPE
Put your finger on the middle of the key & immediately move it past the letter you want. You have a wide 180-degree arc for swiping. A short, quick swipe is best. Swipe diagonally. You can adjust the minimum swipe length in the Settings. Shorten it if a swipe registers as a touch. Lengthen if a touch registers as a swipe. Use the shortest lengths for the smallest screens.
.
NARROW KEYS
The SHIFT & DELETE keys are very narrow & are meant to be touched in a different way. Don't aim for the center of the key. Aim for the outside edge & touch the rim of the device. These narrow "rim keys" are an experimental feature. Please email us about how they work on your device. (Mention your screen size.)

POP-UP CHARACTERS
