i liked thumb key a lot and switched to flickboard so that i could type one- and two-handed with the same keyboard for each thumb. you can even choose the thumb-key layout, and give it a custom background
Interesting. But from reading the description I don't see any advantages over Thumb Key because the latter also has two-handed layouts that can be seen in screenshots of Flickerboard. What do you find better in Flickerbourd that in Thumb Key?
The two-handed typing you're referring to, that's 2x thumb layouts right? Not QWERTY.
correct, 2x thumb layouts!
Got it. Makes sense. I've used Thumb Key with 2x thumb layout so I got a bit confused. Tried flickboard, seems nice, very similar to TK indeed.
