(Update: Developer shows sincerity in updating Nintype to be the best typing experience possible on a keyboard)
Note: Using iPhone 6+ with keyboard
After using Swiftkey, Swype, and the iPhone 6+ stock keyboard, I find Nintype to be the better keyboard.
Swype is a great keyboard for those that like swiping to type, but you can only use one finger or thumb to swipe the words out. The tap typing experience with Swype leaves more to be desired.
Swiftkey has swiping to type capabilities as well, not as refined as Swype, but it’s still a pleasant experience. Swiftkey also has good tap typing which enables the user to have a balanced experience using taps and a swiping gestures. Like Swype though, Swiftkey only allows you to use one finger or thumb to type out words when using swiping gestures.
The iPhone stock keyboard has the best tap typing experience, but if you like using swiping gestures to type, you’re out of luck, it doesn’t offer swiping gesture typing.
Enter Nintype, a keyboard that fuses swiping and tap typing together in a intuitive way. Unlike Swiftkey and Swype, you can use two thumbs to swipe out a word. Nintype allows you to mix swiping and tap typing in a fluid way that is great and fun.
If you can pat your head and rub your belly at the same time, you’ll be able to use Nintype with no problems. Be patient with learning the nuances of Nintype and you’ll be rewarded with the best typing experience that no other keyboard can offer.
