About Typewriter Keyboard

This app is a fun variation of the normal keyboard, changing it into a classic-look typewriter. Enjoy the vintage typewriter sounds when writing emails and text-messages.

* How to use it

Start (for instance) the sms app.
When the regular keyboard appears, long-press on the textfield.
Select 'Inputmethods'.
Select the keyboard of your choice.
It this app doesn't appear in the list, see below - 'How to install'.

To switch off the sound hit the mute-button on the keyboard.
To change the volume go to Settings/Language & Keyboard.

This app is a keyboard replacement and not a standalone app.
Like every custom keyboard it has to be activated (first time only)

* How to install

Go to Settings/Language&Keyboard
Check the box for Typewriter Keyboard.
Use the back-button to go back to the homescreen

Waste of money

I followed Instructions for the install of the app and did EXACTLY as the developer states on the google play site, APP does NOT work PERIOD. I went to settings and "Language and Key Board" on Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4 selected Typwriter Keyboard, and kept tapping the "Back" button screen by screen until I returned to Home screen, went into Text "Messages" and NO Keyboard. REMEDIAL ACTION the process was re-done over and over and NO Typewriter Keyboard. I think either ist NOT compatible with Android Operating System 4.0.4 ICS OR a outdated app Its ONLY 99 cents so its NOT a big loss for me though essentially it was wasted money for me.

Had to uninstal straight away, wouldnt correctly orientate on my phone, shame cos it looks fun...

It looks rubbish and the sounds are awful. I can't even get a refund.

X70%
by X####:

It keep overwriting my sound setting and cap lock is on after the first letter please fix it

X70%
by X####:

Its a reasonable app but the sounds are a bit too long to simulate actual typing, no special characters is a real thumbs down, the caps gets quite annoying, no auto correct option which is fine for me but others might find this a minus. I must admit though im considering keeping it for the look alone. If this was made into a skin for gokeyboard or something along the lines i would definately pay just for that

I miss typewriters. With that bar you slide to the left. There is something Hunter S. Thompson had said about having re-written Hemingway. Just to feel how it must to write like that. So he did. Verbatim.

X70%
by X####:

Just doesnt work that well . Need to enable auto full stop when double tapping spacebar and auto change between caps at start of sentence. Another issue is accuracy it needs a calibration option. Fix these problems and its a five star app. AND THOSE TOO STUPID TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO CHANGE KEYBOARD TO THIS DO NOT RATE ONE STAR ITS THE APP YOUR MEANT TO BE RATING NOT YOUR INTELLIGENCE

LOVE this keyboard, fix the first word all cap issue and add adjustment for the amount of vibration and its a winner.
