The keyless keyboard that works

A keyless keyboard?

Yes that may sound strange but MyScript Stylus Beta is just that, a keyboard for android that isn't really a keyboard.

The app replaces your keyboard so that instead of pressing keys to type you can just write what you want to on the phone or tablets screen

How good is it? Good enough that this article was written using one thumb on a galaxy S4 with no problems.

The application is free to use - at least while still in beta stage, and learns as you type, once you get used to it you can write very quickly even with one thumb and it is very intuitive and easy to use.

There are settings for handwriting speed ( Scrolling) and you can type in a large number of languages, making this a useful app for more than just English speakers.

If you want to try it for yourself you can click here to download it from the play store.

A very promising app and one that already performs well enough for every day use, I have to admit that it is currently my "keyboard" of choice and being able to write this article using just one thumb so easily is suprising but impressive for a new beta handwriting application.

If you want to write rather than type, then this could be the app you've been waiting for.
