Text Faster's home page

Description:

TextFaster is a software and hardware product which enables touch typing on the iPhone. The hardware is a plastic sheet with Braille dots on it, so that you can feel where the buttons are. The software is an innovative gesture keyboard. To type an 'a', you swipe the 'abc' key to the left. To type a 'c', you wipe the 'abc' key to the right. To type a 'b', you just tap the 'abc' key. To hit the 's' on the 'pqrs' key, you swipe down, or swipe up to hit the numbers. There is also a qwerty version of the keyboard. The 'q', 'w', and 'e' keys are merged into a 'qwe' key.


The text which you type can be sent as an email, a SMS message, used to look up a url in a WEB browser, drive a Google search, or can be dialed on the phone.

Tester incentive:

other (more info)

Well you do get a great free app. But also I give out Good Ratings. I only get 100 beta testers with the Apple Developer License. So it is just not fair for you to sign up to be a Beta tester, but not give me any feedback. But if you give me one original comment per software release, that gives me 50 comments from 50 testers, I am a happy man and you get a 4 star rating. Do better you get a 5 star rating. No comments in a week from a software release, you get a zero rating.

Supported devices:

iPad, iPhone (1.0), iPhone (3G), iPhone (3GS), iPod Touch (1st gen), iPod Touch (2nd gen), iPod Touch (3rd gen)

Here's what needs to be tested:

Everything I wanted to test, I already tested. What I would like you to do is to stress test the app. Use it in ways I never imagined, and tell me what you think. What does it take for you to want to use the app all day long for all your iphone typing needs?

I just ask you to make one report back per major release cycle. If 50 people each give me one report, then I am a very happy man. And you get a 4 or 5 star rating.
