Re: Keyboard Changes
I wish the keyboard on UT could be more predictive. If I type a word with a mistake (the letter next to it) such as lpve instead of love, it won't see the connection between the two. I keep making mistakes because of my bit fingers on such a small screen and it is sooo frustrating having to erase a whole word because the prediction is wrong... Or when I type the beginning of a word such as : "ordi", it will write "ordinaire" instead of "ordinateur"... And the more I teach the keyboard, the less it remembers what I teach. so annoying! I hate tactile screens so much, such a waste of time!...
And glide typing would be SOOOOO welcome!

I'm not into swiping but can imagine people wanting that too

It's not auto-correction we're looking for here, just a better prediction of the word that's about to being entered. Tbh, at least in my language it fails to do that. As a consequence I find myself rewriting correcting many times, time I'd rather spend elsewhere

- You can scale the whole UI with UT Tweak Tools. So the OSK will be bigger
- but it sounds you could enjoy attach a keyboard. You can do that via micro usb (with an adapter) or bluetooth

I subscribe to every post where a see a glide / swipe type of keyboard mentioned
-
I find it helps to have the phone in landscape orientation when typing as it makes the keys larger and hence less prone to mistyping.
I do wish there were left and right cursor movement keys when correcting errors. I find it difficult to place the cursor precisely with the existing editing mode.

I sometimes use an external keyboard... but not always. I wish I could glide or dictate.

Not much work in the "smart" parts of the keyboard so help would be greatly appreciated
