Fleksy





Fleksy is a new, revolutionary keyboard, powered by patent pending technology that makes typing on any device fast, accurate and so easy you can type without even looking. The power behind Fleksy is its unique technology based on Geometric Intelligence. Imprecise? Sloppy typing? No problem! Fleksy will know what word you meant to type even if you tap on all the wrong letters. The patent pending technology doesn't just look at the letters you press. It looks at WHERE you tap and analyzes your typing pattern to understand the word you meant to type. Fleksy is the first keyboard app to be shipped on a SmartWatch (Omate), the first on iOS, and the first to work on 3D gesture systems (Leap Motion) and the first app developer to integrate with the Samsung Gear 2. Recently, Fleksy set the world record for fasted typing on a touchscreen keyboard.
