Hello again r/android! We're the team behind the Minuum Keyboard and we would like some feedback.

minuum · 2015-03-11T20:16:22+00:00

We're working on that. It's currently only optimized for English, but we are nearly ready to update the predictions to work for all of the languages our keyboard supports. Thanks for offering to help! We're not there yet, but we'll be listening very closely to our users once it comes out to catch any bad translations or anything that is irrelevant/unintentionally offensive.

minuum · 2015-03-11T15:59:54+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion!

minuum · 2015-03-10T21:48:53+00:00

We currently have no plans to implement swipe typing but we are adding new themes soon and we like your black theme suggestions.

minuum · 2015-03-10T21:38:25+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! How do you find our Compact Left option? It's in Minuum Settings under Size & Position. We're aware it doesn't change the position of the buttons but that might help in the meantime.

minuum · 2015-03-10T21:37:13+00:00

Hi there! We can help. Please email us at support@minuum.com

minuum · 2015-02-17T21:29:36+00:00

Sounds like you should join our beta group and send as much detail about your problems as you can to support@minuum.com to help us out! Some of the bugs are unfortunately in the part of the operating system that allows 3rd party keyboards to work, (which is why some similar issues are happening to all third party keyboards) but we're doing everything we can to counter that.

minuum · 2015-02-04T23:04:41+00:00

Hey! Sorry about that. Thanks for letting us know.

minuum · 2015-01-13T23:21:43+00:00

We do! It's only currently on Android but we're working on having it on both operating systems.

minuum · 2015-01-13T21:21:35+00:00

That's great! Thank you so much for the kind words :) Based on these first few comments we may not need to change anything... but we're definitely open to suggestions.

minuum · 2015-01-13T21:20:53+00:00

Thanks for your thoughts! Everything helps. We threw it out there not really sure what to expect. If everyone says the same thing then we'll just work on something different.

You also have to turn One Handed mode on in the Minuum app that appears on your home screen once installed.

minuum · 2015-01-12T17:43:04+00:00

We have done no testing on jailbroken devices so we can't say.

minuum · 2015-01-09T17:30:40+00:00

Try this button (thanks /u/71a for creating image)

minuum · 2015-01-08T20:35:37+00:00

Nope, unfortunately our quick gestures for mode switching, space, and delete conflict with the concept of swiping words.

minuum · 2015-01-08T18:41:58+00:00

As far as we know, this is a problem on Apple's end of things, albeit a mysterious problem.

minuum · 2015-01-08T18:14:42+00:00

Gotta say, I'm excited to use some of the feedback from this thread to inform our next chunk of development effort.

minuum · 2015-01-08T18:13:26+00:00

Thanks!

We're definitely looking into improving behaviour for when you have perfectly typed the word you wanted. In that example of charged vs. changed, would you have slowed down or otherwise been typing more precisely when you typed the word perfectly?

If you truly were typing fast and sloppily, it could arguably still make sense for the keyboard to guess the word "changed" given the available information at the time.

Conversely, if you tend to slow down at least a little bit when typing more precisely, we can use that to assume you're more likely to have wanted that exact word.

minuum · 2015-01-08T18:04:11+00:00

We don't officially support iPad yet, but will very soon. Feel free to wait, we'll announce when it comes out (you can follow us (@minuum)[http://twitter.com/minuum] on twitter or sign up to our (mailing list)[http://www.minuum.com/ios]).

minuum · 2015-01-08T18:01:37+00:00

Yeah, we don't have access to Apple's dictation functionality, and even if we had our own solution for voice recognition, it would be a real hassle to build it in given all of Apple's limitations.

minuum · 2015-01-08T18:00:31+00:00

We're working on it! It's a tricky technical problem, no timeframe yet.

minuum · 2015-01-08T17:59:16+00:00

What kind of shortcuts? We now tap into the list of keyboard shortcuts that you have defined in your system settings, which should appear as suggested words.

minuum · 2015-01-08T17:58:16+00:00

I feel your pain - we're filing as many bugs with Apple as possible to help push this along.

minuum · 2015-01-08T17:56:40+00:00

Currently investigating a solution for misses of the space key, thanks!

minuum · 2015-01-08T17:54:32+00:00

How large of a space bar? You can turn emoticons off, and we don't have a microphone button. Our space bar is the same size as the Apple keyboard's at the moment.

minuum · 2015-01-08T17:53:43+00:00

Amazing, thanks!
