It looks neat but what an absolutely stupid take from a keyboard author

Because it trusts you to write what you meant to write.

Butch if I didn't let it correct me I'd have to actually mook st the keyboard and who the fuck wants to do thatm.

Phones are tiny and humans are clumsy. I absolutely never mean what I type, as you can see above.

Well, ThumbKey adapts to the limitations of a phone screen, that's why it's unique. So, once you are familiar with it, you're less likely to fumble the wrong key. It takes quite some time though, at least it did for me.

I understand what they were trying to go for, but they failed..not least because they explain that below the fold.

Failed for thee perhaps, but mein hands are smol, vocab's colloquial, n' passwords often complex.. Autocorrect is the first feature that must die when I adopt devices.
