In addition, the app offers two types of keyboard, complete and intuitive, so that users can choose which one they want to use when opening the program, with the opportunity to convert it later in the process.
The option is & # 39; Correct & # 39 ;, for example, It is the most obvious and simple option, with all capital letters, numbers and special characters. This keyboard is perfect for those who know exactly what and how they want to type. You can also choose whether you want the keyboard to be available in alphabetical order, QWERTY or AZERTY.
But the most interesting option for this app is the full keyboard, which shows the keyboard exactly the way it looks on iOS. Since the Apple Watch is very small, this keyboard works with predictions and suggestions to improve the text message.
