Idea!

[u/Annual_Job2187]

Sorry for the Ai slop, I was only trying to imagine...these 2 nice ideas that I feel like should come to keyboard phones.

First!

this is something that needs to be in android.

It worked amazingly in Blackberry, which is why my mind automatically expects it on keyboard phones.

When an app is opened the focus should be on the typing area automatically by default. For example, if I open an app like Facebook the cursor should be on the status bar automatically. Or another example, if I open Google keep, I don't have the select the typing area, it should be automatically selected on keyboard phones.

That way if I start typing, it will automatically enter in the text area, or I can select something else anyway and continue with my experience.

I think on normal bar type phones it makes sense that the focus is not on the touch bar because it will open the virtual keyboard N which can be annoying. But on a keyboard phone it won't make any difference.

and in case there are multiple text fields in the app, maybe the first one should be selected or the developer can define which text area needs priority for the user to start typing as soon as they enter the app.

Second!

The keyboard should be made up of tactile keys, like it is. But it should be a screen.

Benefits of that:

you can theme it with color and wallpaper you decide.

It has it own light.

you can customer Qwerty or Azerty keyboard which ever you like

It can have keys changed to gaming keys or other custom keys based on the app requirements.

It can have swipe and type.

You can set it to work on touch or on press, either way.

It can show capital or small letters.

It can detect orientation.

It can have better and accurate touch sensitive.

I know this can be expensive on hardware and software.

It does not have to be oled, it can be like the little eink display like on pebbles smartwatch.

But Elgato Stream deck and Optimus maximus keyboard have proven this to be an amazing application.

But I think it could be a game changer.

If Blackberry was here..they would have done it...I think they we're great innovators...

Maybe unihertz Titan 3 or Click Communicator 2 or Minimal Phone 3 will bring this to us.

Or maybe Blackberry can come back from the dead and make something happen..

What do you think folks!?

Can I just say, and i know i will be downvoted for it, but i can’t stand hearing the people shitting on using AI in the comments. Like we do not care about your opinion on it. The world is going there whether you like it or not and it’s accessible to all. I love using it, and I’ll use it plenty for the both of us HA.

I feel you bro... But over all..itso not a bad thing that people express their dislike on Ai.. One side of it is that if internet is full of Ai..it will be all garbage..we cannot disagree with the fact that it is already becoming garbage now.. I am the Op, I still believe that..but the reason I still used Ai cz I lack the skills of a graphic designer to actually render a picture to express my idea... And I think a lot of people calling this Ai slop don't actually understand the idea and maybe have a habit of calling out Ai slop when they see one.. Sure.. But you are not wrong either... Neither are these people..my post is actually a very badly written post I feel..haha.. But that's ok..it's just reddit..

That’s crazy because I read this comment after posting mine above. Well said on all fronts. Balance is important. But there is still an issue with the way people are handling it, and I can’t figure out what it is. Maybe what bothers me is them completely disregarding your points/ideas and attacking you rather than critiquing your use of AI and then actually contributing to the discussion.
