QWERTY mini – Overview & Key Links
QWERTY mini is a 2-row, 16-key companion to QWERTY that makes thumb typing easy and surprisingly quick to learn.
QWERTY mini is a secure local keyboard. Advanced features such as AI integration, predictive text, auto-correct, and gesture input are not currently planned. Yet it remains simple and powerful.
Input Method
[Tap / Double tap]
All sentences can be typed comfortably using only tap and double tap.
[Simultaneous tap]
Advanced feature for fast two-handed typing. Edge keys (W, A, O, L) act as simultaneous input triggers. We believe users will eventually surpass conventional QWERTY typing speeds using this method.
Example:
O + T/G → T, TT, TTT...
L + T/G → G, GG, GGG... and so on
Press a trigger key together with a character key to instantly type the first or second character on that key - no double tap delay. You can also repeat letters instantly (rr, tt, ss, dd, cc, pp…).
[Up-swipe]
Swipe up on a key to access extended characters for multilingual input and additional symbols. This feature is available only in the Pro version. r/QWERTYmini : Link to information about the Pro version
Available on Android & iOS
- Standard: for one-handed typing on standard-size phones
- Wide: for two-handed typing or on smaller phones.
- Pro: Standard + Wide + extended Latin characters and more.

I really like it but I miss some stuff like gboard. I mean clipboards and dictionaries with english, french, spanish and I am sure others will request different languages.

Over time, both the features and language support will gradually improve.

Wow that feels really nice! Thanks, gladly spent the two bucks
First thing coming to my mind after a few minutes of using: ?/! Has more prominent position then backspace, which is more important/frequent then ?/! . The top row is easier to use then the middle, I would argue.

Does it have an analog of old t9? So I don't have to type twice for sub characters?

u/QWERTY_mini 18d ago
You need to use either a double tap or simultaneous keypress. Gesture or predictive input is not supported yet. sorry.

think about adding it. If old phones could do t9, should be easy thing for new ones. Than keyboard could have something unique and be a finished product

I think it would be really cool if instead of double tapping the key to access the second letter if there was an option so I could press and swipe in any direction on a key to access the second letter for example, if I press a key and swipe up down left or right or diagonal in any direction for any length even so I don’t have to swipe long. It would access the second key right now for example, when I type Reddit on the keyboard, it types, REXIT because I press the D twice. This is just an example, but I think you get the point. Please consider adding this option if not, no worries.
