I'd love to beta test again! My guess for new feature would be the ability to customize the symbols on the bottom row. Or maybe the option to have symbols on the middle row keys.

the current version is pretty nice and super fast but i am missing some things like

-customizable long press time right now long press time being to long is the most annoyingthng)
-a cleaner more minimalistic theme
-option to access the numbers and exta character via up swipe down the corresponding letter button and type capitalized on swipe up or vice versa(should be optional i think)
-sort of less busy feel when typing,it seems to happen to lot all around with the predictions and the letter popups,its quite distracting

A dictionary that one can add or remove words would be a major boon

Galaxy Note N7000: JonRom UBLSF V1 + HelloWorld + XXLSO on Telstra

You can already add and delete words in TouchPal's internal dictionary. Turn off prediction first and key in your word and then it will show an option in the prediction area to save the word. If you enter a word by mistake, long press it in the prediction bar and an option will appear to delete it. You can also change the priority of your custom word by long pressing it from the prediction bar and choose Higher.

Maybe removing haptic feedback, typing sound and change pop-up preview to none can help in the "busy feel" that you are experiencing.

sorry but if this beta is all about improving the wave feature i don´t even want to participate.I would have rather omptized the current version than already starting a new method.I am not that into swiping,i prefer to punching letters to write.
Hope the current keyboard still gets improved too though.

If SwiftKey had the half-qwerty layout, I would switch in a heartbeat. I use TouchPal mainly because of the T+ and T12 layout. Never really touched full qwerty (unless its in the address bar where it becomes the default) nor TouchPal Curve.

  1. Better improved prediction of the next word.
  2. Type as you speak

  7. Index of words or used words to be able to manually add to or delete from
  8. A stats page of how well the keyboard performs for you (similar to swiftkeys stats page)

I want to be a beta tester because TouchPal seems to be the company that most cares about its customers. Nuance and Swiftkey provide an awful customer service and rarely care about our feedback. Besides, I was a tester for the current version of your keyboard.

I think that the best feature to add would be an easy edition of the user dictionary. Deleting and adding words in batch, for instance. Every user could make lists in txt files with technical words of the field he works in and share it with the others.

The first of all the keyboards that implement this will really make the most high demanding users to stick to it.

Really looking forward to seeing the evolution of this software.

I'd love to be part of the beta again. Have used touchpal since the old Windows days. I reckon a mini keyboard that can be moved to either the left or right of the screen so you can curve easily on tablets. And touchpal wave.

Thank you for your feedback, the feature will be include in near future. Welcome you participate TouchPal Wave Beta testing!
