Help with translation

3 hours ago by krysded to c/thumbkey

So I got back to translating the app to czech. I would like to finally finish it. But I have problem with translating some of the parts because I am unsure what the settings exactly does. So if I could get some closer explanations for some of them it would be nice.

  1. Spacebar: Allow normal swipes to work with slide gestures
  2. Backspace: Allow normal swipes to work with slide gestures Just these two for now.

Enabling Spacebar: Allow normal swipes to work with slide gestures, in keyboard settings will enable the following:

Swipe left and right to move the cursor by a single character.
Allow us to use the other characters on the spacebars in the typesplit layouts.

Enabling Backspace: Allow normal swipes to work with slide gestures, in keyboard settings will enable the following:

Swipe left to delete whole words to the left of the cursor.
Swipe right to delete whole words to the right of the cursor.

About

Thumb-Key is a privacy-conscious smart keyboard, made specifically for your thumbs.

It features a 3x3 grid layout, as many older phones had, and uses swipes for the less common letters. Initial testing shows that you can reach ~25 words per minute after a day of use.

Instead of relying on profit-driven, privacy-offending word and sentence prediction for accuracy, as do most popular phone keyboards like Gboard and Swiftkey, Thumb-Key uses large keys with predictable positions, to prevent your eyes from hunting and pecking for letters.

As the key positions get ingrained into your muscle memory, eventually you'll be able to appromixate the fast speeds of touch-typing, your eyes never having to leave the text edit area.

This project is a follow-up to the now unmaintained (and closed-source) MessageEase Keyboard, which is its main inspiration.
