Microsoft to bring Windows keyboard to iOS with one-hand typing mode

Microsoft has started testing the Windows Phone keyboard for iOS. It is known to be testing an early version internally. That’s not all. According to a report by The Verge, citing people related to the matter, claims that the company will be including a new one-handed mode of typing too. With this mode, the keys shift to one side in a fan-shaped layout, allowing users to access the keys easily along with emojis and word suggestions. One can even use the swipe gestures for typing.

You can access word suggestions, emoji, and swipe letters (like Swype) to type out words,” the report explains. The Word Flow keyboard for iOS is expected to be launched in a few months and the Android version later this year. The additional feature will not go down well with those currently using Windows 10 Mobile. They may be disappointed as Microsoft is willing to bring an addition to iOS instead.
