ShapeWriter Lite

Enter text on your iPhone in a new, fast and fun way!

Built on many years of scientific research at the IBM Almaden Research Center, ShapeWriter is a revolutionary text input method that frees you from the constraints and frustrations of a conventional method. Simply slide your finger on the gesture-keyboard and lift to complete an entire word. ShapeWriters intelligent algorithms can turn the single gesture stroke into your intended word. For example, a stroke from F to U then to N on the keyboard will be recognized as the word "fun". Ignore repeat letters. For rare names and acronyms, type only once and you will be able to shape write the next time.

Features:
- Automatic spacing and capitalization
- Case key for cycling through all possible capitalization cases
- Highlight/selection by double tap or sliding over text
- Command strokes (e.g. Cmd-c-o-p for copy)
- Backup all notes via email
