Description
Touching less wrong keys !
The new way of typing with finger scope. Easier typing with the small smartphone keys with the patent pending TuneKey app. Easier typing is possible because of the new finger scope between the keys which above all can be enlarged.
With the standard smartphone keys typing on the wrong key often happens, especially with larger fingers. This is because the touch surfaces, the active non-visible parts of the standard keys that are sensitive to touch, lie against each other. This is also the case when the standard keys are visually smaller. With TuneKey the touch surfaces of the smaller keys do not lie against each other. There is just space between the touch surfaces. In this way the fingers have scope around a key and hit much less a wrong key. The smaller the settings of the TuneKey keys the larger these finger scopes between the touch surfaces are. Then it is easier to type with smaller keys, especially with larger fingers. This is what TuneKey does remarkably better, confirmed with beta testers.
In contrast to many other keyboard apps typed text and/ or personal information is not collected and not saved by TuneKey.
Emoji/ Emoticons and colour settings are available on the TuneKey® keyboard.

Ratings and Reviews
Be Aware!
This App does achieve what it claims namely, allowing the user to decrese the size of the sensitive "touch" area to give more null space between keys to hopefully cause less mistyping by the user. My error rate did not not seem to improve significantly, though i like the improved keyboard layout particularly the option of background color to the keys which makes them standout.
Beware however, the first day i used this keyboard i was in tte middle of writing a long email and suddenly the keyboard disapeared and a message came on "pay $1 to bring back the key board". How frequently will this "pay to play" come on? i saw no hint of this feature in the app description. i would be willing to pay a $1 or $2 outright for access to this app, but not $1 or $2 a day! i quickly deleted the app.
Developer Response ,
What you mentioned in the last paragraph is very strange, not heard of this before. TuneKey has not this pay function. Currently Keyboard app TuneKey is free to use (no payment required, also no in app payments). Also our iPhones never show this pay message when using TuneKey keyboard. We reported this assumed issue to Apple. Perhaps it is because of another specific app you used/ interference?
Almost perfect
I love this keyboard! It definitely reduces my mistakes. The only thing that is lacking is a microphone button, and I use voice to text way too often to go without it. Also, when I press the key to access the punctuation buttons, they are weirdly transparent. Not a huge deal but I thought the developer should know.
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your nice review. The microphone button should show up underneath right under the keyboard (it normally does). Also the punctuation buttons normally show up without transparency to our experience.
This is what I’ve been looking for!
My only problem with iPhones is the small keyboard letters. I was considering getting a new phone to see if that would help, but not with this app, my keys are spaced just right. Good for regular texting and improved texting with the swipe function.
