KeyPoint's Adaptxt Enhances User Experience of Android Mobile Devices

12 Nov 2012

KeyPoint Technologies, Ltd. (KPT) announced the release of two new Android-compatible versions of its Adaptxt Smart Keyboard App, an application that helps to address the inconvenience of typing using a virtual keyboard. Adaptxt 1.0 is compatible with smartphones that run on Android 2.1 or later versions. Adaptxt 2.0, on the other hand, is compatible with tablets that run on Android 2.2 or later.

The prior Adaptxt Beta Version 1.0 for Android tablets was released in July 2012. The latest versions of the app are said to enable both Android smartphone and tablet users to type emails and text messages more quickly and accurately than before. The tablet version of the app sports a split keyboard style.

Unlike traditional predictive keyboard apps, Adaptxt is equipped with artificial intelligence that identifies unique words and phrases typed by the user and adds those words to a personalized dictionary. The said dictionary is readily customizable, and users can delete and add new words anytime. KeyPoint claims that its intuitive text input solution makes it easy for end users to communicate while encouraging them to be more expressive.

Other Adaptxt features include language-driven keyboard layouts like AZERTY, QWERTY, QWERTZ, and QZERTY. There's also a twelve-key phone-style keypad. In the two new versions of Adaptxt, an automatic text replacement feature lets users make one-touch shortcuts for their frequently used phrases.

KeyPoint's keyboard app also includes 103 custom languages, 68 language dictionaries from Arabic to Vietnamese, and 35 industry-specific dictionaries that cover various professions such as the finance, legal, and medical industries. All the 103 dictionary add-ons are free from Google Play, Amazon, and GetJar.

Adaptxt is said to feature an unprecedented SMS dictionary that contains over 3,000 shorthand abbreviations which can simplify the typing of text messages. The abbreviations include common text-message shortcuts such as "btw," "gr8," and "lol."

In addition, with a single tap on a touchscreen surface, the app lets users post messages on Facebook and Twitter. Users can also switch quickly between languages.

"The beta version of Adaptxt for smartphones averaged a 4.3 rating in the Google Play store, but we weren't comfortable with anything less than perfection," said Sumit Goswami, CEO of KeyPoint Technologies, Ltd. "We incorporated a year's worth of user feedback to create a 1.0 product that blows away keyboard apps that are in their 2.0 and 3.0 versions, not to mention the stock keyboard apps that come with Android tablets and smartphones."
