As mobile users, we’re all familiar with the so-called “fat finger” problem. Fleksy eliminates that issue altogether by providing an alternative smartphone keyboard designed to help the blind and visually impaired type accurately. The app uses state-of-the-art predictive technology to discern what a user wants to write, fixes errors and even speaks back words to insure they’re correct. The system lets users tap where they think each letter is, rather than pressing buttons precisely on the screen. With a replacement keyboard for Android devices launched at CES this year, Fleksy developer Syntella is rewriting the book on touch-typing.
