QWERTZ is an arrangement of keys on the keyboard, which has been considered a standard in the world for 140 years. But this type of layout was designed and optimized for typewriters. And while everything around it was changing drastically (screens, computers, phones), the keyboard stuck to its arrangement like a drunkard. At Swiss icoaching, they were convinced that there was a better solution, a keyboard that would answer the challenges of the time, that is, above all, easier typing on the touch screen on smartphones. They wanted to make a keyboard for fast, error-free typing. And Wrio was born, an on-screen keyboard with a honeycomb letter layout.
Wrio it is an on-screen keyboard with a honeycomb letter layout, which is a big departure from QWERTY or QWERTZ the key layout that we all have in our little finger. And maybe this arrangement is suitable for a keyboard as a peripheral, but sure does not respond to the challenges of time, which they brought smartphones and touch screens. Many people today work remotely and write e-mails on the go, which exposes all the weaknesses and highlights the obsolescence of the QWERTZ layout.
Typing with the Wrio keyboard is more than just that faster, but prevents them from getting stuck, which (in addition to the sometimes annoying automatic correction) goes to the soul of lowercase letters in particular. The new arrangement gives them the opportunity to "make themselves comfortable", so that even those who with bigger and thicker fingers. Some keys have disappeared, space bar ("space") and they "sat". And now it is no longer long, but there are two, equal in size to the others and in the position of the thumbs. They are with this reduced the distance between the keys (the place is also more optimal for one-handed typing), which consequently speed up writing.

At startup icoching, they are Wrio as they say remove unnecessary keys and "buried" them in finger gestures (for example, the elevator key, better known as the shift key, and the delete key, etc.). Also, the team strives to develop smart autocorrection, which learns vocabulary from the user, thus eliminating suggestions that the writer will probably never use. If you are fed up with the usual way of typing, then just consider the on-screen keyboard with the arrangement of letters in the form of a honeycomb. Is waiting for you on Kickstarter, where icoching is diligently raising startup funds. You won't have to dig deep into your pocket for it, as it costs everything (calculated) 4.5 euros.
