Android ShapeWriter WritingPad (a version with better editing with music)

available at http://www.shapewriter.com/download/index.html

ShapeWriter is an innovative, original, fun, and highly efficient method of entering text into touch screen mobile phones.

ShapeWriter lets the user to simply draw a continuous stroke from letter to letter on a soft keyboard and lift to complete the word. The resulting trace is recognized as the intended word. For example: to write the word "fun", land the pen (or mouse cursor) on the F key, drag to the U key, continue to the N key and lift up the pen. ShapeWriter recognizes the curso trace F-U-N as the word "fun".

@Hanklink1014

ShapeWriter technology was developed long before any other gesture keyboard. Just looked at the date of this video. In fact the first release of ShapeWriter (named SHARK) was in 2004!

@ShapeWriterInc hmmm... makes you wonder why swype is getting all of the credit. dont get me wrong, i LOVE swype, but if this was out first, it should also be recognized.

Good looking product but what's with that AWFUL music? I couldn't watch past the first line with the sound on. I feel like I'm being punished for something!

No, this is a third party app someone made for the Andriod OS.

should be if it won the developer challenge.

Cool, this will be totally badass. Is it default in Android?
