BIG1 Keyboard

BIG1 Keyboard makes readability a priority. Large letters, an adjustable keyboard size help you create a typing experience that feels comfortable.

Designed with people with reduced vision in mind, BIG1 places word suggestions, emoji descriptions and character names between the rows of letters. You can read suggestions and choose what you need directly within the keyboard.

MAKE THE KEYBOARD COMFORTABLE FOR YOU

• Adjust the keyboard size using a preview of the layout.
• Choose from the available themes.
• Use the alphabetical layout option.
• Turn key highlighting, sound and vibration on or off.

WORD AND LETTER SUGGESTIONS

Get English word suggestions as you type, or enable letter suggestions to help guide your next keystroke. Choose the options that suit your typing style.

BIG1 also learns unfamiliar words after you use them twice, helping your personal dictionary reflect the words you actually write. Automatic capitalization helps you start a new sentence with a capital letter.

FIND EMOJI BY NAME

Find emoji using short, readable English descriptions. Type the beginning of a word in the description to narrow the results.

Descriptions appear on a single line between the keyboard rows. Matching text is highlighted in bright yellow, making it easier to see how a result relates to your search.

The emoji list filters out characters that your device cannot display.

CHARACTERS WITH READABLE NAMES

Find punctuation marks, brackets, arrows, currency signs and other characters by their names. Short descriptions help you distinguish similar symbols.

Switch directly between Characters and Emoji, or use the keyboard icon to return to typing.

EDIT WITH SIMPLE GESTURES

• Tap Backspace to delete the previous character.
• Swipe left on Backspace to delete the last word.
• Swipe right on Backspace to restore the most recently deleted text.
• Open Pointer control to position the cursor and access text editing tools.

USEFUL CONTROLS CLOSE AT HAND

Graphic command icons give you access to numbers, characters, emoji, voice input, settings and pointer control.

BIG1 supports portrait and landscape layouts. Emoji and Characters modes remain selected when you rotate your phone.

EVERYDAY TYPING WITHOUT CLOUD PROCESSING

Basic typing, dictionary suggestions and emoji or character lookup work on your device without an internet connection. Voice input uses a compatible voice recognition service available on your phone and may require internet access.
