Keyboards and Security

**T-Bone** · 03-01-2013, 05:20 AM

Hi Everyone,

I just installed the Adaptxt keyboard on my Dx. When I changed the keyboard to Adaptxt, I got a message that said: “This input method may be able to collect all the text you type, including personal data like passwords and credit card numbers. It comes from the application Adapttxt. Use this input method?”

Is this a concern? Is this common with all 3rd party keyboards?

Thanks for your help.

ALL 3d party keyboards state this and it is a requirement for them to state this as well. No... don't be concerned with it.
