Typing and the space bar

[mcbrett]

Everytime I type- I inadvertently add periods to my sentences because the space bar is so small. Does anyone else have this issue and is there an app I can download with a better keyboard? I have been searching over so many keyboard apps- but none of them address the space bar issue.


Thanks

i.have.the.same.exact.issue.

my sentences normally look like that

You guys don't use swype? Never have that problem.

I also have the same issue with the periods.

I tried swype but don't like it.

 

[arctic388]

same problem here. tried swype and didn't like it. why did they not leave out the period and just auto punctuate on a spacebar double press.

I'm using the Swiftkey X beta and have the same problem

I also hate how it won't let me put 2 spaces after a period. I'm very anal about those 2 spaces

i downloaded the gingerbread keyboard from the market and it also puts a period after hitting space twice but u can take that setting off in the GB keyboard

Mcbrett, you hit the nail on the head when you asked if there is a "better keyboard". That's excatly the app you should search for in the market. Type in better keyboard in the search and you'll be good to go. I've been using it since I had my fascinate and had to start using it again because of the Charge's midget spacebar and the periods I kept dumping in my sentences.

are you talking about the better keyboard 8 free version?

You guys still type? The voice to text works so well for me I rarely touch the keyboard except to hit the microphone button.....

I thought you were kidding about the voice option I just sent myself an email and it works great.

 

[balthuszar]

voice to text, there's swype, swiftkey x, 8pen

This keyboard fixed it for me. I had the same problem as did my daughter with this phone. Other things were in a better spot for me as well.

Always having the period problem as well. Try using swype. Samsung had it built in for a reason, they knew their stock keyboard would suck.

Plus one for keyboard pro. Got rid of the punctuation and have a giant spacebar now. Much better.

SwiftKey x. Rarely even have to use the spacebar once you get used to it. Plus it has the best word prediction out there. Never liked swype- feels a bit awkward and it makes my thumb hurt when I use it too long.

Can you explain the difference because I couldn't figure it out.

SwiftKey is awesome. I used swipe and I hated how it predicts text. SwiftKey puts the predictive text in an easy to reach spot. Love it.
