This thing will eat battery superquickly. I think minuum is a better choise for this task: it's a virtual keyboard (normal battery usage), doesn't occupy 90% of the screen, gives similar typing speed if not better.
Surprised to see Microsoft making something like this for Android Wear rather than making their own watch platform that would benefit from it. Still, this is an interesting approach given the very severe constraints of the watch interface. With some refinement, it might give Minuum a run for its money. 😉
This app completely misses the point of what an Android Wear device is supposed to be. It's supposed to be a quick at-a-glance way to get information or perform an action.Â
I could speak an entire paragraph in the time it took to write out two words with this app. I think MS might be trolling Android Wear.

Nothing special, correct under auto text.
Even Microsoft itself is not using Bing? Wow.
Not bad 🙂
This can be useful in smartphone for languages like japanese and chinese
They could put that on lumia smartphones
When i saw "keyboard" i thought a real keyboard lol.
ELLE EST OU Cette  RECONNAISSANCE VOCALE PROMISE DEPUIS DES ANÉE *, ???
I'm surprised they didn't use bing for the search engine.
I like this a lot. Wonder if this is a glimpse into MS's wearable future…

Can someone tell me the name of the first smartwatch being used for messaging? I think its the moto 360.. Thanks
Why not use voice recognition
how it was able to differentiate between a lowercase L, uppercase i, number 1 in order to make a '#' symbol baffles me.

Some nice stuff coming out of the Microsoft research labs these days.
LMAO. the letters are too small. its kinda awkward putting messaging on your watch and searching on google.
No funciona en LG GWatch. No work in LG GWatch

This keyboard for smartwatches is still a very beta But has a los of future… Very useful.
I'm sure a good amount of work has been put into this, but the method seems slow and tedious as heck to me.
Nice job, thats awesome!
Microsoft is really stepping it up as a technology company.
How can I get this?
@AshwinGupta why'd you wanna double trap when the space bar is right there and only requires a single tap?
If double tap on the screen can act as a space bar, its a great solution to type fast on a watch.
Goob job
