Stenodroid Pro (Motorola Pro+)

Simply faster write: The app has been developed and tested to provide the hardware keyboard of the device with extra features for the hardware keyboard of the Motorola Pro + (German version). If the app also supports other hardware keyboards, then the 'random' - I'm looking forward to appropriate feedback. For devices without hardware buttons will not operate this app, so please no bad reviews when the app on devices without hardware keyboard does not do anything ...

If there are problems or new ideas for additional features, then you gladly turns to me. I am very open to feedback

The app has the following features:

1 Automatic numeric entry by pressing the corresponding letter key (optional switchable)

Alternative 2 2nd keyboard function: A brief press on the Mikronfontaste the device (bottom right) switches to an alternative keyboard layout to (optionally switched off). The active 2nd Keyboard mode is displayed in the header by an icon:

a German umlauts and 'ß' cleaned up faster typing (optional switchable)

b. Multimedia keys: from other applications out multimedia commands such as Play / Stop / Next / Previous can send to the installed media player, without having to leave the app: Push 'n': next song; '.' Button: previous song; Key 'm': Mute / Stop; Press 'p': Play / Pause (optional switchable)

c. Enable cursor navigation that can be turned off with a further pressure on Microphontaste again. t = top; v = bottom; f = left; h = right; d = starting line; j = end of line; mark g = text; r = initial text; b = end of text; z = Page Up; c = Page Down (optional switchable)

d cursor navigation either in Locked mode (2nd mode is retained) or in the default mode: 2nd-mode is reset after a single application.

e 2nd keyboard and BACKSPACE deletes the right of the cursor.

f 2nd keyboard and SPACE selects the first entry from the list of proposed learning dictionary (see below).

3 text replacement / Text Expansion: It can be defined as text shortcuts that are automatically expanded to longer texts such as "Sincerely," "mfg.". (Optional switchable)

a The replacement rules are freely configurable. Text shortcuts consist exclusively of (small) letters. To expand this during editing, they are entered together with a starting point.

b. Text expansion can also include variables such as # (DATE), # (TIME), # (DAY) that are dynamically evaluated.

c. From a set of rules backups can be created in an XML file. These XML files can also be edited separately with an editor and can then be played back to Stenodroid.

d Experimental: BlackBerry (TM) mode. Text abbreviations are expanded, even without preliminary point. (Can be disabled)

4-learning dictionary: in the footer options for completions displayed. For selected terms, the frequency is counted and on this basis to optimize the sequence of the proposals.


Installation:

The information requested by the app permissions are required to manage backups. A free version of this program with ad insertion is also available.

Activation:

Enable System Settings => Language & keyboard => Option for 'Stenodroid' with checkbox and select it as the default input method. Android warns of activation as with any alternative keyboard app before that the app could also detect "Passwords" and "credit card numbers". It is true that the Android system, the app allows these full access. I promise that I will not make use of this possibility.
