iPhone users can rejoice. As much as we love our iPhones and have somewhat mastered texting on them, sometimes we find ourselves saying, “There must be a better way.”
Well, now there is.
Over the weekend, the Next Keyboard launched on Kickstarter and surpassed its $10,000 goal in just two days.
The Next Keyboard for the iPhone was created by software company Tiny Hearts and is promising a much more efficient way to type by providing users with rapid editing, predictive typing, instant emojis, and a variety of themes.
For starters, when you need to edit a text, you no longer have to move your cursor to the exact spot. Next Keyboard offers Quick Cursor Swipe so you can swipe across the spacebar and land your cursor exactly where you want it.

If you hate searching through pages for your favorite emojis, this keyboard eliminates multiple pages by offering a scroll solution. It also suggests the emoji that may work best with your text.

Some other features include Next Word Prediction, colored keyboard themes, and the certainty of knowing exactly whether your shift key is on or off.
The keyboard also learns your texting personality so that autocorrect does not keep correcting the words you really mean to say.

If you have an iPhone 6 Plus, this feature won’t excite you all that much, but now all iPhone users can indulge in the keyboard’s “swipe-to-type” feature that allows you to more easily engage in one-handed typing by sliding your finger across the keyboard to the characters you want to use.
Tiny Hearts has already raised over $11,000 for the keyboard in just two days and is aiming for a February 2015 launch.
