User Reviews

Most reviews report reliability and usability issues on Apple Watch. The top cons are frequent crashes/black screens, non-functional swipe typing, and a confusing setup. Input often feels inaccurate and the small keyboard complicates typing, making the process slow. Several users label the app as not worth the price and seek refunds. A minority note that the standard keyboard can work reasonably well and iMessages can function with proper configuration, but these positives are far less common than the reported issues.
Pros
  • Some users report the standard keyboard works reasonably well and autocorrect/prediction can be effective in certain scenarios.
  • The app provides a keyboard option for typing on the Apple Watch, which is what some users were seeking.
  • A few reviewers note iMessages compatibility when configured properly.
Cons
  • App frequently fails to run, with crashes or black screen on startup and unresponsive behavior.
  • Swipe-to-text/slide typing feature is non-functional or buggy for many users.
  • Initial setup is confusing or AWKward, with unclear instructions and a multi-step workflow.
  • Input accuracy is poor for many users, with a small keyboard leading to mis-typed words and errors.
  • Perceived low value for money, with multiple users expressing they want refunds or feel it isn’t worth the price.

I just purchased this app because I wanted to use a keyboard on my watch. I do not like this app because if you do not buy the WristBoard+ you can only send a certain amount of messages per day, it does not auto correct, you can not swipe, and you can not use emojis. The keyboard is too small. It takes a long time to send the message. You have to type the message then you have to select where you want to send it, either through messages or email, then you have to select the contact, and then you send it. It is not what I was expecting and I do not recommend.

So far so good. Works as it says it does with iMessages, but you do have to go to the options on your watch to make sure it sends iMessages instead of asking which is extremely easy to do. At first I had a problem writing certain words because of auto correct, (slang words lol) once I turned auto correct off, worked a lot better, I see no problems with it. Was hesitant to download because of the reviews but after downloading it, I have had absolutely no problems, plus it is iOS 9.1 ready and even better, they don’t collect private information so nothing is tied to you using this app, which is something that I look at before downloading any app. Would recommend. Update March 10, 2024. App is still working great!
