User Reviews

Most reviewers praise WatchType as a free, accessible keyboard for Apple Watch texting that works with VoiceOver and generally feels easy to use, with no ads. The main downsides are paywalls: most fonts and themes require payment and free options are limited. Users also report typing accuracy issues (hitting the wrong keys) and some workflow friction (compose in another app to send, or extra steps). There are occasional reliability concerns (it doesn’t work for some). Overall, it's useful if you can tolerate the paid content and occasional usability quirks.
Pros
  • Free core keyboard with no mandatory payment
  • Works with VoiceOver accessibility on iPhone
  • Useful for texting on the Apple Watch
  • No ads
  • Generally easy to use
Cons
  • Paywalls: most features and fonts require payment
  • Limited free fonts (only one free option)
  • Typing accuracy issues: hard to hit the right key
  • Workflow friction: must compose in a separate app and then send
  • Occasional reliability issues: app may not work

I wish I chould use keyboard within iMessage but, you have to open the app. Then type what your want and then add the contact/s you want to text. I personally think this is a hassle. just to be able to use a keyboard on my watch. While this app has goo features for example changing the color and font(etc), but these changes require a fee to be able to use. So this app is a good choice if you want to use app that requires you to the text within the app. So I’m gonna give it 3 ⭐️⭐️⭐️’s.

It's annoying because I can't do anything without paying.
