## Description

Type n Walk™ is the smarter, safer way to type while you're walking.

Type n Walk™ displays a transparent viewport of what's directly in front of you. This combined with your peripheral vision is just enough visual information to help you avoid obstacles -- like walking face-first into a pole!

Despite the name, Type n Walk™ is useful while you're sitting or standing too. Use it anytime you would like to keep an eye on your surroundings while you type.

## Review summary

Reviews consistently praise the app for safety-minded typing while walking, with generally solid performance and an ad-free experience. However, users repeatedly complain that the app cannot text or share via SMS/iMessage, suffers from camera-permission issues, appears incompatible on newer iPhone models, and is limited to Facebook/Twitter sharing. They also express a desire for iMessage integration as a key improvement.

### Pros

- Helps prevent accidents while walking
- Generally works well and uses a modern keyboard
- Ad-free experience

### Cons

- Cannot text or share via SMS/iMessage; only typing
- Camera access/permission issues; prompts missing and privacy/settings concerns
- Not compatible with newer iPhone models; updates seem to break functionality
- Limited sharing options (only Facebook and Twitter)
