The only problem is that the letrada are very small.

iPhone 4

Please update for iPhone retina display. Thanks!

Ansich toll

Nur halt is die app nichma ipod touch 5 optimiert

Good but...

Good but would be nice to be able to write in french with the accents.

Great, but not too useful

It functions perfectly, and is a lot of fun, but emailed documents only keep their formatting if sent as images; emails sent as text are unformatted so you might as well just use the email app. Also, there is no apostrophe at all.

Sound?

Why is the sound quality so LOW? I literally have my volume on full blast and I can barely here the tapping! ): I really wanted the typewriter sound, please fix this! Also, please add a vertical view! I am not a fan of typing horizontally! Edit: Also add a copy & paste feature, please!

Nice idea app!

I like the idea! And keyboard looks really nice! I have some requests. 1) More heavy machinery sound when typing. Current sound is little bit too light. 2) More realistic movement when return lever pressed. Ive seen a real machine do this movement but this apps move is too fast. Although I liked very much!

i need

copy and paste :-(

There are some issues to fix!!!!

Fonts really too small!!! You can barely see what you are writing!!!! In addiction, when you send it as email text it will not show these nice fonts!!!! It seems useless!!! Fix it!

Very good but.....

There should be a lite version to this app it is very good still.

SMS????????

This app is a waste of money. It need the option to be able to send SMS. Very hard to type accurately. Dont waste your Monet

This is fun

This app is so cool! Its exactly like a real type writer!! I just wish that you could save what you wrote as a picture wrather than emailing it to yourself. have recemened this app to everyone i know who has an iphone/ipod touch!!! Worth a dollar, expecially if you have a creatative mind. Please make a version for ipad!?

Awesome

I wish there was a way that the keys would depress instead of magnafy.

Great potential

the keys are small, but the sound is awesome. OMG, the animatiom rocks! Its a little slow for long messgages and somewhat hard to read. AND, no going back for editing!

it is a nice typewriter emulator

It feels mosly like an old typewriter. The keys, animations, and sounds feel about right. Its too bad apple doesnt support user customization of the keyboard across all apps. It currently (v1.3) only supports emailing the text you have entered. It might be more useful if the author included an action (maybe a single tap on the typed text) that would transfer all text to the clipboard. Currently you can go into the email stage and copy all text from there. Im ok with the keys animating up. There wouldnt be much point in them animating down. But maybe you could add an option to turn it off. On the iphone the popup keys are helpful to avoid mistakes. A few things I would like to see change are: 1. As mentioned earlier, a way to copy text. If you want to go above and beyond, include sound/animation like pulling the sheet out. Maybe it could store the last few memos somewhere - I would like to be able to come back to this text if I screw up the paste to another app. 2. do carriage return with a swipe action. it doesnt recognize a swipe on the icon. maybe it could recognize both a a tap and a swipe. 3. a help page. it took me a while to find the carriage return. and then a while to figure out how to actuate it. 4. maybe a swipe up/down to scroll the text. there are only five lines visible at a time. 5. pressing shift should undo shift lock - that is the way i remember it working. at the moment shift seems locked out when lock is on. 6. multi touch use of the shift key might make it feel better -- i.e. hold shift with one finger and type a key with another, instead of shift latching on until next key is pressed. I can see how this might annoy some people familiar with iphone behavior though. It is a nice little app. Probably worth a buck or two if you think you would use a retro interface for more than a few mintues.

Return key?

Nice but wheres the return key

Love it

This is a lot of fun. The return is a lever on the left like a real typewriter. No problems sending messages via email or reading them. This goes on my front page with favorite apps.

As old as it gets

This really feels like typing on an old typewriter...this is the sound writers like John Fante heard as they typed their tales of yesterday... This app makes it real like 1936

Cool!

Was thinking to myself... I wonder if someone has made a typewriter app... And viola! Here it is! Definitely worth while for the price. Look forward to future updates.

Realistic

I really only write reviews for my favorite apps, and this is one of them. It actually makes it somewhat fun just to type! It really has an old look and feel thats just pure awesome. Its worth the 99¢ easily.
