## Unexpected Keyboard Custom Layouts
|
|
|
|
MessagEase and a tweaked QWERTY (US) layouts that work together. MessagEase is best for vertical, one handed orientations. QWERTY for landscape.
|
|
|
|
The QWERTY layout is an adjusted form of the bundled QWERTY (US) layout to be more consistent with the MessagEase layout. It is strongly recommended to use both of these layouts together.
|
|
|
|
Both layouts allow you to flip/flop between the two as well as launch the Android keyboard picker so you can easily swap between MessagEase, QWERTY (US) within Unexpected Keyboard and switch to a different keyboard as appropriate.
|
|
|
|
## Adding to Unexpected Keyboard
|
|
|
|
To use these layouts you can copy/paste the contents of the `xml` files into the Unexpected Keyboard custom layout editor.
