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.

You can type which gets you distracted and then you need to open messages to actually send it


“Type” not “text”

I think that a lot of these people writing the review are not understanding what its for. Lets review the title, “type n walk” meaning you can type whatever you want while walking. It does not say “text n walk” or “text message n walk” it was not designed to send only a message, but it has that capability to do so. Its not perfect, but what did you expect from a small developer of apps. Great idea, ok deployment. I would rate this a 3.5 if I could.


Cool concept but not practical

Tried this app out yesterday while walking around the city and it really didn't make a big difference. The idea is really neat but you only see what is right in front of you so the chances of you avoiding things are not that high. Things above you or on the side won't be seen. I find that my periphery vision is much better at detecting things. This app has its own screen where you type. When you finish typing you can select where to send the text such as email, SMS, tweet, etc...


My go-to app
Right as rain

I have this on my home screen because I use it all the time. The transparency comes in very handy in a variety of situations. The only minor hitch is selecting the recipient when texting. Improve that and I will give you 5 stars.


Genius!!

Usually when I type, I have to keep looking up. Now, I can see wherever I go!! This is handy dandy! I especially like how you can send it straight to Twitter! This is a smart idea!! Totally good app!! Definitely recommend!

It's interesting but I don't like how you can only use that on the app. Not that much fun. I wouldn't have bought it had I known that. :/


Essential

Everyone here on campus uses this app. I'm not kidding. It's perfect for a quick text when I'm heading to my next class or we're going to meet up somewhere. I don't email that much so I can't comment much about that feature but it's there if you need it I guess. I mostly text and tweet and it's perfect for that.


Cool app! But needs facebook
Dsbalash

This is a genius idea and a great app, but there's a few other apps that are free AND include Facebook, which is nice. However, not having ads on this app is a bonus. Overall, pretty cool, but please add Facebook integration for non-twitter users!


Awesome !

Now I can text and still see the road while I'm driving ! Finally a safe solution !!!
