Learning Dvorak – TapTyping - typing trainer suite Review

Useful for learning Dvorak. Otherwise a 5 star app, I have to deduct 2 stars because it doesn’t sync progress across devices. Using a cooler master blue cherry switch mechanical keyboard, I physically took out the keys and set them up for Dvorak (very easy). I connected it through a USB adapter that I originally bought for connecting cameras to iPads. I changed my iOS Settings, Keyboard -> hardware keyboard to be Dvorak. Now I just peck type and use this app. Note that some hardware keyboards don’t work because they say the iPad doesn’t provide enough power. Bluetooth mechanical keyboards are kind of new and I don’t know if I trust them, but you can use any Bluetooth keyboard. Just print out a picture of a Dvorak keyboard layout. This works great and it might be better than moving around the keys. I moved around the keys because I wanted to fully commit to this project. This is my 3rd attempt at learning Dvorak (every couple of years around winter when I have extra time I take on this project and eventually get bored and quit). I wish this app had Dvorak tutorials, but it’s fine, and probably only .001% of users would appreciate this feature. The worst thing about this app is it doesn’t sync across the cloud.
