Fan of Palm OS Graffiti? Get it for Your Android Phone
|
The original Palm OS featured a single-stroke input method called Graffiti to allow users to write characters out quickly through a touch interface. While it definitely may have taken some getting used to as certain character gestures were reworked to be slightly altered versions of their alphabet alternatives, it has developed quite a little following of fans over the years. Those craving the same experience on their Android phones can now enjoy Graffiti all over again thanks to Access.
Graffiti for Android brings everything you might remember from the Palm OS version down to the same input screen and help menus. Input via Graffiti can be recognized system-wide. Find the app for free in the market now.

Awesome!!
Looks similar to Google’s Gesture Search (yes I know Palm came first)
Fun as a blast from the past, but painfully slow compared to Swype.
Whoa, that brings up some good memories. I’ll install for fun.
OH, yeah!! This works well.
And it’s Graffiti 1, not that second abomination, though I do miss the capitalization method of 2.
it’s important to have some kind of handwriting recognition, especially for tablets.
sweet!
Technically speaking, it allowed you to quickly write things out through a stylus interface, not a touch interface (I never tried doing graffiti strokes with my finger, but I think that would have been difficult).
ahhhhhhhhhhh old memories <3 android
