Reading your article on touchscreen keyboards that adapt to a user’s style to improve typing accuracy (2 June, p 23) left me with a question. Is this best done by software that creates a modified keyboard which is kept invisible behind the standard display, or by showing this personalised layout?
The editor writes:
• The researchers tested both, but accuracy was only improved when changes were kept invisible, which presumably avoids the temptation to try to adapt to a new display.
