How to write by hand on your Android mobile or tablet

It is an official keyboard that Google launched, and that very probably very few of us will have used, because it does not present great advantages for those users who use an on-screen touch keyboard with speed. However, it can be useful in certain cases. For example, we may know a user who does not like the normal keyboard, and prefers to write by hand. It could also be great if we have a high-level stylus or stylus, such as the Samsung S-Pen, or some other that we have purchased and want to use it to write by hand.

The keyboard is very good. It perfectly recognizes the strokes of the letters, and since it also has a dictionary, even making mistakes is able to know what we wanted to write. We even have suggestions about the keyboard, so that in case the word that the keyboard has considered that we wanted to write was not the correct one, we can choose between other suggestions.

How to activate it

Although there are smartphones that already have this keyboard installed, you will only have to go to Google Play to get it if that is not your case. Once the app is installed, run it and follow the three steps it tells you to activate it. If once you have it active, you want to switch to the conventional keyboard, you will only have to hold down the Space key, and it will let you choose any other keyboard you have installed. The Google Handwriting keyboard is perfect for tablets, although the truth is that its operation on smartphones is also good.
