The Apple Watch Series 7 just launched, and it comes with an on-screen keyboard called QuickPath, which looks quite similar to FlickType.
The new Apple Watch Series 7 launched today, and these new smartwatches come with several big upgrades over the previous models. From a bigger display to updated hardware and even some new software features, the Watch Series 7 are the best Apple Watches yet. The new Apple Watch Series 7 also run the latest version of watchOS out of the box — watchOS 8. With the new release and larger display, Apple made a new QWERTY keyboard for the watch called QuickPath, which makes it possible to type to reply to messages. While a keyboard app is nice to have, it isn’t innovative and certainly isn’t original. In fact, Apple is accused of cloning another keyboard app for the Apple Watch called FlickType. Its founder, Kosta Eleftheriou, filed a lawsuit against Apple earlier this year after the company took down the iPhone version of the app. Eleftheriou took to Twitter following the announcement of the Apple Watch Series 7, where he shared the email that the App Store Review team sent after taking down the app earlier this year. The email states that his app violated the Apple iOS Human Interface Guidelines section of the App Store Review Guidelines.
