Type n Walk™ displays a transparent viewport of whats directly in front of you. This combined with your peripheral vision is just enough visual information to help you avoid obstacles -- like walking face-first into a pole!
Despite the name, Type n Walk™ is useful while youre sitting or standing too. Use it anytime you would like to keep an eye on your surroundings while you type.

Pros and cons of Type n Walk app for iPhone and iPad
Type n Walk app good for
Pretty cool for driving hahah gotta make it compatible with landscape mode too.. Not bad tho
This app works very well and I really enjoy being able to see what I am no longer walking into. However, this is essentially useless when walking at night or in a dark room. I hope to see an option to toggle the flash on/off on the iPhone 4/4S.
Good job! :o)
This app functions well for typing long messages and emails while on the go. However, it would be nice to have it integrated in SMS settings.
I have this on my home screen because I use it all the time. The transparency comes in very handy in a variety of situations. The only minor hitch is selecting the recipient when texting. Improve that and I will give you 5 stars.
Usually when I type, I have to keep looking up. Now, I can see wherever I go!! This is handy dandy! I especially like how you can send it straight to Twitter! This is a smart idea!! Totally good app!! Definitely recommend!
Everyone here on campus uses this app. Im not kidding. Its perfect for a quick text when Im heading to my next class or were going to meet up somewhere. I dont email that much so I cant comment much about that feature but its there if you need it I guess. I mostly text and tweet and its perfect for that.
Some bad moments
I dont mind the copying and pasting so much. I just prefer to turn my iPhone on its side to use the expanded keyboard and this app does not support that function.
U cant type and look at the road and stuff because your focuses on typing!
I thought Id have a conversation on the transparent screen but you dont you have to individually send them which is such a pain I suggest fix that it dont buy the app
Do NOT get this app! It is a waste of time and money. It is falsely advertised and stupid. You have to go through to the app itself and cant see the previous conversation.
You type the text, THEN choose what u want it to be sent to or as: SMS,Facebook,Twitter Ect. THEN you choose the contact if its a SMS. So... overall pointless! Still a little cool to text with being able to see whats in front of you.
This app is very misleading.Works only within app.U cant run it in bbm,whats app,iMessage ,email,viber.
