Microsoft Analog Keyboard for Android Wear. Is this the reason you needed to get a smartwatch?.

Microsoft Research have released a prototype of one of the strangest apps I can think you might need for your new Android Wear smart watch. The new Analog keyboard allows you to draw letters on your smart watch screen as a replacement for a traditional onscreen keyboard.

There’s a real need for a keyboard solution for smart watches. Voice input really isn’t for everyone, and even if you love it, not all environments suit voice input (try telling your wife you’ll be late whilst you’re in a business meeting). Other keyboard apps are out there, Minuum being one, but it’s a tricky nut to crack and the Microsoft offering does show a really different approach.

It’s available for download now and supports square and round Android Wear devices.
