Easy-to-read buttons and effortless functionality make Click-N-Type handy for anyone who can't use a traditional keyboard. You just place the cursor in any application and start clicking. If you can't even use a pointing device, Scan Mode lets you type by pressing one button. The program worked flawlessly with Windows applications and Web pages in our test. The software's buffer/clipboard tool provides an easy workaround, should any problems arise. With a bit of practice, innovative tools such as Word Prediction and Speed Keyboard offer serious time savings. 

Features Click-N-Type allows each user to access it without needing special administrative rights. This feature is ideal for computers shared by multiple users. Each person can customize their own word lists that help predict text and save frequently used words. Initially, a main user sets up these lists, but afterward, everyone can tailor them to their preferences.

Users have the freedom to select their preferred keyboard layouts and languages, which enhances the keyboard's versatility across different user settings. Another helpful feature is the macro keys, where users can create shortcuts for actions they perform often. These shortcut keys light up to remind users of their functions, including sticky keys that make certain shortcuts like opening files or minimizing windows simpler.

Accessibility and Functionality The design of Click-N-Type focuses on flexibility and ease of use. Users can resize the keyboard by simply dragging its corners, making the keys and font bigger. While this resizing helps make the keyboard more visible and easier to use, the maximum font size may still be small for some users.

The keyboard includes a dwell delay feature that lets users select keys by hovering the mouse over them for a set time. This is especially useful for users with limited motor control, as it reduces the need for precise clicking. Additionally, Click-N-Type can be configured to work with various input methods, including mouse buttons or external switches, which helps accommodate different physical abilities.

Bottom Line

Although additional features such as a built-in spelling checker would be helpful, Click-N-Type delivers a simple, solid keyboard alternative with plenty of unique functionality.
