Snapkeys World Record is an app that introduces users to another alternative to the standard QWERTY keyboard layout (dubbed 2i), but adds a twist to mobile typing. The app is not a keyboard replacement, but actually a typing game, challenging users' speed typing abilities using the app's unique keyboard system. Snapkeys World Record allows users to challenge each other (and the world record) for fastest typing on a mobile platform.

With Snapkeys World Record comes the introduction of Snapkeys invisible interface, which further minimizes the keyboard by only displaying the basic shapes shown above, in addition to the backspace and space keys.
