The KALQ keyboard, (dubbed after the order the keys appear in the keyboard, analogous to QWERTY), is a keyboard layout that has been developed by researchers at the University of St Andrews, the Max Planck Institute for Informatics and Montana Tech as a split-screen keyboard for thumb-tyipng, which is claimed to allow a 34% increase in typing speeds for touchscreen users. KALQ was released as a free app, albeit a beta, for Android-based smartphones. Although the KALQ project received some buzz in tech media, as of early 2017, the latest public version is dated October 2013, and still labelled a beta.
