Hi nowTV

 

Can you make the search keyboard in the now TV app QWERTY format instead of alphabetical I believe this would make it easier/quicker to input searches as it should result in less keypresses. People are also used to having keyboards in QWERTY format on the devices they use day-to-day.

 

I believe this idea would be suitable for all devices

It is somewhat inconsistent that the sign-in keyboard is QWERTY but the search keyboard is ABC.

 

I guess ABC is more suitable for a grid layout and so creates a bit more room for the search results.

Hi DarylM

 

This idea is old and has probably been rejected because other apps that use the Now TV box/Roku also use the ABC search pad, so a QWERTY search pad would be out of step and/or incompatible with everything else.

 

I would much prefer if it was possible to connect a small USB keyboard to the Black Now TV box, for that a keyboard app/driver would be required.  Again, which may not be logistically feasible.
