We present a new ambiguous keyboard layout for smartwatches named ${T18}$. As the name implies, it is composed of 18 keys, and for this reason a key may correspond to more than one character. In those cases, the system chooses one of the characters based on a dictionary. The ${T18}$ keyboard layout is inspired by ${T9}$, with the main differences being that ${T18}$ has a greater number of keys and they are arranged in a QWERTY layout. The method was compared to Optimal-T9, an improvement of the original ${T9}$ for smartwatches. The experiment showed a 39% advantage in text entry speed in favor of ${T18}$. In particular, participants typed at 15.7 wpm with ${T18}$ and at 11.3 wpm with Optimal-T9.
