    I think OP means that you can e.g. press the 1 button two times to type a B.

    A remote that could do this would be awesome. Using arrow keys to go through the letters is pain

      I’ve got this setup on my car stereo (android based): Cheap numpad from alibaba with mechanical keys (around 10 Euros) T9 keyboard app from fdroid. Types in addresses into comaps way faster and safer than the screen keyboard and can navigate my mp3 folders easily to play music.
