Google tap allows you to input Morse Code into your smartphone instead of using the too-small keyboard. It also allows writing two different emails at once.

You'd have two morse keyboards and you can write both e-mails the same time, because you need just 2/3 fingers for one keyboard and you can't miss the keys because of there big size.
