Hello, I am migrating from an old iPhone 5S to a new iPhone 8. I have them both at IOS 12.4 and have migrated all data and Apps from the 5S to the 8. Note that all non standard Apps are in iCloud on the 8.
My first problem is data entry on the 8 using the on screen keyboard. On the 5S I use VO touch typing so that I can slide my finger to the desired character and lift my finger to enter it On the 5S. This also worked for entering the iPhone pass code on the 5S. So on the 8 I also set up VO touch typing and also turned off 3D touch. On the 8 the touch typing seems to work most times but it does not work for entering the iPhone pass code or for entering Apple ID 2 factor verification codes. For entering the iPhone passcode on the 8 I seem to have to double tap the desired numbers which is difficult to do accurately using VO. I am not sure how I am supposed to enter Apple ID verification code on the 8. My second and more major problem is that due to the above I kept entering the Apple ID 2 factor verification code wrong and now get error messages to the effect that I have tried too many verification codes. How do I resolve that???? The iPhone 8 on screen keyboard seems much more error prone than the 5S on screen keyboard. Do you have any tips on how to best use the iPhone 8 on screen keyboard with VO?
