I bought Fleksy at the full price and think it is worth every cent. I can type as fast as a sighted person on my phone. On my iPad, I can have my fingers spread out like qwerty fashion and go really fast. I wish some smaller words would be ordered differently in the suggestions list (like but) but it's always there. I actually now choose to type on the screen instead of using my bluetooth keyboard. If people are having trouble with it, I suggest just trying to relax and not try to find the letters. Just tap away very roughly in the place you think the letter is, and enjoy it.
