Hi,
You can enter it manually, just hold your finger on the keyboard and after a
second you'll hear the letter your finger's on. Then just move your finger
around and touch type as you normally would. When you're done flick right
to add the space and your word will be spoken, and you can then flick up to
add it to the dictionary if you want to or just keep typing.

Subject: Re: Fleksy
Hello everyone,
Donna sort of brings up a point that would interest me. How do you actually
enter a word within Fleksy that isn't in its dictionary? Is there a way to
force the App to let you enter a word in the "usual way?" Although I write
lots of stuff on my iPhone in English, I sometimes need to enter names of
restaurants, etc., whose names are German.
Thanks and happy fleksing!
Mike

You know, it's hard to completely separate them. I find that I have to
retype things a lot, often the word I'm aiming for isn't in the
suggestions list. Which of course, makes the whole thing slower. And
when I go back and read the text, there often seem to be a lot of junk
characters mixed in. It may well be just that I need to put some time
into getting used to it, but unfortunately, time is one thing I don't have
a lot of right now, what with a recent move and a new job. I do
appreciate the list comments, though, since you all seem to be getting
good results, that speaks to the fact that it must be possible. :)
Take care,
Donna

Is it the accuracy of the words, or the speed that is giving you
problems?
I know for me it took some getting used to, to be fast with it.
You spend a few years listening for a key, and with this app, the key
is to quickly tap in the general direction of the key, and continue
on.
I still hesitate some when tiping, it's just habit.
To get the best results is to try to tap the keys as fast as you can,
and let Fleksy do it's work and guess the word. Of corse it's first
guess may not be right, but once you get the speed down and flicking
through the suggested words, I think you'll start to notice the apps
potintial.
Hope this helps.

Hey Brandon,
thanks for the tip - I did find the suggestions. though personally I'm
finding the app slow and not very accurate, I do assume there's a
learning
curve, and am intrigued by the results that others are reporting. I
think
I'll keep playing with it for a while, and see if I notice improvement
before making a final decision.
thanks again,
Donna

Just want to point out one more thing, in case you didn't know.
The great thing is that even if it doesn't guess the right word, you
can
flick down to get other suggestions. Unless the word isn't in its
built-in
dictionary, the word you want will most definitely be there.
That is why you can just wildly guess, touching somewhere in the
general
vicinity of the letter but not really carrying how close it is, because
that's enough to get the word to come up. Now I'm able to text just as
fast, I think, as a sighted user.
Did you read the full instructions? That may be useful.

In the paid version, you can use the text for texting, emails,

It does save a lot of time once you get used to it. My wife and I are
both now using it, and already our efficiency is probably a good 7-10
times faster.
I don't even try to get the right letter, just wild guesses, and it
gets
it right 90% of the time.

Hmm, interesting. What's the difference between the free and paid
versions? I realize that there may be a learning curve, bus so far
it
doesn't seem to me that this app saves any time at all.
Cheers,

No, the free version is only for testing. It's $4.99 for the full

I just got it, and love it. I just wish there were an easier way
to
reply to text messages or emails with it.

I just purchased it for $4.99. Yay! At least, that' what I
think. When I went through the in app purchase process it
asked
me if I was sure I wanted to buy it for $4.99. I was passing
this
along in case someone one was wondering if it is still $4.99
through the in app purchase.
