RE: Foreced Fleksy Upgrade?
Thanks for your comments Chuck and Chris. While I won't deny I can probably easily get used to the Fleksy changes, I really see the main issue I wanted to explorer as being the denial of choice with respect to an upgrade. I mean, the Fleksy developers don't have to provide any technical support for an older version if they choose not to so I'm at a loss why they would force a user to upgrade. I'll see what they say to my email support request.

Re: Foreced Fleksy Upgrade?
Hi Alan, Although the new version has an extra step for the favorites, I believe it is faster, at least for me, because the name of the contact is displayed so I do not have to wait while voice over reads the email address to me so I can figure out who is who. Now I can quickly flick through the list to find what I am looking for. Chuck (mobile) Pleez x cuze enny tie ping or spelin air ores.

Re: Foreced Fleksy Upgrade?
Alan, I upgrade regardless of new features or enhancements. I feel it's best to stay with the latest and greatest. Guess you'll have to do the same. You may not care for the changes at this time but bet you will in due course.

Foreced Fleksy Upgrade?
I use Fleksy version 1.7.2 on my iPhone 5 and chose not to upgrade to the recently released version 1.8 because I did not care for the changes to Favorites made by that version. Today, when I attempted to use Fleksy to type an email, I got a notification about an upgrade with enhancements which contained a single ok button to execute. There was no option to decline and launch the existing app. After executing ok, I was taken to the Apps Store upgrade Fleksy page where I chose not to upgrade. However, every time I try launching Fleksy, I'm presented again with the upgrade notice. Does anyone know how to avoid what seems to be a forced upgrade? Is this something others have seen before with other apps? I've written Fleksy Support asking about this but I wanted to get some thoughts from the wise folks on this list.
