RE: Typing with Fleksy
Hi. Tap and hold on the Fleksy keyboard and slide your finger up until you pass the first row of letters and you will then be in the row of punctuation groups. It's located where you would normally expect to find numbers on a standard qwerty keyboard. Once in that row of punctuations and symbols, you can slide left or right to pick a group at which point you can then slide up or down to choose a symbol from that group. Honestly, it sounds way more complicated than it actually is. Once you try it you'll see it's quite easy and much better than the old symbols keyboard from past versions.

Re: Typing with Fleksy
Hi there. Try this: Press and hold anywhere on the keyboard. Move your finger to the top of the keyboard. You will hear some symbol keys. Each represents a symbol group. Choose the dollar symbol, for example. You can then swipe down to get other currencies. Similarly, if you choose the left parenthesis you can swipe down to get other types of brackets, and so on.

RE: Typing with Fleksy
Wow, thanks so much for your prompt reply! You guys are awesome at wanting to make it really usable for us. I must ask my other question I sent to support when the first version came out. I am writing an email. I write the email and want to go back and re-read. When I do by either putting it up to my ear or tapping 3 times on home, I find I want to re-word or fix a word or just put in another word way at the beginning of my email. Is there a way to do this in Fleksy? If not, when I get to the front screen and before I actually put it in an email is there a way to do this. Do I have to put it in an email and then flick up and down and use the Apple keyboard to correct? As there is no voice in Fleksy, as there is in Jaws, I sometimes put words in that are not correct tenses just because I am concentrating on keeping sentences going and forget what I was typing. This will come in time with use, but I can see a need for being able to correct directly in Fleksy.

RE: typing with fleksy
I have personally found that the combination of Fleksy with the tactile screen protector increases productivity, not decreases it. Because you already have a means of knowing exactly where the letters are in space on the keyboard, by touch, when you type with Fleksy using your tactile screen protector, you'll increase your chances of being able to quickly have words recognized. At least, this has been my own personal experience, and the types of customer feedback that I've received since the release of this app. Every user is going to have a different experience as is with *everything*, but that's the data we've gleaned from personal use as well as outside sources.

Re: typing with fleksy
Hi Chuck, Nice description of the placement of the keyboard in Fleksy. Inadvertently,you demonstrated one of Fleksy's strengths, to wit: you had to input the word fourth manually, this was not because Fleksy couldn't understand your typing, but because the word Fourth is actually spelled forth, unless my memory is playing me tricks!

RE: typing with fleksy
Hi Sandy, You may be the OCR Queen, but you are not the spelling queen unless they spell fourth differently in Ireland *smile*. 4th is indeed spelled the way Chuck spelled it, just like the word four with a th at the end. The word forth without the u of course exists as well - it's one of those fantastic examples of how difficult the English spelling actually is with all its rules and exceptions to the rules and just strange ways to spell something, e.g. who would ever think that beauty is spelled the way it is if duty sounds exactly the same and is spelled completely differently.

Re: typing with fleksy
Hi Sandy, LOL you are right. The only thing I am worse at than typing is spelling. Which is a challenge with Fleksy.

Inadvertently,you demonstrated one of Fleksy's strengths, to wit: you had to input the word fourth manually, this was not because Fleksy couldn't understand your typing, but because the word Fourth is actually spelled forth, unless my memory is playing me tricks!

Re: typing with fleksy
Hi Raul, I assume you are referring to my suggestions about a way to make a screen curtain while using Fleksy. First, I am curious, how many times have you had to have a sighted person use your phone? In the rare event that this would be necessary, you could peel off the screen protector or turn the screen brightness up. But considering that we are talking about someone who runs the screen curtian all the time, wouldn't that make the phone un-usable for sighted people? But as I understand it, this is all moot as the Fleksy developer is planning a fix to the screen curtain issue.

Re: typing with fleksy
Hi Chuck. In all fairness, you don't know me from Adam, so you really have no idea how often someone would use my phone other than me, sighted or otherwise. However since you did ask, my son who has vision, and my daughter who also has vision, use my phone from time to time to play games. My wife who is also sighted, sometimes uses my phone in the case that her own phone isn't around or nearby. So, why would I want to put on a screen protector which has been painted over, and in the end making my phone look rather nasty and not like an iPhone. Furthermore, if you peel off a screen protector enough times, the chances of getting it bent increase, and eventually make it unusable. However, as you said, the point is moot since the Fleksy developer is doing something in the next update regarding privacy. Cheers, and keep rocking on! -- Raul A.

Furthermore, if you peel off a screen protector enough times, the chances of getting it bent increase, and eventually make it unusable. However, as you said, the point is moot since the Fleksy developer is doing something in the next update regarding privacy. Cheers, and keep rocking on! -- Raul A.

First, I am curious, how many times have you had to have a sighted person use your phone? In the rare event that this would be necessary, you could peel off the screen protector or turn the screen brightness up. But considering that we are talking about someone who runs the screen curtian all the time, wouldn't that make the phone un-usable for sighted people? But as I understand it, this is all moot as the Fleksy developer is planning a fix to the screen curtain issue.

The Fleksy keyboard only has the twenty six letters of the alphabet. There are no shift, delete, space, or enter keys on it. The top row containing the letters q, w, e, r, t, y, i, o, and p is half way up the screen. The next row is about three fourths of an inch below the first line. And the last row is three fourths of an inch below the second row, or about one fourth of an inch above the home button. Try doing this. Touch the center of the screen and hold it their until the letter is spoken. Now slide your finger around to learn the approximate position of the letters. Once you get a general idea how the keyboard is laid out, you will start to type faster. This was typed

I've completely mastered it, and, the only thing we have to realize is that we must use grade one braille, and the app was made strictly according to Italian braille specifications which change how punctuation is entered.

Re: typing with fleksy
I am typing this with Fleksy. I have only had a few minutes to practice with it. So far so good. You have to have pretty good spatial orientation to use it easily, but with practice I am sure anyone can use it effectively.

Re: typing with fleksy
Hi Kim, Here something you may also want to try. I turned the screen brightness down to zero in settings. The screen gets very dark, but not completely black. Then I typed a few words in Fleksy. My wife who has 20 20 vision could not read the text from four feet away. At least it will keep people from reading over your shoulder while you are using Fleksy.

why can't there be a trial of the ap, I don't like the idea of spending 15 bucks on something that I might not like. I know, that's the risk I suppose, but it would be nice to have a ten day trial or something. Dave C.

Re: I got the Fleksy app and I'm having fun typing ... - from Fleksy
Don't have Fleksy here, but from the demonstrations I've heard, when you turn VO back on after typing, flick right and one of the buttons that appears is copy. Double tap that and your text is copied to the clipboard. Apparently everything is already selected when you put it in Fleksy.

Penny, If you copy, it's a case of tapping the Copy button in the menu then going to your email programme, finding the place where you need to inserrt the text you've written, turn the rotor to edit and select paste and you're done.

Re: Fast typing with Fleksy
Name a application that had a demo of it before you bought it. Usually it had limitations on the program but how or what type of restrictions could you put on this application to give a demo. Not only that but their is many pi podcast which show the functionality of the program. I based my decision on what I heard plus what I thought it could do for me. I love it for I can type ten times faster then I ever have before.

RE: Fast typing with Fleksy
Hi Christopher, I don't know if that is an Apple limitation, but there are no trial apps ever. Developers can make so-called Lite versions of their apps and many do this. The Lite version has limited functionality and typically is free. I agree, Fleksy could be offered as a light version maybe with a limitation to only allow for typing 100 characters or whatever and as you said, they could disable the email and SMS links since otherwise somebody could use the free version to type short text messages. Maybe this is something you could suggest to the developers. On the other hand of course there has been so much positive discussion that I think it's pretty much clear that the overwhelming response to Fleksy is positive. Take care, Sieghard -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Fast typing with Fleksy
Agreed, and the response on this list and the podcasts available are great, but I'd still like a chance to actually play with the typing technique myself first. I may end up buying it myself anyway, but if there had been a free version, I would have already just taken it for a spin.

Re: Fast typing with Fleksy
Hello all, Here are my impressions of Fleksy. As others have noted, its ability to accurately identify words is really quite incredible, and the answer to whether typing common words in Fleksy is faster than typing them using the default on-screen keyboard, is an unequivocal yes. It sometimes seems as though it's reading my mind, the accuracy is so good! If there were a couple shortcomings in this premium-priced app, you first have to realize that a premise of using the app correctly is that you know how to spell every word you are planning to type perfectly. There is no spell checker or autr-correct function at all. So if, say, you're trying to spell the word 'conscientious' but you make a trivial spelling error, the app may not guess the word at all. Also, it seems a bit odd to me that there is no way to capitalize words at will, especially proper names that you may add to the dictionary such as Viphone, or names of companies and organizations such as Simon Fraser University, or words which are sometimes capitalized but sometimes aren't such as Dad. I hope this is added as soon as possible because if you want to write professional messages you're going to probably have to do a little bit of editing once you've taken the Fleksy message where it needs to go. And maybe it's just habit, but I do wish there was a more convenient way of entering the spacebar rather than flicking right, as it does seem to be a little jarring to my typing flow. All in all, it's a brilliant concept and a great first version of a promising app. Grant -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

I'm sure I'll get faster with practice as typing with them is a new thing for me. I'm sure things will get better as I continue to use it. As I said using my thumbs is new for me as usually I use my index finger on my right hand and hold the phone in my left one.
