Re: The old Flexy keyboard
I remember using Fleksy when I bought my first iPhone in 2012. I stopped using it when it became less accessible. FlickType is an amazing keyboard.

RE: The old Flexy keyboard
When Fleksy first came out Kosta was part of the development team and it started out just as Flicktype as a Voiceover keyboard. However, over time it changed a lot, I think first it was a paid app for $14.99 or something like that, then later they dropped the price to $4.99 and eventually (and today) it's free. This of course upset a lot of people since in the blind community it appears that many don't understand simple economics and marketing, i.e. things change, prices change and that is just how it is. If you buy an Instant Pot for $149 at Best Buy and then a few weeks later the item goes on sale for $99 and a week later it again goes up to $149 then that is how it is. Anyhow, Fleksy is still around, it has all sorts of fancy features and essentially it works similarly to Flicktype in terms of predicting what you want to type by the pattern, but it's not nearly as accessible and easy to use any more as Flicktype is. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Gordon Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2018 7:55 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: The old Flexy keyboard So I'm a flick type user and absolutely love how it works.

Hi Donald, Do you tap on search in the bottom right corner of the keyboard after you enter your search term? Often an app won't show up in the search suggestions unless you do this. If I just type Fleksy into the search field of the app store on my iPhone and tap on the search button the first result is Fleksy and the second is Fleksy VO.

Flexy--Unable to get past the update alert message
Hi, all! I have that same problem with my flexy; it asks me to update it, but then when I click on that, it goes to the app-store, where the only choice I can pick is to open it, and then when I click the open button, it just brings me back to that same alert. Speaking of things you can't get past, I've noticed that when you use DropBox on the iPad, (when you first install it, at least), it brings you to the welcome page, and there's something that says to learn more swipe, and if you already have an account sign in, but when you double-tap it, it does absolutely nothing, and I haven't found anything you can do about it, except get sighted help, turn VoiceOver off, and get them to click on the sign in thing, and then turn VoiceOver back on, and then it'll let you go to the sign in page where you type in your email and password and can sign in like normal. Also, while you're in DropBox at that welcome page, you cannot click the home-button three times to turn voiceOver off; you have to either go to the home-screen, turn voiceover off there and get the sighted person to access Dropbox and get you to the sign-in page, or else hold down the home-button and tell seri to turn voiceOver off, get the sighted person to get you to the sign in page, and then tell seri to turn voiceover back on; either way, it's a huge hassle. I've actually gotten a sighted person to watch me figure it out, and she could see the sign-in page on DropBox there, but there was no way for me to get to it with voiceover on my own. Anyhow, I hope there are some DropBox people on this list because I think this should be fixed; everything else works fine on Dropbox. Also, this is with the latest iPad, so I don't know what it does with my iPhone four. I might try it just to see what happens; I think I remember trying it before, and I never had problems with it on the iPhone 4. Does anyone else have this problem? God Bless!!!

But using Flexie simply does not produce the words I want. And I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. If I could, I wouldn’t do it! By contrast, I love Braille touch and others hate it.

Re: flexy
Personally, I much prefer new swipe up gesture. It is much easier to do than the awkward way of getting into the menus before and I put far fewer eronious letters in this way.

Re: flexy
I also prefer the new slide up gesture as I think it works faster and more reliable. I don't have problems with entering erroneous characters in the process. Even if you do, what is the worst that happens? you have to just delete them from the end after you get it into whatever you are putting it into. Oh no!

How to write don't using flexy? and other questions
dear all. How do you write don't or other words with apostrophe sign such as what's that? Secondly, What is the best way of sending emails using this program? I once tried by typing some text and choosing email from the menu. What I could understand was that the text I typed in flexie was put in the subject line. In the box for message body, I could hear type with Flexy but did not know how to use that feature. So your suggestions for using this program for sending emails are required.

Re: How to write don't using flexy? and other questions
Hi, To type contractions like done, or can't, just type them in. The word be typed with the apostrophe. If it doesn't show up as the first word do a one finger swipe down to go through the selections. To type a an email, type your subject then do a two finger swipe down to add a line and start typing your message body. When you have finished what you want to email, do a two finger swipe up to enter the menu. Now select email. You can now do any corrections and fill in the to field with the iphones normal keyboard and send your email. Chuck (mobile) Pleez x cuze any tie ping or spelin airors.

Re: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
Debbi, I wonder if you aren't trying too hard for accuracy when you type with fleksy. That was my problem when I first got the app and it still happens occasionally when I think too hard about where I'm tapping on the screen. Try simple sentences at first for practice. Type quickly not waiting to hear the letters as you go. And don't get discouraged. Eventually you'll get it and when you do I think you will love this app. Kimber On 8/20/12, Debbi Williamson debbi...@atlanticbb.net wrote: I wish I could get the hang of Fleksy.

Re: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
Hi, This is one of many reasons why i never ever ever will get Fleksy. What would i want it for when there's an adequate keyboard already present and one that can adapt to the situations, so if there's an email, to type the adress, there will pop up a keyboard with relevant signs already in place. I know i'm politically incorrect but i say it anyway, why do i want a special solution because i'm blind? And before anyone says it, it's not the apps themselves i'm afraid of, they're there in the app store for grabbing, if you want 'em get 'em, what i'm afraid of is the demand it brings. When we get enough special solutions to do all kinds of things for us, we won't ever want to investigate what's already in the store, because it doesn't do what the blind require, and all of a sudden we're back in the hands of Freedom Science fiction, GW Micro, Sendero and the other companies who sell badly programmed solutions for a humongous price, and that's what i wanted to avoid when i first got the IPhone.

RE: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
Hi, The other thing that hangs up some folks trying to use Fleksy for the first time is the tendency to hold your finger on the letter you are aiming for. This is natural if you have been used to touch typing since you really learn to wait for that verbal VO confirmation. But with Fleksy, the final decision is made based on the pattern you type so waiting for a response from the iPhone may actually be getting in the way of the logic Fleksy is trying to use.

Re: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
Hi, for what it's worth, I'm not using Fleksy as much as I thought I would. Don't get me wrong, I still think it's a neat program for those who will use it to its advantages. However so far I haven't experienced a significant increase in typing speed. I've even made sure to retrain my muscle memory to just tap quickly rather than tap and hold a bit to hear the letter spoken that I want, but still no go. If anyone is having trouble, all I can do is recommend more practice. Cheers. -- Raul A.

Re: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
I guess I'm just a lot more pragmatic. I'm going to use whatever tools make my life easier and make me more productive. I wouldn't have been employed the last 20 plus years without products like JAWS. I doubt we'd even have the accessibility on mainstream products today like we do on the iPhone without some of the blindness only products that preceded it, like Outspoken, the Braille 'n' Speak and so on. Furthermore, I think the strides we've made in getting access to mainstream applications isn't going to be derailed by the occasional innovative app that some blind person or someone who is trying to help the blind iPhone user drops into the App Store. Since I can't predict the future, I'm also not going to make any universal statements like I'll never use a particular product or an app. Didn't I see someone say recently they'd never use a Kindle because they needed sighted assistance to turn on speech when reading a book or wouldn't get an Android phone because you needed sighted assistance to install and configure a screen reader? What are these people left to do now that neither one of these statements are true? What if Fleksy catches on in the sighted community or gets incorporated into IOS? I'm all for people taking a political stand and choosing to use or not to use an app for any reason whatsoever. That's why we have so much choice and have so many apps in the App Store. I'm just providing a different opinion. I hope people feel it's perfectly OK to use or not to use Fleksy or any other app out there.

RE: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
I applaud anyone who is blind and can type just as fast on the built in keyboard as they can with Fleksy! You are much better than me! I for one and very gracious to Flexsy for developing this wonderful typing app. Before I wouldn't even use the email app on my IPhone due to it just took me to long to type an email with more than a few words in it and I am pretty good with the built in keyboard. Now, I can type almost as fast as my sighted family members and I use the email app now on a regular bases. The only thing that would make Flexsy even better is that if it could be built into the IOS. Thank you Fleksy team, you rock!!

Hallo Krister, I don't generally join in these debates about specially generated apps etc, but in the case of Fleksy, I have been tempted. The simple fact is that the way Fleksy works, it is equally valuable to sighted typists. For example, my partner can type about ten times faster using Fleksy as opposed to the built in keyboard. Plus, many people find their fingers too large to safely hit the right key. Fleksy makes this unimportant. So, I suppose I am saying that, for once, the cart has come before the horse and that something developed with the VIP community in mind, might actually find a much greater mainstream market. I think we may well see Fleksy being bought by Apple for inclusion into its IOS. Happy tapping, Sandy.

Re: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
Hi Richard, I had a bit of a problem with typing accuracy with Fleksy when I started out. First off, let me ask you. How fast are you typing with Fleksy? You don't have to answer me. Just think about it. Sometimes I find that I get some words consistently right and other words consistently wrong. When I find one of these words, I stop what I'm doing and practice typing out that word. Sometimes I find I just need to be a little less exaggerated when I type that word. Or I'll slow gown typing when I get to that word. My advice to you is to open Fleksy when you have some time and practice. Try bigger words first. Delightful. Practices. Exaggerate. Simplified. Mastery. Geography. These are just some examples. As you get better with these words, try typing smaller sentences. Can I do that? How is the weather? Type more slowly than you were typing before, since you'll be dealing with smaller words which take more accuracy to get. Sometimes typing just a little bit slower can make all the difference Hope that helps, rose Sent from my iPhone On Aug 21, 2012, at 7:57 AM, Richard Ring richr...@gmail.com wrote: The thing is, it never got anything I tried to type correct, so for me, it's just easier to type.

Re: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
I find myself using Fleksy often. It is just forming a new habit. I have the app on my home screen and I tap it open before sending a message or status update. I want to practice more before composing a long email. The one thing I'm struggling with is reviewing and editing a large amount of text. For the person asking about smile wink. If you hold your finger on the keyboard and move up towards the number row, you'll find the row of symbols. Find the colon, above the I, I believe, then lift your finger to type the colon. If you wanted the semicolon for a wink, you'll need to flick down. Repeat the process to find the parenthesis. Lol, remember the difference between left and right for the smile or frown. Hope that helps. I don't always type my emoticons via Fleksy, but it is cool I know how to. ;) I sometimes find myself typing the message via fleksy, then when I'm in the iMessage window I use the emoji keyboard if I want to.

Hallo Krister, I don't generally join in these debates about specially generated apps etc, but in the case of Fleksy, I have been tempted. The simple fact is that the way Fleksy works, it is equally valuable to sighted typists. For example, my partner can type about ten times faster using Fleksy as opposed to the built in keyboard. Plus, many people find their fingers too large to safely hit the right key. Fleksy makes this unimportant. So, I suppose I am saying that, for once, the cart has come before the horse and that something developed with the VIP community in mind, might actually find a much greater mainstream market. I think we may well see Fleksy being bought by Apple for inclusion into its IOS. Happy tapping, Sandy. Sent from my iPhone On 21 Aug 2012, at 12:16
RE: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
Hi, I found it took me a while to get used to it. I am much faster than I was before I had fleksy but do find I quite often don't get the word I want first time and have to go down the suggestions list. I think I find the keyboard easier in landscape mode, just seems to work better for me.

Hello. At one time, I had the same problem you are currently having. Here are a few tips: 1. Know the qwerty keyboard. Before using Fleksy, you should have a good mental picture of where everything is on the qwerty keyboard. 2. Type with your index fingers. It does not work very well to type exactly like you would on a qwerty keyboard. I have found that the most productive and accurate way for me to use fleksy is to type with my index fingers. hth Josh - Original Message - From: Debbi Williamson debbi...@atlanticbb.net To: viphone@googlegroups.com Date sent: Mon, 20 Aug 2012 21:04:14 -0400 Subject: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.

Hi Krister, I understand the points you are making but do feel there is a place for both mainstream and specialist apps. I agree all IPhone users need to get to grips with the standard keyboard but honestly feel if a specialist app can massively increase your productivity then that can't be a bad thing.

Re: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
In my experience with this app, I've found Rose is right on the money with her excellent advice. Establishing a good rhythm was crucial to my breakthrough with Fleksy. Go too slowly and you're inclined to confuse it. Go too fast and taps won't register properly. Getting into a good groove enabled me to figure out how forceful the program needed my taps to be. Once I figured out what it needed, I could then pick up my own pace without loss of productivity. I also think I had an advantage due to the fact that I do all my typing with my thumbs (a holdover from the old Nokia phone days). A friend of mine was having great difficulty with Fleksy as he typed with a sort of hunt-and-peck approach involving his index fingers. Once I had him hold the phone in portrait position and do nice firm taps with his thumbs, the breakthrough was almost instantaneous. Like Rose and me, I believe he found the larger words easier to master first. I hope this helps Debbie and all others struggling to come to grips with this app. For those in search of a way to boost your typing speed, it really is tremendously innovative. For those who aren't on board with Fleksy for either ideological or practical reasons, more power to you. :) All the best, Michelle On 8/21/12, Louise Redsull louisereds...@googlemail.com wrote: Hi Krister, I understand the points you are making but do feel there is a place for both mainstream and specialist apps.

Re: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
I'm not a big fan of the term blind Ghetto. With the trouble blind people have finding employment, I don't think we should use disparaging terms to label products and applications that could make people more competitive in the market place. Which is more ghetto like, being unemployed or under employed or using an product or application that allows you to compete with our sighted peers? Don't get me wrong. I'm absolutely all for incorporating accessibility into main stream products and being able to use off the shelf products. They're generally cheaper and usually have more features in a more timely fashion. This doesn't mean that we're to the point though where a product or application designed with the blind in mind still isn't needed to fill the gap between the accessibility we have with a main stream product and the ease of use a blind user needs. I also don't think it's an either or situation. I think we can push for greater and greater accessibility in mainstream products while still taking advantage of products and applications developed with the blind in mind. If this weren't the case, we wouldn't be in the situation we're in now where we're buying off the shelf PC's and cell phones. I can only think of a handful of apps on the iPhone that we talk about on this list that were developed for the blind, so I think it's a bit of an exaggeration to say things like here we are, demanding more and more specialist products and yet another device full of special apps.

re: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
Hello. At one time, I had the same problem you are currently having. Here are a few tips: 1. Know the qwerty keyboard. Before using Fleksy, you should have a good mental picture of where everything is on the qwerty keyboard. 2. Type with your index fingers. It does not work very well to type exactly like you would on a qwerty keyboard. I have found that the most productive and accurate way for me to use fleksy is to type with my index fingers. hth Josh - Original Message - From: Debbi Williamson debbi...@atlanticbb.net To: viphone@googlegroups.com Date sent: Mon, 20 Aug 2012 21:04:14 -0400 Subject: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.

flexy and keyboard shortcuts
Hi all, I think I'm going to purchase this app. :) I have a question though. I have some keyboard shortcuts entered into my iPhone. I use these quite a bit, especially when texting. I was just wondering if flexy ignores them. I'm assuming they do since they are not in the dictionary. I was just curious. This is not a make or break for me. I just wanted to know how that would play out. Thanks, Christina C. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Thoughts on Flexy being integrated as a keyboard option on IOS
Hmmm, I don't personally like a solution that would require a jail break. However, you bring up a thought for me. Flexy has something on their instructions page describing something about offering their keyboard to developers to use within their app. So, maybe there is a developer out there that might have an accessible messaging/texting app where the flexy keyboard can be used. That's just a thought. Maybe I completely misunderstood that portion of the flexy instructions though. LOL! Things tend to go way over my head.

Re: Using Flexy
Hi reggie all I do is as follows. First I type out my message and if I want to respond to a particular message I will just copy it and paste it in and click on send. However if I want to create a email brand new I type out the message and then click on the favorite of this group and the message it ready to be sent so all I do is click send. If you do not see send that would mean the groups email address as you typed it May be wrong. I have no problem sending emails now. I love this program.

RE: Thoughts on Flexy being integrated as a keyboard option on IOS
Hi, I totally understand what you're saying. However, I'm not advocating not to fight for apple to integrate other keyboards into the IOS. However, if they are not going to do that I don't see an issue in someone creating a work around as that's all most jailbreak tweaks are. It's up to you as a user if you want to use it or not but it would be better than having nothing at all.

I don't know how jailbreaking is seen in the scandinavian countries, but i for one don't want to jailbreak my iphone despite all the nifty features i could get by doing so. I don't think it's worth the risk if something breaks...

Re: Thoughts on Flexy being integrated as a keyboard option on IOS
Glad the speed dots screen protector works for you. Maybe it didn't work for me because I used the beginner protector. I don't know. Either way, it didn't work for me.
