Re: new keyboard behaviour
Hi. I also really like the new keyboard in iOS 6. It especially makes writing passwords that have a mixture of letters and numbers lots easier, grin. It took a couple of tries for me to initially adjust my thinking, but I think my typing is a little faster with the built-in iOS keyboard than before the update.

Re: new keyboard behaviour
Hi. I also like this new keyboard behavior. I'm glad that it pretty much does the same thing as Fleksy where you just tap on a letter and it types it. So with that being said, I don't see the point of having the app if the keyboard does what we've been wanting it to do all this time. My update was pretty successful, got an error message about it failing to install the update for some reason though. At least it worked the second time. I'm just having trouble with the App store now. How do you change pages if swiping left or right doesn't work?

RE: new keyboard behaviour
Hi Neil, I just discovered the same thing regarding the delete key. I wanted to delete the entire label in the edit field of the custom label and I touched the delete key which deleted a letter, but holding on it did not delete the rest rapidly as it used to do. However, as I was writing this to commiserate, the solution came to me and I just tried it and it works fine. It's really simple because it's the same gesture than before. That means before you had to either double tap or split tap the delete key to delete and if you did that and held it would continue to delete quickly. Now find the delete key, once you lift up a letter is deleted. Now focus is on the delete key and you can simply double tap and hold and it will delete very fast as long as you keep holding your finger on the screen. This came to me because I was wondering how I can turn on caps lock since now a single touch of the Shift key activates it where before a double tap did and a triple tap turned on Caps Lock. So I touched the shift key and then did a triple tap and that still turns on caps lock except that now to turn it off you only have to touch it once. I hope I am making sense here, but this I think is actually a good improvement. Regards, Sieghard -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.

Re: new keyboard behaviour
Hi, you can do a double-tap and hold somewhere other than the delete key and then touch and hold the delete key and this should work. -- Raul A.

new keyboard behaviour
How is everyone finding the new keyboard behaviour when using touch typing? I do not mind it for the caps lock, or more buttons for getting to the numbers, but, it seems to be now very difficult to use the delete key. especially as I used to like to press and hold delete if deleting a lot of text. this seems now to be very hap hazard. others thoughts? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
