Hi again I don't bother with the AutoCorrect feature unless, like you said, it's the word I want. However, most of the time I don't even listen because it's faster just to keep going. Sincerely, Gigi Sent from my iPhone On May 26, 2014, at 7:17 PM, Jessica Moss junglebookfa...@gmail.com

One thing you can do is set shortcuts and type a little faster that way. On May 25, 2014, at 22:49, Katey Glass katey...@gmail.com wrote: I don't know how fast I am exactly. I know I'm slower than sighted ppl. As I slide my fingers all over the keyboard. This email was done on my iPad

Hello. I do use the typing regular keyboard on my iPhone. I do dictate an awful lot as well. And when I am at work, will use my Braille display as I cannot type on the keyboard as fast as I would like. However, for short messages, I can type relatively fast if I put my mind to it. On 26 May

When typing on the phone I take advantage of shortcuts and also autocorrect. For example, you never have to capitalize the first letter of a sentence or put in an apostrophe, the phone will do those things. I use a keyboard or my braille display for long typing or significant editing but I use

Hi there I tend to use dictation, and then go back and use the keyboard to correct. Of course I sometimes use myBraille display, but I usually use that for longer messages. It just takes practice. I was very frustrated when I first started. But now I do okay. I also tend to use touch typing

I can't figure out the auto-correct feature all that well, if it picks up the word right away, I'm fine with it, but if I need to scroll through the list, I'm out of luck, sense I have no idea how to find it, same with the mac, which is frustrating. On May 26, 2014, at 1:38 PM, Deb Lewis
