I’ve noticed this when using Flicktype classic. Now, I need to flick in the app a couple times, turn the rotor to find direct touch, flick that on, then I can use Flicktype like normal. Kind of a pain. *Shrugs… Traci > On Oct 19, 2020, at 12:08 PM, Wayne Merritt wrote: > > I u

Hi Richard, I don't know. It used to be that you double-tapped in an area that had Direct Touch to activate it and touched elsewhere to resume using VoiceOver. I haven't used an app that has Direct Touch in a while, so I'm not sure how the rotor plays into it. Best, Anna > On Oct 19, 2

Hi, Direct Touch makes it so you can touch parts of an app without doing VoiceOver gestures, so you can do things like play instruments in Garage Band without turning off VoiceOver. I hope that's of some help. Best, Anna > On Oct 19, 2020, at 10:39 AM, 'Kimberly Samco' via VIPhone >

OK, some have claimed they can still use Direct Touch Typing in iOS 8.2. I don't think so. I have tested it on both a 5s and a 6 and it simply behaves the same as standard typing, meaning you have to double tap each letter. I've tried it when replying to an Email, composing an Email, entering
