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.
