I don't understand your question. There's nothing wrong with choosing to
use the virtual keyboard and not wanting to carry around extra
equipment. There's also nothing wrong with someone wanting to use a
bluetooth keyboard. We have choices, and there's nothing wrong when
someone chooses to take advantage of their choices.
Also, using a bluetooth keyboard doesn't mean someone isn't using or
isn't proficient with the virtual keyboard. I primarily use the virtual
keyboard, but I do have a bluetooth keyboard when I'm using my iPhone as
a laptop replacement, such as when I'm travelling.

Your reasoning isn't flawed at all. I use a Bluetooth keyboard because
I'm faster at it than using the iOS keyboard, and Fleksy often reverted
to typing exactly where I touched, which means it was garbage being
typed. So I deleted that, because having to restart voiceover whenever
that happened, whih was often for me, was a real pain. Braille screen
input, however amazing, means that I'd have to turn my device to
landscape mode, type, correct any mistakes, twist the rotor, or do the
"back" gesture, and find the send button or whatever. With a keyboard, I
can just navigate, using the keyboard, to the place where I want to
type, type, and if in messenger, messages, Kik, Whatsapp, and countless
other apps, just press enter to send. If I'm in outlook Mobile, I'd
press command+enter to automatically send a message. Other keyboard
shortcuts like that work too, in other apps. Yes, I have to take two
devices, but no, it's not that much worse than taking an iPhone and a
charger, or an iPhone and a braille display, or a braille display and
its chargers, or an iPhone and a purse.

Hi,
This is *not* critizism even though it might seem so. I merely want to test
my opinion in a matter where i more or less have been accused of being wrong.
You see, i want those i tell and sometimes teach about the iDevices to know
their device thoroughly so that they don’t get stuck somewhere if things happen
and so that they themselves can make an informed choice about for example what
input method to use and so i have said that if you want an iPhone you’ll have
to learn and know about the virtual keyboard before you get to decide if you
want to use it or not.
I for example am not using a physical bluetooth keyboard although i have a
little cute one sitting around here. Now i’m exclusively using Fleksy for my
typing needs, and sometimes when i’m in a hurry to make a calendar appointment
for example i use Siri and then go in and edit the calendar entry afterwards
but before i used Fleksy i used the stock iOs keyboard.
I have chosen to do this because i don’t want to carry many gadgets with me
all the time, but those are my choices, so please tell me what in my opinion is
wrong because i am apparently so dence i can’t understand it. What in my
reasoning is flawed?
