Yes, I realize that's why it's asking me. But I'm wondering why they introduced that and it didn't used to work that way years ago. Yeah I'll try and spell it out more, but my experience lately is that even that doesn't work. But I'll try again. Try try again until you lose all patients altogether. Most people who see me work on my phone say they would never have the patience to do to get to the bottom of things like I do. I am sure that all of us differ in the things we are willing to tolerate and how quickly we lose patience. Another issue that has not yet been resolved is how to get rid of the pitch when I first touch a character. Itpronounces them where it sounds like it's a capital letter but when I activate that letter with the double tap, I'm not using slide to type, it then sounds normal and doesn't pronounce it with that high-pitched capitalization type sound. Trying to figure out how to set the toneall globally. All the keyboard sounds. i use the voice over feedback religiously, andit always is a bit disconcerting and throws me off when that high pitch sound reads that letter is if it's a capital. Got to get rid of that.
