For the moment, I'musing standard typing. I'll switch to touch typing eventually, but for now I like to split-tap when I am sure I've got the letter I want. I'm not slow, I have a hearing loss, and I have like eight passwords that NEED to be entered correctly or else all sorts of cluster arrangements will occur. So, if I split tap on the More, numbers, button, I hear a faint click, but the keyboard is still the same. If I touch "more, numbers, then lift up, double tap and hold, I hear a different noise which is a three-tone noise, which means to me the keyboard has changed, and sure enough, it has. I'm not sure what I"m doing here that's nonstandard.
And, no, I'm sorry, but there are no other fingers accidentally touching the screen; this was the first habit I cured myself of a long time ago. No, I think perhaps there's some misinterpretation involved when the IOS says "Slide up or down to change the value," but Voiceover says "double tap to change the value." I'm wondering if this is a similar occurrence to when I power down the Ipad and VO says "slide to power off," but what is needed is a double-tap there. In the case of the sliding up or down, it's important if I want to slide my way through a message list, for example, and split-tap to select for deletion when I've pressed the edit button. Once I figure an efficient, fast way to sort through Mail, I'll be able to start using my pad for just about everything I use my laptop for. Already.
