Maybe it is because I type all day long anyway but I cannot get the hang of typing with thumbs. just does not work for me unless I do it by accident and that is so easy on the iPad mini.

I use Fleksy for all my typing, including this post. I have it locked in landscape mode, and balance the phone on the fingers of both hands and type with my thumbs. Works for me! BTW I agree... If you are having finger pain then you are probably using way too much pressure. Chuck (mobile) Pleez x cuze enny tie ping or spelin air ores.

You just need to barely touch the screen for your commands to register. Practice barely touching the display and two things will happen. First, your finger will stop hurting. Second, your commands will actually function without any errors. If you hear your finger tapping the display, you are most likely tapping too hard. >> >> I use my iPhone for everything.
