I'm with you. I can't wait to check out the updated Fleksy. I will also
keep Fleksy Vo until I like the new Fleksy and I see improvements.

Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth!

The app is working very well for me. I think people just need to give it a
chance and not jump to conclusions. They have made the app accessible well
ahead of their projected time table. I will definitely be sticking with the
new version. It isn't perfect but it has come a long way and I know it will
only get better from here on in. I think the reason people are having issues
is because things are done differently in the new version. It'll just take
some getting used to.

I'm sorry but since I can't type a message with the Fleksy Keyboard app, this
appears to be nothing more than a not ready for prime time app. Whether the
menus are accessed from a menu line as opposed to the former two-finger swipe
up isn't really the issue. The app simply doesn't work so releasing a message
with the subject line of Fleksy Now Fully Accessible is more than a little
misleading. And the documentation still has the reference about accessing the
menu using the two-finger swipe up. I think it's clear why they seem to be a
few months ahead of when they thought the product would be ready because it's
not. I truly hope they will leave Fleksy VO untouched and available until they
come up with a product that meets their keyboard integration needs and does so
with VoiceOver running.

Exactly. Applevis has a blog detailing known bugs and updated features that you
should check out. Plus, their own blog said there were some things they were
still working on. No, the copy and clear and other options are not yet there,
that's part of the problem in this version. The sharing and settings options
are, though.

Guys, the updated app has just been released, and the team have not had enough
time to update the documentation. Give them time. The two-finger flick up no
longer works to bring up the menu.
Thanks,

I agree... This version of Fleksy doesn't play with voice over very well. It is
also sluggish and the accuracy seems to have decreased.
I prefer to lock Fleksy VO in landscape position so I can use my thumbs to
type, but I cannot find this option in the newer update.
It seems that the people at Fleksy have forgotten their original mission... To
bring a accessible keyboard to the visually impaired. As of late they have
changed their focus to supplying a keyboard to the masses. Too bad.
I will continue to use Fleksy VO until my iPhone will no longer work with it,
then I guess I'll go back to dictation.

Well, I'd be curious what others are finding with this latest version of Fleksy
because I'm certainly not finding it fully accessible. I've left the Fleksy
keyboard app on my phone and have been updating it each time a new version has
been released. I couldn't type with those versions with VoiceOver going and I
also can't with this latest version. I'm having to type this message using
Fleksy VO. When I upgraded and launched this latest Fleksy keyboard version,
the text from the last thing I had written with it was on the screen and I was
unable to delete it or to get to the Fleksy menu normally accessed by swiping
up with two fingers. The app still appears to have bugs for those of us using
VoiceOver but I'm curious if others are having the problems I am. I will be
reporting them to Fleksy support.

Moving forward, Fleksy VO will be discontinued. It was only ever meant to be a
stopgap measure while full accessibility was worked into the revamped Fleksy
app. Right now there are few differences, but in the future, Fleksy will be
updated and supported while Fleksy Vo will not be.

Personally, I am pretty happy with Fleksy VO, and unless Fleksy offers some
extreme improvement, I'll probably stay with it.

Hi all,
Sorry if this is a repeat post, but earlier today, Fleksy announced that their
main app is accessible. There are still some VO issues they are working on, but
they say that, overall, VO users can use the regular app and not need Fleksy VO
anymore. This is way ahead of their projected six month deadline, so good for
them for getting this done so quickly. Best of all, the accessibility carries
over to their SDK, so apps that incorporate Fleksy will have accessible typing
as well, once they update to the latest version. Of course, apps that come
onboard after today will already have the accessibility.
