Re: Typing On The IPhone's On-Screen Keyboard
Desi, I am not the best typist but have found the touch typing mdoe is much more efficient and I like it for that reason. I do nothing special, either hold the phone in left hand or put it on the table. I will at osme point use my braille display when I want to do a lot of typing for that will be even more efficient. Something that may work well also would be to put the phone in landscape mode so the keys are not so close together. Quote of the nanosecond . . .

Re: Typing On The IPhone's On-Screen Keyboard
I feel completely comfortable typing on my iPod with the onscreen keyboard. I don't think it's a practical way to do a lot of typing, as in editing documents, at least not for me. it will always be significantly slower than a keyboard. For most everyday uses, such as entering passwords and typing messages, it works just fine for me. I use touch typing mode. When I do a lot of editing, I use my Braille display keyboard. If I didn't have a braille display, I'd get a Bluetooth keyboard. Teresa On the other hand, there are different fingers.

Re: Typing On The IPhone's On-Screen Keyboard
I must be in the minority, I do have a small bluetooth keyboard I got from the AT Guys last summer at the NFB convention, and occasionally use Fleksy and dictation, but for the most part I use the on screen Keyboard in "normal" mode. That is I place my pointer finger on the letter I want to type and then use a split tap with my second finger to place the letter in my text or what ever I'm typing.

Re: Typing On The IPhone's On-Screen Keyboard
I prefer the iPhone's keyboard to that of the iPad, just because the keyboard on the pad is more spread out. I use my right ;index and middle finger, depending on which side of the keyboard the next letter or symbol will be located. I am not as fast as my sighted wife, AMy Three Deer, but I'm good enough that I can type out middle-length E-mails or notes or whatever. I use Dictation for anything very complicated, though. Interestingly, for those of you who may be using hearing aids with a Bluetooth connection to a streaming device, such as the Phonak Com Pilot ((tm)) and accompanying hearing aids, the newest generation of Com Pilot streamer is smart enough to recognize that it's connecting to "Mark's iPhone," and when I use dictation, Voiceover uses the channel usually used for receiving incoming phone calls. I find that the whole process of typing feedback over the BT connection is much faster when this secondary channel is utilized, but it can be slow if you're using the streamer in a music mode. The tech really has come a long way. * Mark BurningHawk Baxter * AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 * MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com * My home page: * http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Typing On The IPhone's On-Screen Keyboard
Hello. I do use the typing regular keyboard on my iPhone. I do dictate an awful lot as well. And when I am at work, will use my Braille display as I cannot type on the keyboard as fast as I would like. However, for short messages, I can type relatively fast if I put my mind to it. > On 26 May 2014, at 04:12 pm, Devin Prater wrote: > > One thing you can do is set shortcuts and type a little faster that way. > >> On May 25, 2014, at 22:49, Katey Glass wrote: >> >> I don't know how fast I am exactly.

Re: Typing On The IPhone's On-Screen Keyboard
When typing on the phone I take advantage of shortcuts and also autocorrect. For example, you never have to capitalize the first letter of a sentence or put in an apostrophe, the phone will do those things. I use a keyboard or my braille display for long typing or significant editing but I use the phone screen a surprising amount. if you keep practicing you'll get good speed and accuracy.

Re: Typing On The IPhone's On-Screen Keyboard
Hi there I tend to use dictation, and then go back and use the keyboard to correct. Of course I sometimes use myBraille display, but I usually use that for longer messages. It just takes practice. I was very frustrated when I first started. But now I do okay. I also tend to use touch typing most of the time when I'm using the keyboard.

Re: Typing On The IPhone's On-Screen Keyboard
I can't figure out the auto-correct feature all that well, if it picks up the word right away, I'm fine with it, but if I need to scroll through the list, I'm out of luck, sense I have no idea how to find it, same with the mac, which is frustrating.

Re: Typing On The IPhone's On-Screen Keyboard
Hi again I don't bother with the AutoCorrect feature unless, like you said, it's the word I want. However, most of the time I don't even listen because it's faster just to keep going.
