RE: fleksy - typing tips
Just touch the letter you want to capitalize until you hear it. Raise your finger and then swipe up.

Re: fleksy - typing tips
I just started using fleksy and I am quite impressed with it. I was waiting for them to make it so you didn't have to keep turning voiceover off and on and pressing the home button at least 6 times or maybe a lot more per use of fleksy. I was waiting for that improvement especially after I knew it was coming. What a cool app!

fleksy - typing tips
Hello, 've recently downloaded the trial version and am experimenting with various approaches for typing. I type with a single finger when not in fleksy, but there is probably a more efficient technique when using fleksy. Two thumbs are a possibility, but you would lose time when reversing your hand to flick with the index finger. Any ideas welcome.

RE: fleksy - typing tips
Hi, If I have the phone in portrait position, then one index finger is fine. If I have it in landscape, then I tend to use both index fingers, but one works fine as well since you don't have to be all that accurate.

RE: fleksy - typing tips
I personally am not comfortable with using my thumbs at all. What works very well for me is holding the phone with my left hand, and using my index, middle, and ring fingers of my right hand to type. I use my index finger for letters on the left side of the KB, my middle finger for the middle region, and my ring finger for the right region of the KB. This is how I personally get the best speed.

Sounds painful.. Well, I guess Fleksy is not perfect, especially while typing and watching TV...

Re: fleksy - typing tips
I'm a staunch member of the thumb typing camp, whether in Fleksy or anywhere else. Like chuck, I hold my phone in portrait position and support it by resting its back against my fingers. I use my thumbs both to tap letters and to deal with swiping gestures in all directions. It works like a charm for me. I know typing this way also lay behind one friend's conversion to Fleksy. He couldn't manage to type properly with it using his old hunt p-and -peck routine, but was off to the races as soon as he gave thumb typing a whirl. I suspect he wouldn't be as down with the thong version, though. :)r Sent from my iPhone On 2012-08-12, at 8:30 PM, Chuck Dean cadean...@gmail.com wrote: Sounds painful..
