Ah, Robin - you are ahead of me there! I am still a VO beginner and haven't got
to grips yet with the roter. Certainly Fleksy does need Standard Typing to be
set when using Voiceover, otherwise nothing is recognised when you touch the
keyboard. Cheers. Harry

thanks for this advice! I believe I have done all of these things, but the

Hello,
I think I'm done with Fleksy after the recent problems I had with its keyboard
but I'm curious whether any still using it can comment on the latest version
released yesterday. Is it possible that this release actually works better with
VoiceOver? I haven't gotten the impression that the
Fleksy has become unusable for me personally. It's not even that acurate
anymore.

Personally, no. I can even use the predictive keyboard to help me complete a
word. I just type the first few letters and it's often very good at completing
the word for me.

I like Fleksy for its easier to see white on black keyboard, the way it reads

With the old Fleksy VO app, I was able to type with near perfection
very quickly, much faster than I have been able to do with predictive
typing. Granted, I'm still getting used to the predictive option. I
could type out a long text in leksy VO and then copy/paste it to a
text or iMessage. Having t
With the advent of integrated predictive typing in iOS 8, is there really any
use for Fleksy? I'm really curious about this, since I don't have much
experience with the app. Does it do something that the feature in the keyboard
doesn't?

Fleksy has just brought out an update supposedly improving VoiceOver use but it
seems a calamity to me as any attempt to insert punctuation by swiping to the
right results in words or parts of words being deleted so don't get your hopes
up yet for the big fix we have been waiting for
