I used to be quite good with the keyboard but, perhaps tdue to health and 
medication, not quite so good these days.  I still can make it and don't think 
it was due to my incapacity that I had the problem.

  I am sorry. I do not use a keyboard. I do all my data entry using the 
onscreen keyboard or braille entry on the screen.


  Practice will improve your onscreen skills. Remember, it takes very tiny 
movements of the finger. This is quite difficult for blind people to master as 
we are used to making very large movements.

    Hi all,

    I am running a 4S and set out to add a contact today.  This is the first I 
had had to add since installing the latest firmware, 8.2.

    Again, as in previous builds of the software, I discovered that the basics 
were just awful!  I was using an Apple keyboard and again started to get double 
letters inserted.  I therefore abandoned the keyboard and decided to complete 
the task by hand.  It was difficult, particularly when it came to entering 
numbers on the keyboard as these appeared very sensitive to any touch.  It took 
me much longer than it should have done!

    Has anyone else done this with the latest update and found things 
difficult, or otherwise?

    I have reported this to the Accessability Team and, to be honest, I'm not 
too impressed because these are basic things that keep recurring.

    I hope others will try out this task and, if you also have trouble, please 
make this known.

    It is at times like this (when I have to get organised and I don't have too 
much time left before going out) that I almost want to give up my iPhone!  
<Smiles>

    I never can because there are things about it, particularly the use of some 
of the apps, that I'd really miss!
