jesus, this is what someone gets for asking a simple question. If you
consider it clutter, just delete the message. Perhaps it would have been
more fitting to ask on the android list, but, then again, it also brings
up other questions, the chance they might consider developing for
jailbreakers, for example.

I would not consider purchasing an androide phone for several reasons.
First of all, there are not nearly the number of applications which can be used
on the androide phones.
Second of all, the applications I use on my Iphone work very well, why should I
settle for less?
thirdly, if I've gone to all the trouble of getting used to the Iphone, invested in a
book, and probably a seconde one, purchased perhapse 30 apps, found a whole bunch of
games that I am certain work on this device, why should I switch to a phone with the
"maybe" in the possibilities of being as useful as I know my Iphone is?
Go ask your questions to the androide lists if there are any for blind folks
instead of cluttering up the IOS list/Iphone list with your inquiries
concerning phones which clearly do not and have not stood up to the test of
reliabilityk, ease of use and functionality that the Iphone has proven to be
possible, and oh yes, one retailer offers the speech program for the androide
phones for free, but only those above a certain level of software installation,
$99 for most of the rest? Why, why would I do that when I can get a phone with
a speech program installed in it for free, no matter which service provider I
choose?

Subject: Re: Fleksy on Android devices
Thank you for your email! I am very excited about this. I am planning on
getting an android phone for my next phone! Fleksy would be a great thing to
have as a keyboard on the phone!

Hi from the Fleksy team. We are writing to ask a question to those in the
list.
As you know, we are committed to develop Fleksy and make it available for
more and more users.
One of the restrictions we've had so far, is that on iOS, Fleksy cannot
replace your system keyboard across the device. We provide as much integration
as possible, letting you email, SMS, tweet, and (soon) post to Facebook from
within Fleksy. And you can copy and paste to any other app.
We are trying to go beyond this: we could provide Fleksy as a keyboard
across the device, so you can use it in every single app without the need to
have a separate app, or to copy and paste. We've also noticed that Android is
becoming more and more accessible for visually impaired users with each update.
So, here's a question for the list:
If there was a phone that was accessible, and that had Fleksy built in
from the start. By built in, we mean that Fleksy could be used as a system
keyboard on every app, and that Fleksy would come with the phone, i.e. without
having to purchase the app separately.
How likely would this be to make you consider buying such a device?
Obviously we are talking about a hypothetical scenario, so for now let's
assume all other features will be the same as your current device.
Would the availability of Fleksy as a system typing mode to use in every
app make you consider an accessible Android phone in your next upgrade?
Looking forward to your thoughts on this.
Ioannis
Fleksy team
