Please note > that this is a personal effort of my wife & I, and while I am the creator > of the original Fleksy app, FlickType is not affiliated with Fleksy. > *What is FlickType*FlickType is the fastest keyboard app in the world for > blind and low-vision iOS users, based on the familiar QWERTY layout. It is > a full-screen keyboard without a spacebar, and utilizes a couple of simple > gestures for the most common typing tasks such as entering a space, > deleting words and cycling through the automatically provided suggestions. > Instead of having traditional virtual keys, FlickType looks at the points > where > you touch the screen. Just tap once for each letter of a word, roughly > where you think that key would be on the regular keyboard, and flick right > to end the word - FlickType does the rest! > > *A new beginning*FlickType picks up from where Fleksy left off, and if it > proves to be popular enough in today's text input landscape, I have a lot > of fresh ideas to make it much better than it ever was. The app is > currently in beta, and everyone is welcome to try it out and tell us what > you think.
