Joy,
If you are a subscribed user of FlickType, It is presented as an alternate keyboard on which you do your typing instead of the on screen iOS keyboard. You type where you think the keys should be for the word you're entering and single finger swipe right when done. FlickType has a very strong predictive engine and will announce the word it thinks you wanted. If correct, you simply start typing your next word and FlickType will insert the space after the previous word. If the predicted word is not the one you wanted, single finger swipe down through other choices and start typing your next word when the correct word is announced. You're going to have to invest some time researching FlickType since it does have a bit of a learning curve but it is well worth learning how to use it. Try reading this AppleVis article: https://www.applevis.com/forum/ios-ios-app-discussion/introducing-brand-new-system-wide-flicktype-keyboard I would also suggest you download the free FlickType and start playing with it.

Dear Alan, Thank you for the background on flickType, ... sorry, but how does it actually work please? I'm very interested in anything that allows me to "type" more quickly on the phone but I'd like to have some idea of its actual usage before trying it out. For one thing does it come up every time a keyboard is/would be displayed? And what do you do to use it?
