Hi Kimmie and others. If you leave your finger on a character too long as might be the case in the new IOS7 keyboard, and if the new characters prompt is presented, try this...
When you hear "alternative characters available" simply split tap somewhere on the keyboard and the prompt will disappear. Make sure to move your finger elsewhere or else the same prompt will pop up--just split tap again to make the prompt disappear. By the way, if you use "Standard typing," which you can access through the rotor, you will not have this problem. If you get yourself into the habit of using your middle-finger to find characters and split-tapping with your index or ring finger, you will be surprised at just how fast you will be able to type using this standard typing keyboard.

Yes I find this a pain too, because you have to lift your finger up, and then delete the character you didn't want.
