Ann, I bought a Verbatim foldable bluetooth keyboard when I first got my iPhone 5 and it has sat unused in my drawer. It didn't take me long to figure out that wagging another device around was no fun and I needed to make other arrangements to enter text using the phone.
I use the Fleksy app for entering long texts and email messages that require more than a few characters. When entering search items and passwords, I use the onscreen keyboard with touch typing. When entering longer items or something requiring a quick turnaround, I'll use my computer keyboard to type up the item and get it to my phone for transmission using the Zero Tap app. As others have said, we have many choices so finding what works best for you just takes some trial and error.

Hi list, I am just wondering who uses bluetooth keyboards and who uses the iPhone without them. For those not using keyboards, how do you use your phones? Do you use the onscreen keyboard, or other applications to do messaging, email, etc.? I currently use a bluetooth keyboard primarily and love the ease and convenience of it, but am thinking that I should probably figure out a good way to also use the phone itself too. Am looking forward to hearing others' experiences and advice. Thanks. Ann Sent from my iPhone -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
