Its like, if you are directly touching letter g, the letter g is written in the edit box before you lift your finger from the letter g again. Any letter or sign is printed in the edit box at once you touch the specific letter. Very very very difficult. Need for skills .....

It is what I am asking, how it works. I know standard typing, and touch typing working with IOs 7, but I don't know the 3th mode of typing that comes with IOs 8. Again, my question is, how works direct touch typing. The description of Teresa, I just couldn't understand. She said, It is like typing on a keyboard. I can figure out how is it. I mean, on a touch screen, typing like we do on a keyboard, is going to be hard been blind. On our keyboards we can feel the keys, but maybe I am misunderstanding the Teresa description.

I don't understand when you say that direct touch typing is similar than typing on a keyboard. I mean, I have IOs7.x, and I know 2 typing mode; standard typing, and touch typing. The first is doing a double tab on each letter that we want to tuype. The second is sliding our finger until the letter we want to type, and releasing the finger on that letter. Automaticly the letter is typed with out double tab. When you say that direct touch typing is similar than typing on a keyboard, I can't figure out how is it. Can you give me more details?

It allows you to tap the letter you want to use once you reach it. It's kind of similar to typing on a keyboard. I think it feels quite natural, but I'm experiencing some issues with it. It doesn't work for entering my passcode. In fact my iPod 5G defaults to standard typing when I enter the passcode, so I've switched back to touch typing.

What is described in "iOS8 without the eye" and is maybe more difficult but works, is to tap the letter and then release quickly. I think this would require a good finger memory of where the different letters are or a screen protector with dots because if I understand correctly you are just tapping down and then releasing quickly. It's different from touch typing because with touch typing you can just slide your finger around and lift up. The direct touch typing needs a definite tap and then a quick release. I'm probably not describing this very well and I'm not very good at it yet but I've done it enough to know sort of how it feels. But a split tap also would accomplish this I think. -- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash!

Many, if not most sighted people don't even look at their keyboard when they are typing on the iPhone. Whether they realize it or not, they are actually watching the output of what they are typing on the screen, but are in fact, typing purely by muscle memory and familiarity of the keyboard with their fingers or thumbs. I have a sighted friend and neighbor who, I swear, has to set some sort of speed record with her ability to type quickly on the iPhone. She most definitely isn't watching what she is typing, and the "clicking" sound that accompanies each keystroke simply can't keep up with her movement. LOL Having had usable vision once myself, I know exactly what he is talking about, because I have been "touch typing" now since I was in the third grade or so. I have longed for a way to type as sighted folks do on my iDevices, not so much because I just have an overwhelming desire to "be" like the sighted, but because I honestly believe I could type more quickly and efficiently that way. Even on the iPhone, which doesn't have nearly as much space in which to position either or both hands, I can make good use of the direct typing function with one or two fingers at a time. It's just like anything else, it comes with a learning curve, and as always, it's not for everyone. Personally, I have no use for inputting text via a virtual braille keyboard, as I just can't get used to scrunching my fingers into such a small place, and I really do prefer tactile buttons pressing underneath my fingers, but I think the concept is cool and I am glad there are folks who can make use to it. :-) As for me and braille input, I'll stick to the braille display.

Direct touch typing absolutely rocks on an iPad, and when I first started using this feature three months ago, I couldn't imagine using it on my phone. Now I am starting to, and I suspect it will be used even more regularly when I get my 6 Plus. But there's definitely a knack to it and it may take a while to learn. Direct typing is a great reason to have a SpeedDots screen protector. It really helps and the combination can speed you way up.

For those whom muscle memory and spacial orientation come more naturally, it's a pretty neat option.
