Version 41.
I have been typing with this build for about 15 minutes, no problems to report! I am even having good success getting numbers from the top line of characters. I tried entering a few words which went very smoothly. I think you have a winner! Chuck

I'm digging the new features and appreciate the removal of the hold near top for menu; 2 finger flick up is perfect.

I am however, still seeing silent letters when using hold on letters. It's not a showstopper IMO, but just letting you guys know. That's the only bug I've seen so far with build 41. It's working like a champ otherwise. Cheers and thanks, Using an iPhone 8+ Alex

Hello,

The latest 41 alpha build is great. I am not seeing any issues with manually typing characters, I am sorry to see the one finger swipe go by the way side. Thanks, Ed

Yes, I think Bill 41 is excellent, the only thing I notice is there still no indication when you are deleting a partial word. You get the same sound as if you had entered a letter, but no confirmation of the deletion. This would be helpful, but not a dealbreaker.

Build 41 is definitely a winner. It’s running very smoothly. To finger flick up for invoking the menu is working well.

I personally think the 2 finger flick up for the menu works just fine. I am not sure that we need another gesture unless the 2 finger flick up clashes with something else.

I agree, i am fine with the 2 finger swipe up, as the single finger swipe, was opening my control centre.

Anyone else having issues importing a dictionary from email? I click the link and nothing happens. Can someone confirm?
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Background: I re-installed FlickType to check if having a fresh start might fix my holding for letter bug. In the process, I wanted to import my custom words, and found I couldn't. At least, I haven't figured it out yet. Also, something else that was nibbling at my thoughts. What about exporting an actual dictionary file so a device without email set up (my iPad) can still import? Once a file association is made with iOS you can open that file from an iMessage for instance. it could also facilitate sharing of dictionaries with almost no hassle. Just some morning thoughts with my coffee. Thanks! Alex H. Alex

Hi Team,
Happy to hear things are mostly running smoothly for everyone! The manual text entry has improved, but not completely resolved - we're still working on it. As for the dictionary import issue, that is a known issue and something we're also trying to resolve, not sure if that will be a post-system-wide keyboard fix or a pre-system-wide keyboard fix as we're still trying to figure that out. For the partial word deletion issue, we will try to add a deletion sound for the standalone app for those that have the deletion sound setting on as we don't want it to announce "deleted garble" since what is typically typed really does not resemble a word before flicking right and it can be confusing if the system tries to announce that word. To make sure everyone is on the same page, our largest goal is to launch the system-wide keyboard in alpha asap and in order to do that, we need to resolve the dealbreaker issues in the standalone app and keep moving with the system-wide extension. One of the obvious dealbreaker issues is the manual entry bug, and a couple other things and then we will push the standalone app to the app store and move forward. Many of the issues specific to the standalone app will become non-issues in the extension since Kosta is building the system-wide extension from scratch and none of the shortcomings exist there. We will also be able to apply some of the newly built components to the standalone app, so lots of these issues can be resolved in the future with the work we're doing on the system-wide extension. Thanks a lot for all the great feedback! Ashley
