Re: App pricing
Daniel McGee
To kosta and Ashley
I'm sure you have already considered this but just throwing it out there anyway.
If people are finding money to be tight at the moment or feel pressure in anyway in adding to there list of subscriptions,. Have you considered adding a tip jar to the container app? This way, maybe people won't feel so pressurised
and when they have the money, can donate in the form of in app purchases to the apps development for its future.
To get a sense of what I am trying to explain, checkout the apps: downcast and Twitterrific to see what I mean.
Also, for really big updates, maybe charge an in app purchase to unlock the special feature instead of always having an active subscription.
Of course, I am more than happy to pay for a subscription, these are just ideas as alternatives for different country markets and people's own respective situations in regards to money.
What does everyone think about the extra ideas for the apps future development?
Kind regards to all
Daniel

Thanks for your feedback. Our pricing plans are fluid and we will try to come up with a pricing structure that works for everyone, but for now, we've found that this is the most accessible pricing structure for the largest number of people.

Letter by letter? for each word? Maria, what would be the benefit of using Flicktype then?
Cheers, JPR

Re: New languages
Jean-Philippe Rykiel
Hello Kosta.
thank you so much for this very informative reply. Now I understand. Fleksy had the same approach, but I Imagine you cannot use their dictionary can you. Shame because the work has already been done in terms of probability. Although I find that Fleksy makes much more mistakes in French than it does in English. Anyway, Tell me if I can help, and how ; I am just starting to realise the extents of the work. Cheers, JPR

Hello,

I just wanted to write back quickly before you spend too much time on my issue to let you know that all is working perfectly for me. I've forwarded my previous message (see below) just to give you the full story. By the way, after letting 5 hours or so go by, success came after using the Restore button in the Update tab, after which my subscription was confirmed on my 3rd device. Thank you once again, and keep up the amazing work! Smile Take good care, Rod Hutton Toronto, Canada Sent from Outlook for Windows

Couldn’t you type it letter by letter instead of tap typing it?

Thank you, very much, for the feedback. We will be improving those gestures, but I hope you've found that you can enable the next keyboard and dismiss buttons in the settings for now. And, yes, once we implement our half screen keyboard we should be golden. Thanks, again! Ashley

Thanks for your message! We plan to add French and several other languages, but it will take us some time as we only have one developer at the moment. When we get the app in a stable place we will start adding languages. Stay tuned! Ashley

Re: Transaction failed
Thank you Rod, and we will investigate.
In the meantime, can you please confirm that you are using the exact same Apple ID on your third device as with the other two? You can check this by going to the iOS Settings app, then tapping on your name at the very top, and selecting "iTunes and App Store". Also, have you tried using the "Restore" option at the top left of the FlickType upgrade screen? Warmly, Kosta

Re: New languages
Hi JPR,
With regards to adding new languages, FlickType is a bit unique due the nature of how much inaccuracy it is designed and expected to tolerate. Simply grabbing an existing dictionary is not enough, because there are often valid words that are very uncommon, but have letters similar to words that are much more common. One such example for English is the word "fir", spelled F I R and referring to the tree, which is extremely close to the letters of the word "for", F O R. It would be very frustrating for users if there's even a small chance they get "fir" when they try to type "for", because that small chance would be amplified by just how common the word "for" is. To address this, we need to have a good understanding of how common or uncommon words are in each language we support. For a language like English, we have a pretty good idea ourselves of what words are common and what are not, although even with English there are some slang terms and jargon that are only common for some people and some areas, but not others. Language modules of other keyboards are not publicly available for us to use, and language modules that are available are usually from public sources like Wikipedia or news articles, which do not capture the way people use the language when they type on their device. For example, the term "GOP" that refers to the Republican Party in the US would far surpass nearby words such as "top" and "hop", while "lol" would barely even exist. So what we need is not as readily available, or even as objective as you might expect, even though there are some workarounds, each with varying levels of required effort. All in all, I'd say that adding new languages to FlickType compared to other keyboards is not qualitatively different, but it's quantitatively harder since we need to have more accurate word frequency data than the average keyboard. - Kosta

App pricing
leonard morris
I deleted the threat regarding the cost of this app. However I am wondering if you could have both pricing schemes for example, the monthly as well as an annual fee. I put my yearly services on my credit card and my monthly services on my debit cart. I'm trying to cut down on my emails from Apple and banks. By the way iPad the older flick Type app for quite some time but to be honest I didn’t like it initially. I think it’s because I probably didn’t know what I was doing but I find myself now using it more and more. I dictated the last part of this message but the part about pricing I used Flick Type classic. regardless I’ll probably end up buying that app sometime next week and I’m looking forward to listening to that radio show coming up.
Every country has an identity, history, custom, and culture. It’s a unique landscape in determining how its people Live, work, and play.

Accessibility Matters Interviews Flicktype Team Thursday
Shawn Krasniuk
Hey all. As you may or may not know, I host a radio show on a local station in Winnipeg called Accessibility Matters. It can be heard Thursdays at 11:00 AM on 95.9 CKUW. This Thursday,, I interview the developers of this app, Ashley and Kosta, and we talk about how they came up with the idea to develop this great app, and a whole lot more. So don't forget to listen to Accessibility Matters Thursday at 11:00 AM central time on 95.9 CKUW. There are several ways to listen. You can go to ckuw.ca and click on the listen live button when it airs, you can ask Google Assistant or Alexa to play CKUW on TuneIn, or if you miss it or can't listen to it at the moment, on that same website listed above, you can find the archives section and download it there. I also host a Whatsapp group where I post the day's episodes every week. You can join it by double tapping this link: https://chat.whatsapp.com/6hVRrEBrvWS5tWdkcpKbpH
And of course, if you have any feedback on the episode, let me know. Shawn Sent From My New MacBook Air Facebook Username: Shawn Krasniuk Twitter Handle: shawnk_aka_bbs Skype username: bbstheblindrapper Facetime: bbsshawn@...
