Re: Changing k eyboard problem

Harry Bell
 

I have just had another problem: I opened my Halifax banking app on my iPhone XS and tried to make a payment to someone. When the text edit field came along to enter the amount, the FlickType keyboard (App Store version with subscription) came up. I started typing numbers but the first tap (as so often) did not register so when I realised I’d typed £00 instead of £100, I tried swiping left to delete but the cursor just jumped back up the page. So tgen I tried changing the keyboard to the iOS by swiping up, but I simply could not get the gesture to work. I never had this problem with my iPhone 7 Plus. I had to quit the app, reply to an email, where I could change out of FlickType and tgen go back into the banking app where I did not have this time to grapple with the FlickType keyboard. Somehow, it is not working well on iPhone XS for me!

Congrats on the new phone, Harry! Will you please let us know more details so we can reproduce the issue? Are you running the same iOS and FlickType version that you were running on your previous device? What are those version numbers? Was this issue present from the very first time you tried running FlickType on the new device? Does the test disappear if you use the dismiss keyboard button instead of the gesture?

Thanks!

Re: Disappearing text

Harry Bell
 

One thing I've just tracked down is that, on the new iPhone XS, when I flick down to select an alternative to the word suggested by FlickType, that is when even a very slight hesitation at the end of the swipe down is interpreted by FlickType as a dismiss keyboard command. This does not happen on my iPad nor did it ever happen on the old iPhone 7 plus. This may mean that the iPhone XS screen is more sensitive? Anyway, that is one problem explained!
Cheers

Re: Disappearing text

Harry Bell
 

Curious, I cannot reproduce the disappearing text, but I'll keep checking. On my old iPhone I was using the beta but on this iPhone XS I'm using the standard app store version. What I do notice are:
When starting to write new text, I'm never sure whether the first tap on the keyboard is entered. Mostly it simply causes the keyboard to announce Flicktype instead of entering the first letter I'd tapped.
I'm finding it much harder to use the single finger flick down to dismiss the keyboard, so I'm using the dismiss button more. I keep finding that I've dismissed the keyboard when just tried to tap a letter, which is annoying and never happened when using the beta on my old phone. I'll update you if I find out what is causing these problems.
Thanks

Hi George,
Ignore the restore button.
in the center of the upgrade screen you should have two options, one week free, then ninety nine cents a month,

Or

One week free, then eleven ninety nine per year.

These are US amounts, so yours will be different.

Re: Disappearing text

Kimberly Parsley
 

I have the same problem, although mine isn't confined to a single gesture. It seems to happen anytime I accidentally touch the screen. It's almost as though my accidental tap moves the insertion point. iPhone 7, latest build. This issue has been present from the beginning. It happens on my iPad as well.

Yes, FlickType will enter words manually typed at the end of your typing session. Once you dismiss the keyboard the words should be in the dictionary.

Hi Leonard, George,

Thanks for the support, means a lot to us! No need to remove the beta version when you update to the store version, but you do need to be on the store version to upgrade to the subscription. When you search for FlickType on the App Store, actually click on FlickType and go to the App page and then press download to ensure you get the App Store version. Once you download the app from the App Store, go to the upgrade screen and you will have two options available 1) 1-week trial, then monthly, and 2) 1-week trial, then yearly. You do not need to click restore at the top right, instead simply click on which of the two subscriptions you'd like to sign up for. Once you click on the option you'd like, Apple's standard payment agreement prompt should pop up asking for your password or your touch ID after following the prompt you should be subscribed.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Warmly,
Ashley
