Is Flick Type classic limited to how many characters you can input?

Every country has an identity, history, custom, and culture. It’s a unique landscape in determining how its people Live, work, and play.

You can also enable copy and clear on exit in the settings, as well as raise to read back. When you have a chance, would super appreciate you trying out the demo tab with the old settings enabled and let us know if anything is missing for you, other than the mentioned former new line gesture which we will look into.

Thanks a bunch!

Ashley,

You are aware that new iPhones are being announced today which more than likely means folks could be getting new devices soon. And since iTunes no longer allows backing up apps to a local computer, the app must be available in the Apps Store in order to show up again on a new device that is restored from a backup. So are you sure someone who uses the Classic app and gets a new device will be able to get the Classic app again?

FlickType and IOS Developer Beta

Hello,
I am alwayse running the latest developer beta on my I devices.
Typically third party keyboards do not work for me. Has anyone gotten
Flicktype to work system-wide while running IOS betas?
Thanks

Ashley, I seem to be able to type a bit faster with the Classic version. And frankly, I haven't spent as much time on the newer/newest versions as I need to.
The action on the Classic keyboard seems just a tad faster to me than on the Beta version as well. I still have trouble flipping between keyboards in Apps, but I suspect that will get better as I use the Beta more and more.
You all have done an amazing job with this in a fairly short time so congrats.

Hi Daniel,

We removed it as a small test to check whether anyone would notice. Curious, what you prefer in the Classic mode? We've added all the main functionality from the Classic app to the demo tab in the new app, but if we missed something we'd love to hear.

Thanks!

Hello Ashley,

Once in a while I'll use flicktype Classic just to remember the different gestures and the way it operates.

I like to have many tools in case one goes missing.

Ashley,

I'm glad that was just a test and not permanent. I expect I'll start using the FlickType Keyboard after all the dust has settled and it isn't changing every few days. Until then, I prefer typing on something that is known and consistent. But I'm contributing my 99 cents a month to the FlickType Keyboard and much appreciate all the hard work on making it the best accessible keyboard available.

Re: Has FlickType classic been removed from the app store?

Classic seems ever so slightly more responsive and word patterns seemed a little more accurate.

Of course, these could be an optical illusion on my part.

These are no big deals though, because just being able to edit and move around one's text is a boom for productivity and is worth it alone.

One thing I slightly miss and that is the: two finger swipe down for a new line. Any possibility of adding this gesture back? Or could it cause conflict with anything?

Re: Bein able to paste

Daniel McGee
 

Hi Ken

If you use flicktype, there is a setting that'll allow you to copy and paste your text into another app. It's undr the: DEMO SCREEN Heading. The setting you want is: Copy and Clear Text on Exit.

I hope this helps you.

Regards

Daniel

Re: Annual subscription??

Sieghard Weitzel
 

You can put credit on your iTunes account, but the subscription is still monthly. Only advantage is that you don't see a small charge on your credit card every month.
Also, always good to remember to look for iTunes gift card deals. You do find them at 10% off, 15% off and sometimes even 20% off. Especially if you have an Apple Music family subscription at $14.99 a month which adds up to $180 a year (not counting the pennies) getting $200 worth of iTunes gift cards at 20% off does result in a pretty good saving, it would cover a year of Apple Music, a year of Flicktype and leave 8 bucks left over for a few other things.

Regards,
Sieghard
