Just out of curiocity, but what is this about Flicktype and the Apple Watch?
It used to be that a 2-finger swipe down inserted a new line or maybe that was in Fleksy, but now it does other things and I think the swipe right with a brief hold works quite well.

I like to use the full screen mode the best and this Apple Watch just fabulous until I want to move up a lion or down the line I wish we could figure out a gesture like maybe a two finger stroke up for a two finger stroke down to go to the next or previous line that would be great

I may be way off base, but I was wondering if it could be possible to remove the end top of document markers so you would not get stopped when flipping thru and could flip thru the whole document?

My personal preference is for the music/podcast to stop when using FlickType
as you are relying on the voice feedback in FlickType while typing. I am not
able to appreciate a good song or interesting podcast whilst trying to
decipher the spoken words in FlickType. So, I like it the way it is currently.
As with most things, a settings option to change this can suit everyone though
and risks making the app more complex than necessary. Who said being an app
developer was easy (

restaurant and found it was a pleasure to type out a short message using
FlickType  as I could see the large typed words and didn’t need to read it
back, that was the most pleasant experience I have had when typing out a
message on my phone in a noisy area. 

The app is getting better with every release and it is clear that Kosta and
Ashley are working hard to get it right for the blind and low vision
community, the efforts are truly appreciated. 

Thank you

Hi

I have both Flicktype Beta as well as Fleksy installed as third party keyboards. 

I did a test this weekend to see which one I can type faster with. 

This test was done in a  quiet environment where it was easy to hear the voiceover feedback. 

The result is that Fleksy is still faster due to two reasons only.  FlickType is better than Fleksy in all other ways::

1. As much as I have tried, I cannot type quickly with two hands in landscape or portrait mode, I get the “Letters lower case” message within the first few words I type.  Then I have to figure out which bit that I have typed is still there, clean it up and continue typing at a slower pace as to not get the “Letters lower case” message again.   A very simple fix for this would be to put an option in the settings to disable the two finger tap to change case.  There is after all an alternative option  available for most users, giving the option would be great.
2. The dictionary in FlickType is a bit limited.  Some standard English words simply don’t get recognised by FlickType where they do in Fleksy. The most recent example I came across is “jamming”.  Is there a different dictionary used between the two apps.?  A  nice feature addition would be to allow one to slowly type out the unrecognised word and then flicking up with one finger to save that word to the dictionary as in the case of Fleksy, thereby ensuring that you only need to do this once for each particular word that is not recognised.  This would also be very useful for people’s names.

Yesterday I was in a noisy restaurant and found it was a pleasure to type out a short message using FlickType  as I could see the large typed words and didn’t need to read it back, that was the most pleasant experience I have had when typing out a message on my phone in a noisy area. 

The app is getting better with every release and it is clear that Kosta and Ashley are working hard to get it right for the blind and low vision community, the efforts are truly appreciated. 

Thank you

Yes, I just noticed this the other day while listening to a baseball game
with the MLB at bat app, very annoying. Hopefully this will be addressed.
However, that said, still a lot of positives when using this app. I still do
dictate whenever possible as it is much preferred and much quicker. However,
when I do need to type I love the flicktype app.

Hello.

Today I started trying out flick type, I like it, but if I'm listening to
audio on my iPhone and I invoke the flick type keyboard, the audio stops.
Why is this so?
