That's great that Gordon's advice worked for you. Chuck's advice worked for me with the Container app. This is why I spend so much time on email lists because crowd sourcing has provided me with numerous answers through the years. Alan

They have changed the multi-way toggle of the next keyboard key in iOS 13, at least on some devices, so that you have to double tap and slide in order for it to work.

Have you deleted the app and installed it again? What happens when you try to open the app? What is your device and iOS version? Luke

Thank you Gordon. That was the ticket! For me, at least.

Double tapping and sliding up gets some extra keyboard options, such as left handed keyboard, and Flicktype. Thanks again. Luke

However on the 7, I have to double tap and hold the next keyboard button and slide my finger up the side of the screen. As I make my way to the top it will announce different keyboards. So you just release your finger when you're on the one you want. So you want to try double tapping and holding the next keyboard button and sliding up to get the one you want to be active. But the next keyboard button is not there on the 7 when flick type is active. So I do a slide up to have flick type advance to the next keyboard.

Hello everyone, I have sent a notice to Kosta to a direct channel I have with him. I will see if he responds. I haven’t heard anything from Kosta in months, I’m not sure what’s happening but I know he was having some great difficulties with his family earlier this year. I am hoping that he will still be supporting Fliktype, and hope that he will get back to us soon. Chuck (mobile) Pleez x cuze enny tie ping or spelin air ores.

I apologize if you've already stated this but have you gone to Settings, General, Keyboard, Keyboards, FlickType and confirmed that allow full access is turned on? If yes, why not turn off full access, play around with keyboard input, and then turn FlickType's full access back on? Alan Lemly

When you have a keyboard open, find the button on the bottom left of the screen to switch keyboards. Double tap this button and hold it. Then slowly slide your finger up the side of the screen and see if if begins to give you additional keyboards you can choose from. If you hear flick type, release your finger and you'll have it. To switch keyboards when flick type is active, slide up with one finger like you would slide down to close the keyboard. It will switch you to the next keyboard.

OK, do you have full access enabled in keyboard settings?

Have done so at every new trouble shooting step since then, just in case. It definitely claims to see my annual subscription, and all of the keyboard options under settings are still there, but the keyboard never appears. Luke

Hello Luke, Did you try to restore your purchase in the container app? After I updated to one of the 13.1 build, for some reason Fliktype didn’t recognize that I had purchased the subscription. I went into the container app, double tap an upgrade, and in the upper right hand corner is a button that says restore. When it came back, it said that I had already subscribe to the app, but then the app worked. Try it, it may work. Chuck (mobile) Pleez x cuze enny tie ping or spelin air ores.

I haven't found any issues with flick type on IOS 13.3, and I use it every single day.

Hi Alan

An iPhone 6S is the device in question. I waited to upgrade that device from the last version of iOS 12, so I believe the first version of 13 I ran was 13.2, or the last subversion of 13.1. So as far as I know, Flicktype has never worked under any version of iOS 13 for me. Luke

Your experience with FlickType is very curious. I've had no problems with its keyboard working as it always has after I upgraded to iOS 13.2 and continuing on with iOS 13.3. I'm running it on an iPhone 8. What device are you experiencing these issues with? Alan Lemly

I even disabled it as a third party keyboard, and re-enabled it. Haven't tried in iOS 13.3 so far, but I'm upgrading to that now and will report back. I will try uninstalling it completely next, and re-installing it. After that I guess I cancel my subscription. I tried to contact support, but since the in-app contact support method just goes to this list, which bounces unless you have a subscription, I gather there is no active support from the company.

I removed and re-installed the app, and still it does not work. I can change keyboard to imoji. After that, the next keyboard button says "Flicktype", but when I tap it, it just goes back to the English keyboard. In fact, it still announces "next keyboard: flicktype", but if I actually read the button, it isn't Flicktype, but either Imoji or English. And yet some of you are having success on iOS 13.3? What are your settings? Luke
