Flicktype Classic


Benny Barber
 

Help from anyone, please. I am revisiting the FlickType Classic keyboard. I can't remember how to edit a sentence. I can't remember how to go back several words in a sentence or paragraph to change a word. How do I go backwards without deleting everything as I go back? Thanks for the help.

Hello Benny,
Sorry, but there is no way to move the cursor in the FlickType Classic app. What I do is when I make a mistake, I remember it, and then, once I export a text to wherever I need to put it, for example, an email or a text message, then I bring up the iOS keyboard and edit it that way.
I’m pretty sure there’s no other way to do it.

Hello Chuck, 
Yeah, that's what I figured. I am doing what you are doing. I remember my mistake and correct it after I paste it in my message. Thanks for the reply. Anything new with FlickType and Costa? I was hoping that something would come from Apple to get FlickType implemented. I'm just a little frustrated that this thing can't be worked out. Thanks again.

Hello Benny,
No, I haven’t heard anything about Fliktype or Kosta. I did hear a rumor, and I don’t know how accurate it is, that he settled his lawsuit with Apple.
I don’t understand why he doesn’t just put FlickType Classic into the App Store. It is always been the fastest and most accurate way to type with FlickType. 
When fliktype worked in every text field, it was a little shaky, and had a lot of inaccuracies. It seem to be better, but when I actually counted the strokes, typing in the FlickType classic app, and exporting the text into a text field, almost always proved to have less strokes.
Also, the previous version of Fliktype needed an update every time the iOS changed. Fliktype classic has worked with every version of ios without needing maintenance!
When I was an alpha and beta tester, on FlickType, after I would do my testing. I would go into my keyboard settings, turn off, full access, and go back to using the FlickType Classic app. Kosta asked me why one time, and I told them a it does not invade my privacy and be it is the fastest and most accurate way to type on the phone for me.

I think I did read somewhere that Kosta did settle his lawsuit. One would think that something good would come out of this in regards to flicktype. After I read about the settlement, I e-mailed Kosta and asked him if we might see flicktype in the future. I got no response. This whole thing seems silly. Oh well, when it comes to money… Thanks.
