This Keyboard has a lot of potential and is my current keyboard on Note II. Has potential to replace Swiftkey/Swype in future for a lot of people :)

A few issues I've been facing:

* Sometimes backspace randomly stops working

* The swype-space sometimes tend to be too sensitive and I end up putting spaces accidentally.

That's the couple of issues I've had thus far. Other than that, I could type without looking at the screen with great precision, which is really cool! And love the keyboard layout too :)
[Android Apps and Games] HoochieCoo:
This could be a great keyboard. I have stopped using it for the time being. I'll give it shot again on the next release.

Sticking points for me :

1. Punctuation entry is tedious. Same thing with single number entry (like in a password).

2. Swiping for me often results in extra characters. I am often backing up to correct.

3. I really hate how the keys always show uppercase. This is a bigger deal outdoors when I can't always see the shift indicator well.

4. Single letter auto correction is a pain. For example: If I type "r" it constantly wants to change it to "a" even if I backspace and change it back. This could be said of longer words too. If I back up and manually change a word, stop changing it back.
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
I'm a developer myself and extensively test my own stuff so little things like that do catch my eye, especially with a mainly used ui element .

yeah I'm slowly getting the hang of forcing custom words in, on the topic; is the saved words supposed to be saved into the system dictionary? mine aren't showing up there. and when saving new words, it identifies words like Woo different from woo(case sensitivity) but does not correct as such.

I'm thinking if the autocorrect becomes case sensitive, then grant an option to disable auto-caps, if not, then simply its a matter of minimizing double entries into the saved words database.

another issue I noticed, jelly bean(unsure of other variants) password entry doesn't seem to work even with the correct password. I suspect the caps lock but I'm still looking around for the exact cause.

I still haven't got anything. Been a week

[Android Apps and Games] Dom_An:
Cheers! Can you give us the premise where password entry doesn't work for you? Which app/website/browser etc.

We are working on minimizing double entries. The current implementation is case sensitive, until you save the all lower-case version of the word. We will revisit this later on.

Currently, the dictionary is bound to the Fleksy Beta app installation and does not carry over to the system dictionary, or the cloud. This will also change soon.

[MENTION=1436702]genderblurr[/MENTION] Hi! Can you send us an email at xdabeta@fleksy.com? It will help us find out why you haven't received an invitation yet, as well as send you the beta of course :)
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
the password entry for the screenlock. if you wish, i can upload a video demoing the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] Dom_An:
Got it and reproduced. Cheers!

It is more of a New Line vs Done issue.
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
Awesome, hey I was having trouble finding a good demo of a real world example of the keyboard so I made this one if you want to use it. I don't care what's done with it.

Hi together... Is the 1.8 (1) #11 the last build to get over testflight ? I didn't get any updated build..

Kaaaaatsching...tapatalked...
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
Me either,

On a side note, think an option to disable autocorrect for words that are ALREADY correct is a must. I'm getting slowed down more than helped when this keep happening. A lot of words like words gets changed to worlds and worlds to world and oddly enough world gets changed to worlds too. This is the most aggravating part of the keyboard so far.

( this was a pain to type out for example )

Edit : it seems to happen more when the system spell checker is active...
[Android Apps and Games] isbvietnam:
I will try
[Android Apps and Games] Dom_An:
Correct. System spellcheck is still experimental. If you disable it, Fleksy will never add or remove characters.

Optimizations will come with each version, as increased accuracy is our main objective.

Latest version is 1.8 (1) #11. 1.9 is on the way soon.
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
Roger /me sits down
[Android Apps and Games] Dom_An:
Just pushed new update - Fleksy Beta 1.9 should be in your inboxes!
[Android Apps and Games] myozeus:
Dom? Can I test your beta now for ICS? maheshmusicep AT gmail DOT com :) (BTW I've applied already a few times) Dont get me wrong about nagging you,I've been following you guys since BlindType and I'm glad I have the phone now to test it out. SO kinda excited.

Cheers and Regards

EDIT: Got it. Thanks for being so awesome and interactive you guys. Never seen devs so responsive. :)

Just installed this few minutes ago and I must say, its really, really intuitive and addictive. Thanks for accepting me into the beta test :)
[Android Apps and Games] Der_Flooo:
Hey nice keyboard but more languages ?? Is it so difficult to include more languages? I dont think so...Hmm..but anyways a nice keyboard :)
[Android Apps and Games] tlf55:
Yeah french would be awsome !
[Android Apps and Games] mdfzhi:
Found a bug. Can't type anything in terminal emulator, it just won't register any letter typed using Fleksy.
[Android Apps and Games] leald:
I don't have any trouble with this
[Android Apps and Games] mdfzhi:
Weird that for me it doesn't. Btw I'm running cyanogenmod 10.1 with its default built-in terminal emulator, not downloaded from market if that matter.
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
I thought there was already a mode that didn't have the bar. I personally used that as a queue to tell me the board was open... If there was a visual queue that would stay on the screen somewhere that would be awesome
[Android Apps and Games] leald:
Yeah I tested on the market one so I think that is your issue
[Android Apps and Games] coolnessQ:
Still waiting for the option to turn off auto correction...

[Android Apps and Games] p3terr:
I just downloaded it and tried it by sending some tweets. First thought: awesome prediction (using it in Spanish), but still can't figure out how to change words that the auto correct doesn't recognize, i've tried swiping and nothing, it changes my word to something else.

Also, the first time using it, the tutorial was kinda confusing, still didn't understand circles and what they do.

Keep the good work guys, i can totally see this keyboard as one of the best for fast typing and great preddictions out there.

---------- Post added at 09:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:57 PM ----------

I just figure out how to stick with a word that was being changed lol, it took me a while.
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
Was the last update redacted? I got it on my phone but no longer shows
[Android Apps and Games] raducux:
I have no update in my testflight app.
[Android Apps and Games] adilahmed:
Does this have swipe...m not sure

:confused:
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
No. Think of it like a happy medium between the inaccuracy of swipe and still tapping to type with an optional invisible keyboard so you can still see your screen. It's harder to swipe blind than it is to type blindly with this keyboard.

---------- Post added at 07:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:30 AM ----------

I got the 1.9 update and its A LOT faster.
[Android Apps and Games] willsucceed:
Not seeing an update either, definitely fiending for a new one! :DWhat's going on ?
[Android Apps and Games] Dom_An:
Build should be back online guys, go ahead and install :)

Thanks for the early feedback! Keep it coming. ICS people, welcome to the thread :))
[Android Apps and Games] cms5423:
I see the update, but when i click on it, I keep getting an error "Unable to download apk"

I've tried everything (wiping data from TestFlight app, using wifi, using 4g, rebooting the phone, nothing seems to work.

Any thoughts?
[Android Apps and Games] rockb.blues:
This is by far one of the most unique keyboards I've used. It's actually quite intuitive despite the fact I can't get used to the delete key being so low and still haven't gotten used to swiping to delete or to change a word for that matter. It is neat though and I look forward to using it extensively.
[Android Apps and Games] dictionary:
Go into your download folder and delete the previous downloads of Fleksy.
[Android Apps and Games] cms5423:
No previous downloads
[Android Apps and Games] anerik:
Heyy, little help! I received the update on my gmail, and i logged in and downloaded testflight app, but fleksy isn't there for download!
[Android Apps and Games] cms5423:
Takes a couple hours for it to show up
[Android Apps and Games] anerik:
Ohh that's great to hear, thx. Looking forward for fleksy on ics
[Android Apps and Games] nimrodity:
where can i find the changelog for 1.9 ?
[Android Apps and Games] anerik:
Hey, been testing for some mins and it looks really awesome on my live with walkman running android 4.0... just too small font in autocorrect/learned *word* text, everything else just fine... But does this keyboard predict the next word somehow? lol
[Android Apps and Games] the1dynasty:
Just got my invite, funny thing, I signed up so many months ago that Idk what this even is... Well, I didn't know lol... Hopefully I get my apk soon yo try this out :D
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
Big issue with 1.9 retaining custom words. I'm having to watch out for words I have fought it four times before and we teach it. This is confirmed across two different devices.
[Android Apps and Games] Dom_An:
Custom words are reset with each version. Sorry for that, we will create a system with coming updates, cloud support too.
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
If the keyboard is changed to another then back (effectivly restarting the board ) then the saved words don't persist.
[Android Apps and Games] xxxrichievxxx:
Great keyboard! The only two things that are different are the backspace is a bit weirdly located. Also I would like to see a period on the keyboard and not have to hound for it through the keyboard symbols.

Also my works keep on being changed and I can't select the word I wanted. For example if I put 'lol' it changes it to something else. I see that the keyboard has a few words above the keyboard but I can't select the word.
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
Read the guide the op has posted a few times. Double space for period, and swipe up/down to go through suggestions.
[Android Apps and Games] Dom_An:
Hmm. I can't reproduce exactly, saved words persist in our test devices when you change keyboards. I did, however, notice a crush in the process, so thanks for this!
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
My test devices are a nexus 4 and a nexus 10 . Both are running official builds of paranoid android, specifically the alpha 5 halo build. Alpha for an unrelated feature.

Here's a vid demoing the bug

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_bkxTZXrpqwemJXeUhydVhfNEE/edit?usp=drive_web
[Android Apps and Games] goker3:
My testing experience

Ok .. so ..

1. I'm using the Hebrew lang, so without it i have no use in this keyboard.

2. When the keyboard is "invisible" and you want to move the pointer to another place in the sentence you just can't because it's typing instead, do you have any solution for that ? because invisible mode is awesome.

3. The "Enter" does'nt work for me.

4. In the second version of the keyboard (after pulling down with two fingers so that you don't have the space key, enter key etc.) there is some kind of problem swiping left in order to delete and right in order to make a space or other chars ..

I think that it .. oh and it's 50mb which is pretty big O_o

Anyway, great great work ! :)

And sorry for my bad english ..
[Android Apps and Games] WeWearFedoras:
I'm running this on my nexus 7 now and I love it! Thanks guys!
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
The issue you're having with the invisible board is going to happen. There's not much you can do to fix that. The mini keyboard swiping can be a pain but if you make it more sensitive, some devices that lay will think you're swiping with things like ere and so on.
[Android Apps and Games] xxxrichievxxx:
I was thinking of a more comfortable setup because it can be a bit weird to type in this keyboard. Although it's a really good keyboard I think it needs a some aesthetic changes. Here is what I whipped up in adobe photoshop touch:

Good idea? Maybe instead of sliding up to change a word just click on the specific word to save the word?

Idk just throwing some ideas out there :p

I'm not a pro at photoshop :p
[Android Apps and Games] dictionary:
^^ this is so much more friendly. I can't take how low the back key is. Really annoying. Same with the enter key. I'd also really love the long press on keys, but it isn't needed.
[Android Apps and Games] nimrodity:
Agree, the button layout is one of bigger issues I have with this keyboard.

Enter and back places so weird and totally not intuitive.

No extra functios on buttons like numbers and punctuation.

Access to numbers is too cumbersome, no next word predictions and only being able to see the current prediction after actually having typed the word doesn't feel natural at all for me. Never had a keyboard making the typing experience such a pain like this.

The idea is maybe good but atm it just isn't comfortable for me to use

[Android Apps and Games] WeWearFedoras:
I actually love the layout as is. I rarely, if ever, use the actually enter, space, or back keys... I use the mini keyboard layout with no space bar or enter keys... and use swipe right for space, twice right for punctuation, and swipe left for backspace. If you need to pull up the character/number keys you simply swipe up from the bottom right corner of the keyboard, I've found this actually makes my punctuation and numbers faster than on most keyboards where you have to push a specific button to change to number/characters or you have to long press. Regardless once I've gotten used to this keyboard I love it!
[Android Apps and Games] nimrodity:
thanks didnt know how to access the numbers/punct. in small mode but still all this swiping still feels wrong.I cant believe someone is acutally faster with this method in general than with moe typical keyboards like swiftkey or touchpal
[Android Apps and Games] WeWearFedoras:
The thing I figured out with this keyboard is this: With almost all other keyboards I have to spend my time looking at the keyboard and not what I'm typing. I have to look at each individual key, find punctuation, etc, etc. But with this keyboard I don't have to look at the keyboard... after all it was originally made for blind people :) I am able to look at the screen and message I'm typing (like I would normally on a keyboard and computer) and that allows me to type faster.... at least it feels faster because I make less mistakes and it is more natural... BUT it does take a while to get used to.
[Android Apps and Games] darksora145:
The new update is more responsive to fast typing and registers 90% of my touch responses. I like where this is going ! :)
[Android Apps and Games] myozeus:
Hello Dom,have been testing on ICS ever since its been out. Works smoothly. No hassles setting up and the experience itself is great. The tutorial didnt work(it simply showed the fleksy sign and stopped). This happened on the Official Stock 4.0.4 ICS for this phone(not much known around US) called the K Touch w619/Walton Primo/Karbonn A5. BUT this was reproduced on a custom ICS rom for the HTC explorer(Pico) as well. It didnt bother me but I'm trying to be of help.

Also,the APK is HUGE and it takes relatively quite a chunk of RAM as well. Any chances it would reduce? (Observation,few of the settings options mentioned for earlier versions on JB were not there for me in this version) Also,the right and left swipe up for shift and symbols does not work in the layout with the space bar,it simple gets clicked on the z or the m key(I dont know if it was meant to be that way cos I love the layout without the space)

I very much liked tapping with a single finger(which I should get faster at) but sometimes I miss a tap or so,and it seems that the auto prediction heavily depends on the number of taps. like if I wanted to type "awesome" and type "awesme" it doesnt know. I don't mean to say that it should auto correct to "awesome" because I understand that its not how the keyboard works,but "awesome" could be present in the list of possibilities that I could "swipe up" into .

Anyways,hope this could be of some help.
[Android Apps and Games] Zachinater:
Would be nice if the keyboard hight was adjustable

Over all a pretty good keyboard

I prefer tap keyboards over swype keyboards I just like having more room on the keyboard

Have had no man whatsoever and way better than stock android, or swiftkey, or even a.I. Type keyboard, my previous favorite

Though would be nice if there were long press short cuts and a comma key on the main keyboard

Can anybody upload the latest build of Fleksy...

Dear all,

it's very long and clumsy process to download the latest build of Fleksy apk. so if possible for anybody, please upload it to some resumable link and share with us. I think this will be a great help for all of us...

:o

Mod Edit: Please do not ask or provide an alternative method for getting fleksy. The OP has provided a means for people to have access....use it!
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
It's not really. Get test flight, accept invite to test group, install and have fun. I would gladly post it but it really isn't up to me. Email the app devs for a copy.
[Android Apps and Games] myozeus:
Since its a private beta,uploading anywhere is not cool!

Anyways,few more ideas that could be done(which might have been said before)

1. A return/enter key/gesture in the letter mode(w/o space). I find this layout pretty awesome and that's the only thing I noticed was missing which is very important in many environments.

2. A backup/restore to/from sdcard option to store the previously learnt words(and probably other settings) by Fleksy. I do flash roms a lot. And I'm sure such a feature would be pretty standard.

3.Smileys option?

4.This last one might be too much to ask,but I'll throw it in anyways lol An easier way to navigate across text(move the cursor) in the Invisible mode. Because if someone is gonna make the invisible layout their daily usage one,then they WILL be typing very fast. During that time,one might miss a tap,get the wrong prediction(lol Fleksy? :) ) or anything else. During this time its essential for us to go back and correct it. And to move the cursor,I HAVE to press the back button,move it to the appropriate position,correct it and AGAIN press back,move cursor to the end and continue typing. So that might be a deal breaker.
[Android Apps and Games] alcaprone:
Just received my invitation and tried it..very cool concept!can't wait for italian dictionary to use it everyday and better report issues!
[Android Apps and Games] kyokeun1234:
The new update for Fleksy improved auto correct dramatically! I'm quite surprised by how well the auto correct is :)

There's still some problem with it but not as much.

The swiping gestures feel more accurate too and doesn't feel like there's as much mistake as the last version. Like others said, changing some of the button layouts to more "traditional layout" (delete key beside m, enter button right at the right corner, etc... ) will be much appreciated, but you can get used to it in few days easily.

Big fixes are also very nice. Thanks for that.

Just saw this language stats.

Can someone please help me? I'm using a Sony Xperia T on a custom rom and the build number is LT30p however when I registered I couldn't remember and put down LT30a....

So things were going smoothly, until I was downloading fleksy in the testflight app. The wifi shut out on me and the download was not finished. Now it only shows "Install" option and when I click it it always says "parse error there was an error parsing this file" :( Is there anyway to fix this?! Do I need to reapply or clear the bad download?! Help!
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
Click on the search button or read back a few pages.

Another good solution would be to delete the partial download from the downloads folder and try again.

But that search button man, its good stuff

Another bug report for you dom, if the keyboard is open and you switch keyboards while it's invisible, it won't stop hooking inputs.

Another issue is that if you close the current app(or the app stops focus on the text input closing the keyboard )it still hooks the back button resulting in what appears to be a failed back button press.

Both issues I can reproduce and provide video if you wish.

turkish language so i can't use it like daily-use.

Thanks for checking in!

We are working on invisible persisting when switching kbs bug. Currently, you can dismiss it without switching back to Fleksy, if you swipe up with two fingers.

Thanks for reporting Back button. It will be fixed with next release.

Thanks Luca! We got the back button bug.
