Is it the accuracy of the words, or the speed that is giving you problems?
I know for me it took some getting used to, to be fast with it. You spend a few years listening for a key, and with this app, the key is to quickly tap in the general direction of the key, and continue on. I still hesitate some when tiping, it's just habit. To get the best results is to try to tap the keys as fast as you can, and let Fleksy do it's work and guess the word. Of corse it's first guess may not be right, but once you get the speed down and flicking through the suggested words, I think you'll start to notice the apps potintial. Hope this helps.
