Dyslexics and Phonetic Typing People with mild dyslexia, or even just bad spellers, can benefit from Instant Text in a unique way: Phonetic Typing.
Take, for example, maneuver You can sound it out ma... neu... ver... Then type it phonetically, mnv and you will get the right word! You could also get this word by typing mnr or mvr or mnvr Sound it out, then just type what you hear!
You have several choices of syllables. You can get the same word by trg or tgy or try or any other combination. You just need the first letter, and keep the syllables in the right order. Another way Instant Text speeds typing of dyslexics and bad spellers is by giving correctly spelled choices. Often, people with mild dyslexia are slow typists for a very good reason that has nothing to do with their typing ability: They must stop and analyze the spelling of each word before typing it. Even very good typists slow down occasionally to analyze a specific word or two. With Instant Text, just type what you think, and when you recognize the correct spelling, just expand it and keep going.
