I actually shapewrite, but it do the same when I swype. I dont like using my index finger cause my hand seems to get in the way. I guess I'm all thumbs

 

[Kevkelsar]

Depends on the situation, I use my thumb when holding it with one hand, but my index when holding the phone with both hands.

Always with my left hand. I am eating with the right one.

Using the thumb of the same hand with which I am holding the phone

most of the time i

Using the thumb of the same hand you hold the phone

sometimes/for more complex or extended writing i

Holding the phone with one hand and swyping with the other index finger

I have not had to use just my thumb of the hand I am holding the phone with. So I hold with one hand and use the index finger of the other.

Niether.

I hold the phone with one foot while I swype with the other's big toe...

I do the thumb/same hand thing usually, but there's a fair amount of time where I have the phone in my left hand and use my right thumb to Swype, with my right index finger laid across the back of the phone for added support.

I use the thumb of the hand I am holding the phone with. It gets really irritating when my hands are slightly sweaty and my thumb won't glide across the screen. Swype is pretty much useless when this happens.

Mostly 2&3
Hopefully I can get swype beta working.

i use the thumb on the hand i am holding the phone because if i wanted to use 2 hands i would just use the sense keyboard... the only time i prefer one or the other is if i am using 1 or 2 hands

1hand=swype
2hands=sense

unless it is on one or the other and i don't feel like changing it to suit a specific situation

Currently, I swype with ShapeWriter. Finally got the official beta for Swype (e-mail came today), but it doesn't work.

That's strange. I just signed up today and got the email about a minute later and it works just fine.

What do you think is the fastest method for swyping?

Mine says it is for a different phone. Haven't had time to troubleshoot. I might just stick with SW anyway. Don't want some beta that will keep expiring on me.

Thumb too big, must use index finger.

Thumb too clumsy, gotta use opposing index. I've tried a few times to one-hand it, but somehow just can't get it right.

Update. UnInstalled, restarted phone and downloaded again from the link in my email. It's working fine.
