going in to an ap?
Thanks for all your help

Susan,
I would recommend that you use standard typing mode until you get used to
touching the screen. There are two modes Standard and touch.
Standard typing: Select a key on the keyboard by swiping left or right, then
double-tap to enter the character. Or move your finger around the keyboard to
select a key and, while continuing to touch the key with one finger, tap the
screen with another finger. VoiceOver speaks the key when it’s selected, and
again when the character is entered.
◦
Touch typing: Touch a key on the keyboard to select it, then lift your
finger to enter the character. If you touch the wrong key, slide your finger
to the key you want. VoiceOver speaks the character for each key as you touch
it, but doesn’t enter a character until you lift your finger.
◦
Choose standard or touch typing: With VoiceOver turned on and a key selected
on the keyboard, use the rotor to select Typing Mode, then swipe up or down.

These notes explain the two types. I think you are using touch typing and
that is very tricky until you are used to the whole touch process.
