This works best on smaller grids - and 1-row grids work the best. You can select cell by a dwell time, or by left blinking (hold your eye closed until the action is started). You can "go back" using a right blink (hold your right eye closed until you go back). 2) You can use blinking as a switch - switch 1 = left eye, switch 2 = right eye. Keep your eye closed until the action starts. 3) Screen as a Switch. Tap the grid once = switch 1, tap the grid with 2 fingers = switch 2. This is a simple way to address some people's physical disabilities without purchasing as switch. * You can now copy files directly from the device to your PC or Mac using iTunes file sharing. * Undo/Redo will now work across sessions.

Features that rely on a long-press will not work when using this mode. *Phrase Bar - more natural voicing (eliminates the pause between TTS voiced cells). * Phrase bar history now has "Favorites" feature. Tap the arrow to the left of the phrase bar on an iPad, or double-tap the phrase bar. It will show the phrase bar history.
