Summary

To type accents, simply hold the corresponding key on your keyboard. For example, to type è, hold the "E" key on your keyboard until you reach è. Simple!

does not work. its description literally reads: "To type an accent, hold down the physical key on your keyboard (for example, the E key to type é). Type as you would normally, just hold down the accents longer than normal." which of course just yields "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" also does not have a setting to choose the language like it states.
