Worst thing about iOS keyboard is that it corrects the last word when hitting send before even showing what it would change.

When i hit send, i want to send the message that is on my screen, not the message iOS thinks i meant to send.

(And that you cant just click into the middle of a word to edit one letter)

I use android (samsung flagship) and have been struggling with accurate typing in recent months

I havent found a root cause yet, tentatively chalked it up to advancing age.

I may have inadvertently selected a different keyboard (Samsung vs Google ) or wrong layout/settings when switching to newer phone.

while I definitely agree the autocorrect has gotten worse, what I find more of a problem is all the various other pop-ups that occur. For example, they recently added the ability to 'undo' an autocorrect, but this pop up grabs focus, and you can't click on text near this pop up, because the pop up will claim the click.

I've also had trouble getting rid of pop up menus (copy, etc). If I want to click on text, but it has decided to pop up a menu, it can be a real pain to get rid of it. (I had no problem on previous versions of IOS).

There's a fundamental law of features: Every feature you add may may make it better for people who use it, but it makes it worse for everyone else.

If you keep adding features, anything will eventually become unusable.

Although I do not use it myself, I had seen that some other people do, and that apparently you cannot disable autocorrect while still having prediction enabled (at least, that is what they told me); I think it might be useful to enable prediction without autocorrect.

My theory is that the keyboard team is composed of sadists that enjoy making us all ducking suffer.

There's another issue that's much more infuriating IMO:

- You're in the middle of writing a sentence.

- The phone is trying to guess how that sentence will eventually be constructed.

- It goes back 3 words and changes one to match its guess.

- Its guess is @)%(*%@ WRONG

My son has an Apple Watch SE 3 and it doesn't feature the keyboard and you literally cannot type a lower case 'n'. The only hack was putting in a space and then it will sometimes do an n (or multiple characters). It's bonkers bad.

I have found myself doing a lot more voice typing lately.

My biggest gripe is that when I say "want to" it replaces it with "wanna" unless I specifically enunciate "want to".

"Wanna" is NOT a word in english but there is no way to exclude it.

Frustrating.

Swiftkey on Android does this also and it's a very nice feature. I sometimes see a key lighting up that I didn't mean to press. I was just barely on that key, and it figured out that I didn't mean to press it

Not sure how it works. Maybe it looks at touch surface area movements during the couple milliseconds that I'm pressing down for? Or dynamically adjusts hitboxes as this video says iOS does? Whatever the method, it works very well after like fifteen years of training (I copy the data folder between devices and never update it or let it access the internet, so I'm sure it's just me training it and not anything else, nor incompatible versions ever throwing data away)

Note that this is different from the context-based autocorrect since that only triggers on spacebar or suggestion selection

Maybe it’s just me, but it’s not just typing - I’ve found that after I type a message in iMessage, it takes SEVERAL pressed to acknowledge a send?!

I don’t know wtf it thinks I’m doing because it doesn’t do any other action.
