I have minor coordination issues and can't type accurately on a keyboard as small as my phone. If I manually corrected every typo it'd take me 3 times as long to type anything. I miss the suggested words with my thumb half the time. I find it easier to just slam out a word looking vaguely similar to what I was trying to type and let my phone figure it out.

I wish they would bring back flip phones that had physical keyboards. Touch screens are fucking garbage and always will be along with the fuck bags that thought making all phones with touch screens was a high IQ play.

On iOS? Yes, it's gotten to the point it's almost unusable. Supposedly, iOS 17 is going to address this but I've not tried the beta to confirm.

No change here, but Iโ€™m using an iPhone.

I just sent a friend this very question. Tusks for the good suggestions! Moved to Open board + swipe and it sends great.

I've been using Swype & Dragon since 2011 and it's been consistently great, even though unfortunately officially discontinued.
