| I mean, their damn phone keyboards are so bad I'm 100% confident that Tim only does voice to text on his phone. There's no way that the CEO of a company could use a keyboard that horrible and not want to fix it. |

| It’s SO bad. It makes me not want to use my phone anymore and physically go get my laptop if I’m chatting/messaging someone. It’s probably the worst typing experience I’ve had since resistive-touch screens on PDAs. At least with them you could still type what you intended to though, just slowly. |

| If Tim used speech to text we’d be at least testing SotA local voice models in the iOS betas |

| In my experience iOS 26.4 did largely fix it btw. Update if you haven’t already. |

| Most of my issues were fixed when I disabled swipe to type. Not all, but most. |

| ▲ | ryanmcbride 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | I've heard this advice before and I've tried it, and I really didn't notice a difference. I also, unfortunately, use swipe to type a lot. If I'm typing one handed I'm pretty much always using swipe. Sure it barely works, but that's the same as if I was typing normally so feels like a wash. | | |
| ▲ | u_fucking_dork an hour ago | parent [-] | | Keyboard works fine. Always has. iPhone just has so many users that there's going to be a plethora of passionate unpleasable nerds for every single facet of it. Even in your ideal virtual keyboard version, there was an army of people complaining that it wasn't a hardware keyboard. | | |
