Is this how most people type on mobile these days, drawing lines all over a keyboard instead of tapping the individual keys? I’ve never had an iPhone so I don’t even know if they can do this natively, but I know you can switch keyboards at least, so it should still be an option if not.
i never do. im quite an old school mobile typer in general - i dont use any autocorrect features, barely use autocomplete word suggestions… i type with two fingers which are my left index finger and right thumb. call me crazy, but it works wonders for me, and whenever i display my mobile typing speed people are amazed. can definitely recommend trying to type without any assistance for a while because it can ultimately lead to some very strong results :3
I’ve never tried it before but wow… It’s kinda interesting…
May play with it more now but it doesn’t really feel faster to me.
It’s an option on iOS. I use the FUCK out of it on every device that I have, even on tablets (though only in portrait mode, and with a reduced keyboard.) Yeah sometimes we mis-swipe, and some words (like “mis-swipe!”) are not going to be recognized. But you type the weird words, swipe the rest, and then fix any mistakes by tapping on the word suggestions as you go. Besides, it’s not like you shouldn’t read it over once when you’re done. People like to blame autocorrect for their mistakes but fr what the heck happened to editing your shit??
So yes, I use swipe, and it’s objectively more efficient so everyone should!
Swiping can be useful if I have fake nails on but largely I just individually tap with my thumbs
I use it when I only have 1 free hand 😶🌫️
This is the first time I try this. This is a lot of fun!
I have for years wouldn’t go back
It’s really cool for typing one-handed.
I tried it several times and couldn’t get the hang of it. I’d always overshoot the character I was going for. I had a colleague who was amazingly fast with swiping to type.
iPhones can natively do swipe to text and I love the feature. It also seems to have improved accuracy as a result of the iOS 17 keyboard updates. I always find myself mixing swipe to text and regular typing together. I hardly even think about it really.
I use it all the time, but I’ve recently got a new phone and it’s taking a while for the autocorrect to get used to my swiping, so it has a fair few mistakes currently
Years, it’s then oily way I tyre on phoney any Moore.
Jokes, but it really is almost the only way I type on my phone anymore.
That’s how most my messages look before I fix them when I type normal.
No I don’t use it, never liked it
It’s really the only way I type on a phone or iPad
Is it a native feature now or do you need to use a different keyboard for it?
It has been native for a short while now!
I use it, and combining it with autocorrect and suggestions I find it really easy and fast to use.
