autocorrect and the swipe keyboard on ios has gotten progressively worse with each release, to the degree that i've reverted to typing with my thumbs because it's faster. additional languages seems like a bridge too far right now
- OkGoDoIt 3y agoThey claim this new version has a fancy transformer-based text production model. Assuming that same engine powers swipe prediction, we might finally see an improvement here. Here’s to hoping. Voice dictation has also gotten worse over the past couple of years, I’m very excited that they claim they’ve got a new transformer-based architecture that works a lot better now. These two features alone might dramatically improve my quality of life using iOS. Android from a decade ago was better at text entry than iOS is currently.
- D13Fd 3y agoThis is so weird to me. I use both every day and they seem totally fine. It even picked up my child’s unique nickname (even though spellcheck still flags it)
- deepspace 3y agoI would be happy if the stupid thing stopped capitalizing every occurrence of "and", and stopped replacing "is" with "I'd". Those two alone turn swype-typing from a convenience into a frustrating slog.
