It's not too weird... If it offers up "dallas" for "dal", but the user keeps typing, then it's reasonable to assume "dallas" wasn't what they were looking for,

It's not too weird...
If it offers up "dallas" for "dal", but the user keeps typing, then it's reasonable to assume "dallas" wasn't what they were looking for, or they'd have picked it after "dal".
- szundi 3y agoI hate these autocompleters with this logic. Counterintuitive and let me not type with 1/sec just to be “helped” correctly
- ComputerGuru 3y agoOr maybe they type quickly and don’t stop after each and every letter to see the autocomplete results?
- dylan604 3y agoExactly. I'm not typing D...pause...A...pause...L wait for suggested value. I'm typing dall by the time the first suggestion has had a chance to make its appearance. Then again, I'm on a real computer with a keyboard, and not some mobile device where it's impossible to type properly and forces those pauses between letters where the autocomplete might be noticeable.
- ComputerGuru 3y agoI am in the same boat but experience this on mobile, too. They just slow everything down by the same factor.
