I can't comment knowledgeably. I just regularly have to try over and over again to get it to produce the word I want, and my memory is that this happened rarely on Android.
Wait! I do have a specific criticism!
There are certain two-word sequences it will not produce ("kill myself", "white women") and I could do without that little bit of editorial oversight thank you very much.

- phoghed 18d agoSwipe keyboard has given up and let’s me type fuck now
- quasarj 18d agoYep, there's a whole set of censored phrases. Kill won't let you type a lot of things after it, including "him" and "her" (well, I haven't tested on iOS 27 yet). I haven't tried the white woman one though, that is cracking me up. update: Okay I tried and sure enough, I'm laughing even harder now. The closest I could get it to swipe was "womanhood". Lots of Wohan's though.
- jrflowers 18d agoCan confirm that you can’t swipe type “white women” on iOS 27 lmao
- neutronicus 17d agoI may be mistaken but I'm pretty sure it's been the case since at least 2022 when I switched from Android
- phoghed 18d agoWho’re women Blank women Chinese women Indian women Jewish women Black men love Chinese women Black woken live Ellie men Kill your Kill mussels Lmao I never noticed this. I wonder if this is just risk aversion, since they don’t care if I type “white women make me want to kill myself” normally and even autocorrect half the sentence.
