Hey everyone I just thought it would be funny to share a tiny portion of my text replacement list.

This is probably news to no one here but the iOS keyboard is an absolute nightmare to type on. What is strange is that when I first got the phone it was actually alright but now it feels like it gets worse day by day. I'm constantly adding new words to the list. I'm actually using text replacement as a reliable auto correct.

I disabled everything on the keyboard essentially:

It genuinely feels like the touch detection on the keyboard is off sometimes or when I type too fast without smashing the screen with my thumbs it will skip/not detect my input.

Am I the only one doing this?

Edit: please disregard "search" replacement I messed up that one.

I’ve decided to switch to iPhone a year ago and the swipe typing experience has been great. The tap typing however is absolutely terrible. I can’t write a sentence without a typo and I swear I’ve pressed the right keys.

And this is an issue because in my native language the iOS keyboard does not support swipe typing which I’m absolutely flabbergasted by because I’ve never had a phone that does not support Slovak for swiping and I’m counting NOKIA Lumia 920 with Windowsphone 8 as my first smartphone.
