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.

Gboard is available on iOS isn’t it? I found it on the App Store at least.
You can only basically change the skin on an iphone keyboard. Downloading another keyboard still uses the apple keyboard under the hood. That’s why all Apple keyboards are such trash compared to Android.
Same with your browser. You can download a new browser, but it’s still Safari.

You… Went to Apple to avoid Google? Seriously? Like Apple is somehow not as bad as Google?

That makes sense. I know it’s probably not much better since it’s Microsoft, but what about Swiftkey? It always seemed to be more accurate than Gboard, for me at least.

I have an iphone for work and I hate typing on that POS keyboard. Can’t even change it because Apple.
You should be able to change it now, there are other keyboards on the app store at least.
I didn’t even realize there were options, usually it’s Apple’s way or the highway.
iOS keyboard is pretty good in iOS 17. The iPhone’s keyboard on iOS 17 leverages a transformer model, which OpenAI (the company behind ChatGPT) uses in their own language models, to learn from what you type on your keyboard to better predict what you might say next, whether it’s a name, phrase or curse word.
