iMessage Typing Lag

That doesn't make any sense. I just bought an SE and this problem still persists. This may have been prevalent in the past but this is not a justification for this new bug. It exists on new phones, and it is simply a bug that really needs to be addressed by apple.

I’m having the same issue since updating to iOS 14 on an Xs Max. I’ve gotten in the habit to just start typing and spellcheck myself before sending. It is frustrating though because I worry that it won’t recognize a letter then I spend unnecessary time fixing rather than sending a message normally.

Same here. Still have the lag, ever since upgrading to iOS 14. They need to develop a bug fix for this. My phone is the iPhone X shouldn't be lagging with such a new phone. Please provide a fix in the next version. Thanks.

Update: I have now taken one suggestion from here (reset dictionary) and one suggestion from Apple support (disable predictive text). Both of these seemed to work for about 4 to 6 days before the phone started to do it again. So it is still happening and the two fixes have not worked.

Exp same issue. After iOS 14 update I’m now notified that iMessage recipient is typing (...) from ‘Messages’ (that show all conv’s) rather in the past when I was only notified when I actually in a single conv.

My vote is to ditch the new feature and gimmie back no lagzzzz thx

I’m experiencing this too - 15th Nov 2020 now as well with latest available iOS installed - I was starting to get a little paranoid that some spyware was installed - the issue is quite strange how it presents....

Very odd that this is marked as resolved too - it’s clearly not - regardless of my above paranoia.

I have a recently replaced iPhone XS Max 256 btw (an iP12 is en route).

exactly the same, I recently bought iPhone 11, its currently running on iOS 14.1., first is the iMessage lag issue, its surely very prominent and not just iMessage, sometimes I can feel a little lag on WhatsApp & Instagram messaging as well. Is anyone else experiencing this lag in the messaging in general ?

second, just wanted a quick advise if I should update it to iOS 14.2? will that resolve this issue?

please suggest.

EXACTLY. SO TIRED OF THEIR GAMES. They got caught and now they are back to their old tricks. I really don’t want to update my phone again. Every time worse and worse. Can we refuse to update? They push it so hard.

you dont "own" your phone even though you paid for it.

your probably locked into it also because of data kept in cloud or on phone too.

cloud is alot of storage capability these days to just download if youvdont store local on your computer in a separate file.

i am absolutely certain though that android has its own issues to, like being more vulnerable to virus/malware etc . you pay for the convienences of apple and the alledgedly more secure platform at a cost.

as you xan prob tell i hsve alot of typos, i wrnt to settings under keyboard and disabled just about every add on feature, kinda sucks but j think speed increased.

it is what it is. phones are essential this day and age as is internet, especially now. forced upgrades are a thing, so no, probably cant not upgrade , actually i think things will run worse eventually until you do upgrade. the world is ran by major corps like apple and MS, google. etc.

there is slways linux based operating systems in computers but those have thier issues too, he who writes the code for the back door in the kernal rules the world as well as he who engineeers the lithography backdoors etched in the chips tgat run the code, intel, amd etc..

basicalky gotta pay to play. sucks i know, pick your "poison.. apple " lol

jyst figure you will be buying a new spple every 2-3 years.

you can try adjusting diffferent settibgs too or get a battery installed by a spple genius bar - batteries are hard embedded with serial codes now tgat generate errors if done by anyone else.

the battery was apparently the issue in prior phones, like$60.

working in automotive industry , this type of thing is obvios, you see same failure time and time again, common parts on dhelf in stock.

try the new battery or keyboard setting, i was going too have battery done at apple so embedded hardware coding doesnt phuck phone up or i dont lol.

maybe reset phone , operating systems do corrupt, look at wi dows machines , theyveven have a name for it in IT, think its called "patch tuesday" ?

i fix windiws at cmd line promp with admin priv with : sfc /scannow

it finds and fixes errors all the time.

problem is, this type of behavior is everywhere and is easily dismissable by companies because coukd be something else but there really is nothing you csn do if embrdded code tells your os to slowly start bugging out to make you get a new one eventually, because yotr life is on your current phone so hard to migrate platforms with all yoyr passwirds and puctures and apps etc, so you get a new one after finally succuming snd you know what, your probably happy again until about a year later when you see the pattern repeat, and your like, im just not going to update, but your phone gets buggier, so you update hoping to fix some issues and you get new features too, so you just keep playing this psychokogical game until you give in snd get the newest iphone which is promptly outdated a month later with a new iphone tgat just came out lol!!

lol

iPhucked! lol

just plan on saving for one snd trade in when price is high. idk. try the battery and genius bar?

i do know car compsnies dknt nessesariky nake moneyvselling cars, they make it on the parts snd service..

but then, thibgs are ysing the throw away model mentality , you csnt hardly fix this stuff any more cause of cost. cheeper to buy new sometimes.

i have no idea either but this not having autobcorrect suchs even thiugh i curse at auto correct every day for wtong words.

trade in?

goid luck man!

It’s still happening on latest update, now also in different guises...

As well as the text msg lag coming back, Screenshots take an age to process, can’t always send the screenshot when it does show up at the bottom as the send button lags also

I’ve had apple since the 3GS and if this doesn’t get fixed this 12 pro will be the last iPhone I own

Resolved you say? You must be an Apple employee. Glad you’re not experiencing the issue anymore. But deleting old messages and restarting a device isn’t the groundbreaking troubleshooting analysis/update patch the rest of us are pushing for. Unless that is if no one else tried a restart besides you ;)

I agree. paid alot for these phones to have some dumb crap like this suddenly outdate my phone, then to be patronized by a corporate employee whos sole job is to publish lies to betray even further telling us essentially we are crazy, its all in our heads, no? anyone else agree? who here despises fake reviews and coverups? funny how the cycle continues after about a year when your brand new phone stsrts acting up all the sudden right after the warrantee expires. time bomb programming called updates?

Its one post on a forum with millions of posts. I doubt my reply was some Apple conspiracy to gain your acceptance to an issue than a select few are experiencing. Rather just something that worked for me. Turn off Fox News for a second and think for yourself.

This post is blowing up, but people need to calm down with the corporate conspiracy BS, it's a glitch, error, fault. We should keep commenting so they fix it, but we all know its not intentional since it is on a range of devices (new and old) and iMessage is a core part of their sales strategy and often the reason we got the phones. calm down people, take off the tinfoil hats.

11-22-2020 and it’s still doing it. iPhone 11 Pro, a few months old. When starting to type a text message there is like a 1.5 second delay from when you start typing to when those 3-4 letters actually appear on the screen.
