There are more and more comments on this one, apple probably won't monitor this as an issue expect enough people actually report the issue through: Feedback - iPhone - Apple

There you can actually report and if the keyboard issue appears often enough, hopefully apple will fix it's software.

This isn't true.

Please read the comments before posting wrong answers. This will confuse people that got this problem and stumble across this site.

As stated many times before resetting the dictionary does not solve the issue. You will loose all your saved words. Then for a limited time the issue won't occur, but soon after you will experience the same again. Tested by many users here just to loose their saved words.

Also restarting, disabling other language or disabling the spell checking doesn't solve the issue since you are disabling functionality instead of solving the bug.

It is a bug in iOS and not a wrong setting, it happens since iOS 17 with the implementation of the new predictive text function. Apple messed something up there.

To really get someone from apple fixing the problem you got to report it here: Feedback - iPhone - Apple

Probably Apple won't even monitor this page.

It’s almost one month and you still didn’t fix this issue, even after the short update for this issue. I hope you will fix it asap as people are paying 1300$+ for these phones :).

You seem to be under the impression you are addressing Apple here? You're not. This is strictly a user to user only forum, which Apple doesn't actively participate in. If you want Apple to know you're having an issue, you can let them know using this link as they don't read here for user feedback --> Feedback - iPhone - Apple

Hi IVVladimir,

Thanks for posting. As we understand it, you're running into some iPhone performance issues specific to the keyboard. We'd like to help out.

To clarify one point, when you say you cleared the keyboard cache, are you referring to the "Reset Keyboard Settings" function?

Also, so we can narrow this down, are you finding this happens in a specific app, or all apps? If you haven't yet, you could test a few different apps like Messages, Mail, Notes or Pages.

If all apps are affected, this link has good general steps that could help If your iPhone or iPad is running slow.

Cheers.

When are they going to fix this issue? Mine is progressively getting worse and my phone is almost unusable. Is super annoying

Did they said it was a hardware issue?

For me it started to happen just right after I updated to iOS 17, iOS 16 was working perfectly

I reckon you guys added designed obsolescence into iOS 16 but forgot to disable it in iOS 17 eh?

Brand new iPhone 15 pro. Exactly the same issue when typing quickly. Phone sometimes takes a second or 2 to catch up with what I am typing

I turned off “Check spelling” under keyboard settings and it works fine. Not sure what that setting does because it seems to still check spelling.

Let's be clear here. Disabling spell check is not a fix, its a work around. I want my spell check and I want my keyboard to stop spazzing out.

The Magic keyboard w/my Ipad pro is a nightmare after the iOS 17. It's poorly responsive (begin a paragraph, and the spacebar must be HIT twice after the first word; and no Apple, this blue whateveritis is neither charming nor functional. Access to emojis is gone.

there is no option to reset keyboard on the iphone

17.2.1 and the lag issue is still here… C’mon Apple you can do it better! Its surrealistic to have a 1500€ phone and being incapable to do the basic easily
