Slow keyboard typing after iOS 26 update on iPhone

If you go to Settings > Accessibility > Keyboards and Typing > Slow Keys > Make sure it's turned off.

Then try a Forced Restart, which is different from a soft restart done with the Power Off slider.

• Press and quickly release the Volume Up Button
• Press and quickly release the Volume Down Button
• Press and hold the Side Button until you see the Apple Logo

This was driving me nuts and I turned off the “Key Repeat” in accessibility > keyboard. Which fixed it. It was slowing down my typing so much. I’d rather make the occasional typo than type one letter per second. I have the iPhone 13.

Go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Keyboard Dictionary.

That solved it for me.

if you have haptics enabled, when this problem occurs again, try putting the phone in silent mode and see if you notice an improvement. I have the same inout lag that only occurs in browsers and for some reason, turning silent mode on fixes the haptics and keyboard response.

Me too. After I updated my iOs to the iOS 26 I kept on having issues and delayed typing. I need to double tap send button before it went through. I need to retype my sentences and it’s not a good experience.

I’m having similar issues and the force restart did not resolve this for me

I tried doing this twice and it didn’t do anything. Went back to keyboard and things. Same everything?

It’s literally not usa le to me, I need to write extremely slow on an iPhone 16 pro…

is it my impression or Apple is really becoming bad??

Same for me ive done all i can do too and its just fail in apples end. Truly hope they send a bug fix. I cant type this slow. “ Si frustrati g “ see!
