Keyboard Typing Accuracy Issue iOS 26

And there are hundreds of millions of us who are not.

There were some very minor changes in the size of the keypads. But even minor changes could, for some people, interfere with their typing. The only thing you can really do is get used to it. Or find a third-party keyboard you like better.

Please remember, this is a user-to-user forum. We are all volunteers. And we are doing our best already. If you don't like an answer and can't bring yourself to say thank you, it is perhaps best to say nothing.

If you want to make Apple aware of your concerns, you can do so here:

Product Feedback - Apple

It's not always the iOS update's fault!  Many things can cause phone problems.  If you tell people you think it's an iOS update, it might make it harder to fix or find a solution for the real issue.

Remember, the right question often leads to the solution!

Was/Is your device Jailbroken? If that's the situation, please be informed that attributing the issues to iOS updates may not be accurate.

iOS updates aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. The majority of the issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.

Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors. This could be a pure coincidence that the iOS update affected the iPhone functions.

Before initiating a standard iOS update, it's advisable to create a backup. Have you completed this step? If yes, proceed with the restoration from the backup.

My apologies, didn’t realize you’re just volunteers…so you have no affiliation with Apple whatsoever? Curious as to how this works. So I should have said “Do better, Apple!” Have you googled this issue? It’s millions of people, not a few people that have to get used to something. A more appropriate response might have been, we’re all aware of the changes but Apple has not released a fix at this time. Lack of acknowledgement of the root of the problem and leading someone on goose chase resolutions damages Apple’s credibility, whether you (and/or the original person who replied) “work” for them or not. I also presumed my reply would go to that person just for the record. Enjoy your day.

Yes, we are all volunteers, users just like you.

No, because Apple doesn't read here other than to make sure we all adhere to the Terms of Use.

Have you googled this issue? It’s millions of people, not a few people that have to get used to something.

I've also googled "alien abductions" and found that, apparently, hundreds of thousands of people have been abducted. Also, the earth is flat and/or only 3000 years old.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion. However, no one here is required to do what you think is "appropriate." The only thing we are required to do is follow the Terms of Use. If I could make people be polite here merely by telling them to do so, it would be great, though.

Apple's credibility is not my problem or concern. Nor is it SravanKrA's. If you think it's an issue, you should tell Apple using the link I provided.

I also presumed my reply would go to that person just for the record. Enjoy your day.
