Since updating to iOS 10, I've found that when using safari the keyboard doesn't switch back to text when putting a comma in. It works fine in other apps messages, notes, emails etc. The stranger thing is that if I pick a number and press space it says on that view, but if I pick a number then comma it does switch back to letters. Does anyone else have this problem or managed to fix it? I think it's a bug and have reported it.
iPhone 6, iOS 10
Solved problem permanently by logging out of iCloud and then logging in again. Seems to fix some "." File problems with iCloud.... seems to solve many weird problems with icloud and made my phones much more responsive.
I Have this issue and another issue involving the screen not fallowing the cursor as I am typing. I've upgraded 4 iPhones (2 iPhone 7 and 2 iPhone 6s') and the probl are present on all devices. It's getting to be a near deal breaker for Apple for me. I want to love my iPhone, but this issue isn't even registered with Apple techs. When I went to the Genius Bar yesterday they basically told me that I will need to reset my phone as a new iPhone and see if that works. I tried that will all my iPhones and the problem persists.
Apples answer to everything is to reset the phone. For the price they charge they should work properly
Seems so. What a disappointment. I've got a few days to kkeep using this thing or jump ship back to android. I kinda want that One Plus 3 phone. iOS is starting to become a chore to use.
Similar issue for iPads in iOS 10:
ios 10 safari screen not scrolling when typing text
Screen doesn't auto-scroll while typing, many instances of the keyboard not automatically going back to alpha mode after special characters or other situations.
IT was interesting because I contacted Apple support about this and was told that Apple has never had these features i.e. the screen fallowing the cursor while typing and the alpha keyboard switching back after you hit the space bar. I then was transferred to a supervisor that confirmed that these are in deed features. I finally took my iPhone to a Genius Bar and was told to reset it. Which I have, multiple times.
I'm experiencing the same issue. I did not have this problem with iOS 9. Even while typing this message on this board, the freakin screen isn't following my text as I type and after inserting a comma, I have to manually go back to text to continue typing. It wasn't like this before.
It always baffles my mind how these idiotic glitches are missed during testing of the new iOS. what the **** do they do there all day?!?! Aren't they suppose to be testing each and every part of the system to make sure it's working properly?!?! I mean, its September 2016 and I have to pause typing and move the screen over to continue seeing what in the **** im writing. Lol. Unbelievable. And all of this is coming from a loyal Apple user since iPhone 4.
Alet needs to fix this ASAP, freakin yesterday. This is pathetic and imbarassing.
UUnfortunately, I have a feeling this issue will never be fixed or if it is, it will take a very long time. The problem is, there is a very small min of us having this issue.
Thats idiotic. The rest of the iPhone community probably haven't gotten on safari and haven't tried typing something beyond the typical "LOL" three letter replies to facebook. Once people start using the phone more, I'm sure more will notice this MAJOR issue and more reports will start coming in.
I Just tried several different sites. Same issues with the screen not following the text and the keyboard not going back to letters after inserting a comma. This is unacceptable for a $850 phone with the latest and greatest operating system. Apple is seriously slacking and it's unacceptable. They are too concerned with selling headphone adaptors to fully test the iOS before releasing it to the general public. Unbelievable. How do I got back to iOS 9??? At least it functioned properly while using the iPhone to do SIMPLE tasks like writing out this message and inserting a comma.
YYea I just ran into another wonderful bug. So I'm typing on my Hyundai forum and reached the bottom of the screen. The cursor continues on to type but the only way I can see what I'm typing is to pull the screen up and it acts like a rubber band and bounces back into place once I lift my finger. There's no way to actually keep the screen in place while typing. I've enabled screen rotaition but it doesn't work. Also, auto correct is not working either. If I misspell a word, the correct word pops up on the top of the keyboard but if I tap it, there's no guarantee it will replace the word.
THis is very annoying and makes me wish I hadn't upgraded. The thing is, it only hapens on the browsers. The keyboard goes back to the alphabet after punctuation fine in Notes, texting, etc. But the problem exists in Safari and Chrome, so it seems to have something to do with tha, or maybe Safari/Chrome have to update something? In any case, please fix this, someone! I type a lot via Safari on my phone.
AAnd what's infuriating is if you go to Reddit, people downplay the issue and defend apple for a very flawed OS. I'm curious to know if this still happens on other browsers like Dolphin. I'll try it out tomorrow. I'm just afraid we will be stuck with this problem for a very long time. I'm bummed out thinking about it because while it's not a crippling issue, it is an annoyance that hinders what should be a fun experience Making me nearly want to rethink my choice in phones.
I just downloaded Dolphin and tried it... It works correctly! That's my new browser.
I also tried Firefox and no go. So Firefox, Chrome and Safari all have this problem. Get on it, Apple!
I suppose this was known, but it works fine on my iPad. So an iPhone only issue, apparently.
Oh sweet! Thanks for the tip on that. Just got Dolphin too and am enjoying the bonus features that Apple left out of Chrome and Safari. It's too bad because I've always like Chrome over all the other browsers. Oh well, it works so I guess I should be happy now.
Everyone who has this is issue, please report this to Apple here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
The more people report it, the bigger the chance that a fix will be made. Hoping on a fix in the next release just doesn't cut it .
Thank you.
