  I can’t get my head round it.

    It seems to work terribly on iphones, even with Google’s keyboard. (Source: one single iphone which was entirely uncooperative.)

      Try going a little slower. That always makes it more accurate for me.

        I use the Google keyboard at speed and it works great, while the iphone used in the same manner was completely impossible. Even the Google keyboard installed on the iphone was awful.

        I’ll try your tip and go slower. Maybe that will make a difference.

    Start with swiping not too fast and keep track on prediction bar, you often don’t have to swipe the whole word. You can take breaks mid-swipe, no problem.

  I’ve always swiped but somehow just install voice to text. Game changer!

    I’m in too many places where chatting to my phone wouldn’t go over well.

      Ah that makes perfect sense. I’m alone for much of my day.
