Comment on Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time?

I don’t know about you, but I just swiped my way through the first sentence off this reply with Google’s keyboard and all I had to do was select swiped instead of the suggested settled.

They do remember common words that you use, so if you have accidentally “approved” a few misspellings they’ll be suggested/given to you more often so a drastic solution to that is to clear your personalised data from the keyboard.

Did you mean to type “off this reply”?

Sometimes your own peril… I keep getting my exes name randomly when I’m swiping for another word 🤦‍♂️

  You can always hold and remove any suggestion, be it a typo or an ex’s name.

I don’t seem to have an issue with swiping on my keyboard either except for names and abbreviations/capitalisations but then all phone keyboards struggle with that except for T9 and blackberries. I think it’s a small price to pay for such fast and effortlessly swiping for 99.9% of the time.
