I use it almost exclusively/when it makes sense to. But so many people are surprised that I use it.
Part of it is because I was an android user until about 2015 and that was always a feature on the phones I had. I also use it because I have small hands and the biggest iPhone so I find it easier to type one-handed sometimes.

I use it always, even to comment here. But some times it predicts wrong and i have to go back and change it.
Just switched to iPhone after 12 years on Android. I love swipe typing but on iOS it’s complete garbage. I NEVER gets what I want and just randomly stops whenever it feels like it
Speaking of typing, the new iPhone typing update has been horrible for me at least who uses an older iPhone. I mean I have an iPhone 11 Pro Max but only 12 and above get the better predictive text I think. Seems like now the predictive text is way worse. It always auto corrects to something that doesn’t make sense and does it too often. They added the thing where it underlines an autocorrected word so you can easily revert it but it’s just annoying to have to revert it.
Yes I do but it’s definitely not as good as gboard or swiftkey
It’s bad with the keyboard lag. First word never registers unless I give it two seconds.
I have never noticed that and I almost only use swipe type. Literally used it to type this reply and noticed no lag
Yes, I get this sometimes. Definitely a problem.
Absolutely. Far quicker and more accurate. Typed this out with gloves on just now.
Although, I’m not convinced ios 17 is an improvement.
I almost exclusively use swipe type. Is so much faster. After you get use to it rarely make mistakes unless I pause mid swipe
yes bc i had an android before i got an iphone and used it ALLLL the time, i was so excited when apple finally added it.
i use it most when i have one hand to type because my 13 PM is huge
almost exclusively - but proofreading for typos is essential. i learned my lesson when i typed and quickly sent “here”, as in “we’re still here”, to my mother. turned out to be “we’re still heterosexual”
I physically have to with my iPhone 15 Pro right now because manually typing as quickly as I do causes every 3-5 characters to not be registered.
And yes, I swipe type faster than most people type, but it took awhile to get to this point.
yes when im too lazy to type everything
Honestly no, I’m not a huge fan of sliding my thumb all over the screen and typing with one hand is about as fast. Didn’t use it much when I was in Android phones back in the day either.
I use swipe text exclusively. I even downloaded Gboard keyboards before it was a function natively on iphones.
All the time.
Yes. I feel it’s faster.
