This keyboard is killing me

[heatdissipation]

I am an iPhone convert, I am trying to get used to this phone, I really want to live it, but my biggest problem so far is this keyboard. My fingers are not that fat. But I can't type without having to erase and retype 4 or 5 times even in a short text message. It's almost bad enough to go back to my old 6 plus. Am I doing something wrong.

Yes you are. You're not downloading G Board or SwiftKey

Swiftkey or Gboard is what you need. the best 2 keyboard on android.

Gboard swift key also the SPen , give it time it's frustrating to change from IOS but your going to be super happy you did

 

[Ca_lvn]

You can also a just the size of your keyboard

I've been using Android so long that I have those same exact frustrations when I use my IPhone. Try the other keyboards mentioned on this thread. And give it time.

You get your apps thru here, Google playstore mostly. Amazon has a store to, but I suggest getting your apps from one source so you know where they all came from during reinstalls.

I know where to get the apps, but is it an easy install? Do I have to do anything other than hit install? Uninstall the old one?

Usually when you download the new keyboard it will prompt you to change the keyboard to the new one when you open it

No that isn't any better wth this is frustrating me terribly

Have you tried a voodoo hand shrinkage chief? SwiftKey for me.

 

[heatdissipation]

This is Gboard. It seems more familiar and I haven't had to erase yet. Much much better!!!!

 

[heatdissipation]

Thank you so much. Gboard it is for now. I don't feel retarded typing now.

Gboard is my favorite also. And it gets better as you use it.
