Do you use the swipe typing? (alien.top)

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 just switched last month from Android and in swyping right now! It makes a ton of mistakes though, so I should really stop. The mistakes are pretty much the same as in the Android, but the iphone had the added frustration of always adding letters to common words (Android didn't do that). The becomes there or three. Everything gets a d at the end to become past tense. Stuff like that. I loved the droid 4 with a physical keyboard. Typing on the phone had never been good like that again.

Hopefully I caught all the mistakes in this message but I'm sure I've missed a few.
