iPhone 16 Pro Max keyboard issues

I’m having the same issue. In addition auto correct doesn’t work well. It doesn’t correct the simplest of words. The screen lag time is awful. I’m hoping they’ll have a fix soon!!! I’m super frustrated.

Typing on the 16 pro max is so frustrating that im thinking about returning my phone and going back to using my phone from 2021.

i dont have the time to correct or wait for the slow lagging delays.

heres a sentence tiy can tell shoukd be clearly corrected and even ghe “i” should be I

its a mess

i found that typing on iPhone 16 pro max is really frustrating. I keep on missing the spacebar and the delete key. I just keep on making a mistake and making words string. I also type very fast and this new iPhone 16 pro max makes it really frustrating to type on. SPACEBAR and BACKSPACE are really annoying.

i do a lot of typing on iPhone i just can’t seem to get over the fact that it seems I’m downgrading than upgrading from my previous iPhone.

i hope there will be updates to fix this

Hi Ashmin7! Thank you for the advice. I have noticed some improvement with the typing. Still having issues with spacebar and backspace though. I think it might also be placebo? I don’t know but i did just that, your advice and it seems to have somewhat worked.

hoping that Apple will address this issue as it is really annoying and affecting a lot of the iPhone users who use their phones most of the time in typing and composing emails and text messages.

thanks again. ☺️

Yes yes. Did notice that too. Sometimes i feel that when i type too fast the backspace won’t work or when i mistype something and i have to delete something the backspace doesn’t work quite well too. So disappointing from Apple. I hope they address this as this is one of the most important things for me to make work easier and more efficient for me.

the only downside for this when you use your iPhone mirroring, the keyboard won’t type properly using your laptop

I have this issue with the 16 pro max keyboard. When I try to type, it freezes, misses letters, takes long to respond. It’s been almost a month and it’s still a problem. Are you currently working on this?

Thank you.

There is something i found on YouTube. Somebody suggested deleting the keyboard and installing them again. I did just that and it somehow made it work. Try doing this and re-installing the English keyboard or whatever keyboard you use. It somewhat resolved the issue but not quite as fast as the previous iPhones that i owned before.

Me and my wife are having the same issue. The keyboard is annoyingly slow and also misses to type certain letters viz. 'i', 'o', 'space' etc. Not sure if we should return the phone and go back to iPhone 13 PM. That was so much better. My wife is also having issue navigating the apps. The back button or go to previous button is not working.

Sadly my friend, I’ve tried everything known to man to fix my keyboard. All the resets, all the disabling/enabling. Called apple support. There’s nothing they could do to fix the issue. I’m waiting for an update to come out at this point. Mines been doing the same thing since I got it. Apple support said that if all else fails I can take it in to the Apple Store and have one of the techs fully diagnose my phone. I have Apple warranty and care and what not, but apparently I can’t just trade my phone in for a new one either without paying next to full price for another. I’m playing the waiting game..

Here is proof that there is obviously a problem with the keyboard as I did a typing test.

Results were the following:

iPhone 16 Pro Max: 32WPM 174CPM (Top 70%)

iPhone 14 Pro Max: 57WPM 309CPM (Top 20%)

The exact same is happening to me. I switch between German & English and thought it was the multilingual keyboard but it still lags no matter which keyboard I use. Now at least I know I am not alone. I expect more from Apple. This has persisted for months if I look above. Please help. it is so frustrating

I have just updated to the new 18.3 update and now my keyboard is reacting how it should be. No lag when selecting characters and reacting to my responses. Looks like this was a software issue and not a hardware issue.

I just got an iPhone 16 and I’m already sick of it. Apple has been going down the shithole for awhile. If this isn’t fixed very soon I’m switching to android as this pos is useless. Nothing works with keyboard. Is there an update soon? So frustrating for me.

I started using the Microsoft SwiftKey keyboard along with a few of the other things people recommend here, and now my issued are completely gone.

I highly suggest giving it a try.
