iPhone 16 Pro Max keyboard issues

two issues with my iPhone 16 pro max IOS 18:

1) keyboard lacks of responsiveness, oftentimes I have to double click when typing or It misses letters.


2) when searching for apps or contacts and using the swipe down function if starting a word with the letter «s», the search immediately disappears and spotlight shuts down.


what to do? Do I have a faulty device or is this an OS issue?


thanks and regards!

Has anyone figured out a fix to this???? It’s like my keyboard can’t keep up with how fast I am typing.


ughhh, so frustrating.

I thought I'd seen the last of the issues with this last update. It definitely seemed like it was better at first. Now, it's back to being terrible again, so I've switched back to Microsoft SwiftKey Al Keyboard, and that is working better than the stock keyboard.

Please give a try with force restart the device using the steps below


  1. Press and quickly release the volume up button.
  2. Press and quickly release the volume down button.
  3. Press and hold the side button.
  4. When the Apple logo appears, release the side button.
