How long did it take you to get used the iPhone's keyboard?

1 Answer

Answer :

Ask-public is good practice ;) But it takes a little while alright – I still keep hitting ‘m’ instead of backspace/delete. Btw, did you know if you hold down the ‘symbol enabler’ key and slide to the symbol you’re after without releasing, it jumps right back to regular keyboard when you release? no need for space or anything. I didn’t when I first got it, but the guy who set it up in the shop showed me that.
