George Floyd was murdered on May 25. COVID was ravaging the world. The presidential election cycle was in full swing. And I’m sure much more.
Hello fellow Gboard user. I would have also noticed “abs” in place of “and”.
Fucking thing gets worse every goddamned day. Thanks, lol
It does feel this way… but why?! Shouldn’t it be getting better with more training data? Is other people’s shitty typing data fucking up my experience?
Or maybe my swiping technique is getting lazy? I’m not sure, but it definitely feels worse than a few years ago.
If you make the same typo often enough and don’t correct it with the autocorrect feature (eg backspacing or jumping to the wrong character instead) Gboard will think it’s what you’re meaning to type and add it to your dictionary. When it comes up in the little autocorrect thing above your keyboard, you can drag it into the trash. You could also go through your dictionary and delete specific words as well. That’s what works for me anyways, not sure if I’m correct
Wait what? I can delete suggestions‽
Holy shit, I just tried it! WTF‽‽
Happy to help! Bonus tip, on Android you can hold the space bar down and slide the cursor left or right to bring it to specific letters too. On apple you can jump lines with the cursor by doing the same thing, just up/down instead
Yeah, I’ve been using the spacebar cursor thing for years, only after a similar interaction. It gets annoying at times since it will often speed up way past the point I’m trying to go, however.
