The first versions of t9 were entirely predictable and hardcoded so the words were always in the same order when pressing star. Later versions had some optimisations that mad it change, but it settled quite quickly to your writing style.
I’m always surprised how few countries adopted t9… I’d Denmark literally everyone used t9. Even my mom. And you were weird if not using it. It wa also stupid fast to type on.
t9 was a gamechanger
You could seriously text without looking at your phone screen. It was awesome!
Tbh I could do that on a plain numeric keypad. I remember blindly texting under my desk in school. I wouldn’t be able to do it nowadays though.
Eh. I never used it. I could type without looking without T9. T9 was faster, but then I had to pay attention to the predictions.

I would love t9 on iOS. It’s so much faster than qwerty with two fingers
