It’s an option on iOS. I use the FUCK out of it on every device that I have, even on tablets (though only in portrait mode, and with a reduced keyboard.) Yeah sometimes we mis-swipe, and some words (like “mis-swipe!”) are not going to be recognized. But you type the weird words, swipe the rest, and then fix any mistakes by tapping on the word suggestions as you go. Besides, it’s not like you shouldn’t read it over once when you’re done. People like to blame autocorrect for their mistakes but fr what the heck happened to editing your shit??

So yes, I use swipe, and it’s objectively more efficient so everyone should!
