Misspelling is faster on the iPhone
Tuesday, September 9th, 2008 I’m not sure that I quite agree with this in the wider scheme of things, but these examples are hard to argue with — apparently it’s easier and faster to just misspell words on your iPhone than to take the time to type them out in full. “We’re,” for example, is usually six hits on the iPhone’s keyboard — four for the letters, and one to shift to punctuation and another to punch in the apostrophe. But if you type “Weree,” just five hits, Apple’s little corrector will fix it for you, and you can keep on writing.
Normally, the little corrections made by the iPhone are more frustrating than anything else, but in this case, it could be a benefit — as long as you remember to misspell all the words with apostrophes while typing. Hopefully, any habits incurred while trying to save time on the iPhone won’t translate into anything else you happen to write — weree not responsible for any mistakes that might get made.
