Everyone knows the huge number of failures that Apple has been registering with its iPhone throughout history, from problems with the panel or the fragility of its mobiles, through battery life, one of the most questioned over time. But if there is a problem that has been systematically repeated over time in the iPhone, it has been those related to the keyboard; mostly software bugs that have greatly hampered the user experience with Cupertino phones.
the most common
The king of keyboard bugs, the one that has been experienced since Steve Jobs showed the world the first iPhone, is, of course, related to software. It is the most common of how many you will be able to have on your smartphone and therefore, it should be the first one that you check if you are experiencing any problem with the keyboard.
The good part about these keyboard problems on the iPhone is that they are usually quickly solved by Apple developers, releasing a new version of the operating system quite quickly so that we can install it and solve all possible bugs on the phone. To do this, you will have to go to the phone settings and look in ‘System updates’ to see if there is any and you can still put a solution
The keyboard does not respond well
After the software errors in terms of updates, the most normal thing is that the iPhone keyboard problem is due to its slowdown, that it takes time to write or that it freezes; a problem that can be due to two reasons.
Monitor mobile performance
If your iPhone is already having some time and begins to present problems in terms of performance and we will notice how, especially when we write faster, the keyboard slows down and takes time to respond and display all those letters that we have written on the screen.
For performance, there will be no other solution than trying to improve the performance of the mobile either from the software or in the technical service.
The problem is the dictionary
To fix keyboard responsiveness, which may not be able to keep up with typing, we can also reset the keyboard dictionary by going back to iPhone settings:
- Click on ‘General’ and then on ‘Reset’.
- Scroll down and tap on ‘Reset’ again to do it on ‘Reset keyboard dictionary’ .
- Enter your code.
Once reset, the issue with keyboard slowdown should be gone.
I don’t see the keyboard
At this time we are already entering a slightly more critical area in which the keyboard does not appear when we open it or even the letters do not appear, but simply the gray box on which they should go appears. At first, we could say that it is due to certain processes that block the keyboard from opening on our iPhone, so the first thing we should do is restart the iPhone , leaving a few seconds between turning it off and on. . In this way, once the mobile starts, we will check if the problem has disappeared.
If it has not disappeared, it is time to restore our phone through iCloud in order to recover the configuration that we had previously and therefore, solve the problems with the keyboard at once. To fix the problem, we will go to the settings of our iPhone:
- Within the settings, we will go to ‘General’ and then click on ‘Reset’.
- Once here, we will click on ‘Delete all content and settings’ .
This process will restore all the data on our phone, but before doing so, make sure you have an iCloud backup available so you don’t lose anything and once the process is finished, you can restore it and write again normally.
A panel failure
Although it is not directly related to the keyboard, it is a possible problem that can arise and in this case it is due to the fact that there is an error on the screen that is preventing it from working correctly and consequently, it does not allow the screen to work properly. phone keypad works. A problem that, if it happens, will affect the entire panel and not just our keyboard.
This will have simple solutions such as being able to connect an external keyboard to the phone, although you must bear in mind that if the screen does not work for you, unless you also connect a course or put it in desktop mode, there is little you can do beyond taking it to the technical service to fix the panel.
