Keyboard is awful
They want you to use a special keyboard which has a predictive text feature which is the worst I have ever used. Does this weird thing where after it corrects something incorrectly and you start deleting to fix it, it will change the word back to what you had meant to type. It's really aggressive too, I have to go back and forth multiple times to write what I wanted. Really glad I only have to use this for 5 weeks.
United StatesDrains Battery/TERRIBLE Keyboard
Like other reviews state, this app will drain your battery super fast. But, for me, the worst part is the keyboard. It does not work like the regular apple keyboard. There is no way to turn off the predictive text, which I truly hate, so it inserts random words into whatever you type. If you want to correct a word that was placed using predictive text (ie: calling to call) if you try to back up it will simply erase everything. The autocorrect feature is completely unpredictable, and the emoji section, where your favorites would normally be, doesn't function in the same way. So those won't be where you need them to be. Lastly, the space bar is also not sensitive enough to catch all spaces, so you will have several run on words, and you can only use is to navigate side to side. You cannot navigate to a line above or below. I have to use this thing for a year, and I am really unhappy about it.
