I mean the functionality where it guesses what word you are trying to type, after seeing a few letters, or when you type by sliding your finger over the keyboard instead of pecking individual keys. I have all the custom dictionary and self-training stuff shut off on my old Android 7 phone (didn’t want to upload data to Google) and it still worked pretty well. Is it my imagination or is Android 13 a lot worse?

Amusingly, Android 13 seems more willing to use NSFW words. I tried to type “furosemide” (a prescription drug that a family member uses) and the phone sas “fu” and suggested “fucking”. Android 7 also had those words but wouldn’t use them until it was out of alternatives. I’m not offended but I think that change is funny.

    What I noticed is that the predicted word it’s showing you right above the keyboard doesn’t match with what it’s actually entering into the text box. I find myself having so many nonsensical sentences because what I thought I was typing is completely different from what it entered.
