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.

    Swiping the whole word works in Android 13 some of the time, but ISTM it was better in Android 7. So I’m posting here basically to ask whether it’s just me experiencing that.
