Another comment I want add is the auto-correction found on iphones (and assuming android included) are making typing so much more difficult. An example that we should all relate to are the words developers type that the iphone thinks is a misspelling and autocorrects to something that completely changes the meaning of the sentence.
These phones must think that all there users have only high-school vocabulary. I would much rather a word stayed mispelled than corrected.
"A mispelt wrd is prolly easyr to understand" than...
"A missed felt we'd is trolly waste to understand"
While writing this, I decided to turn off my autocorrection and see how that affects my frustruation. Or maybe the problem is I've got meaty Trump-fingers.
