iPhone 16 Pro Max keyboard issues

YASSSSSS, this helped to fix mine a bit. Still not super fast, but definitely improved!!! Thank you:

APPLE……PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP!!!!

the same with me, I was waiting for the new ios hoping that it would solve the problem but now it is even worse, the problem has not been fixed, I hope that Apple is aware that iPhone 16 pro max users have this problem. When I spoke with an agent from Apple, he told me to reset the settings first, I did that and nothing, then to delete everything via iTunes, and that didn't help either, and the last thing was that the new ios 18.01 will solve it, and that didn't work either .

I've had this keyboard issue since day 1. I heard the recent update was going to fix this issue, but if anything it made it just a little bit worse for me. I wanted to chime in here, so we get a quicker fix!

the latency issue is very annoying and the keyboard doesn’t appear when i have to fill forms.

I have only had my phone 2 days and these keyboard issues, makes me want to go back to my 13 Pro Max. Come on Apple, sort it out! You don't pay nearly £1.5k on a phone not to be able to type on it!

Same here, keyboard is very slow when typing, lacks responsiveness. I have to click twice if not 3 times on the same letters for it work. Very annoying. I hope the next update fixes this issue

Hello everyone. I've been using an iPhone 16 Pro Max for 4 days. I have the same issue with the keyboard. At first, I thought it was a problem with the glass, so I replaced it with an original one. Then I thought it was the case causing the issue. I reset the keyboard, and then I reset the phone to factory settings. I'm typing sentences with hundreds of mistakes; it reacts extremely slowly, it's so frustrating! I'm already losing my patience... I had the 16 Pro Max; I used the 13 Pro Max for 3 years and could type at lightning speed. I really hope this issue gets resolved soon, because I’d rather not have to go to service, as it would cost not €300-€500, but €1500.

I just got my phone last night and noticed this glitchy, slow keyboard. Any way to know whether or not it’ll be fixed soon??? It’s making me regret my purchase.

I literally had my new 16PM today and it’s beyond bugging me with the typing lag. My iPhone 12PM has better response than this!!!

Typing on the 16 pro max is so frustrating that im thinking about returning my phone and going back to using my phone from 2021.

i dont have the time to correct or wait for the slow lagging delays.

heres a sentence tiy can tell shoukd be clearly corrected and even ghe “i” should be I

its a mess

I’m blown away by this. The keyboard functionality is awful. I loved the smoothness of the 14 pro max. This is like 5 steps backwards. It’s truly aggravating. I hope this is a software issue that they can fix cuz this is painful.

i found that typing on iPhone 16 pro max is really frustrating. I keep on missing the spacebar and the delete key. I just keep on making a mistake and making words string. I also type very fast and this new iPhone 16 pro max makes it really frustrating to type on. SPACEBAR and BACKSPACE are really annoying.

i do a lot of typing on iPhone i just can’t seem to get over the fact that it seems I’m downgrading than upgrading from my previous iPhone.

i hope there will be updates to fix this

Hi Ashmin7! Thank you for the advice. I have noticed some improvement with the typing. Still having issues with spacebar and backspace though. I think it might also be placebo? I don’t know but i did just that, your advice and it seems to have somewhat worked.

hoping that Apple will address this issue as it is really annoying and affecting a lot of the iPhone users who use their phones most of the time in typing and composing emails and text messages.

thanks again. ☺️

Please give a try with force restart the device using the steps below

1. Press and quickly release the volume up button.
2. Press and quickly release the volume down button.
3. Press and hold the side button.
4. When the Apple logo appears, release the side button.

I have the 16 plus same exact issue with the no responsive keyboard and screen.
