iOS 26.4 Fixes iPhone Keyboard Accuracy Bug

The iOS 26.4 update that Apple plans to release as soon as next week includes improvements for the built-in iOS keyboard. In its notes for the software, Apple says iOS 26.4 offers “improved keyboard accuracy when typing quickly.”

It’s not entirely clear what Apple means by improved keyboard accuracy, but it’s likely a fix for an iOS keyboard bug that was highlighted on YouTube late last year. When typing some words, the autocorrect keyboard sometimes inexplicably inputs the wrong letter even though the user typed the correct letter, leading to typos.

The YouTube video pointing out the issue received over a million views, and it was also further publicized by news sites. There were thousands of comments from people experiencing the problem.

It sounds like iOS 26.4 addresses the root issue, preventing the keyboard from inserting the wrong letter when the user is typing quickly.
