Please fix the iPhone

PLEASE change the auto-suggestion feature which suggests words as you type so that it ONLY uses the suggested word when I CLICK-TO-ACCEPT it. It is infuriating and arrogant of you to assume that you know what I want to type unless I click-to-reject. I am CONSTANTLY going back and retyping words because they were overwritten with the iPhone's mistakes. Wish 396

I wish there was a way to prevent the accelerometer from always turning whatever application sideways. However, I would like to be able to set preferences to make all keyboards appear in landscape mode or portrait mode. Wish 774

iPhone has same problems as lot of their competitors. Why not Apple join the Symbian, Android and Palm community and let developers work across to create multiple cross platform applications. After all all of these guys are friends and they do communicate behind doors. Enough of nonsense about owing and creating application for your own preparatory use. Wish 655

Please add Dvorak keyboard support. Wish 2055

Allow click-drag on keyboard with one finger to see which key is selected (like it does today), then use tap with other finger to "hit" the key but DON'T dismiss the selected key! This would allow easier text input for people with fat fingers. Wish 731

My iPhone keypad is sticking when I hit the "delete" key.

Apple has replaced my iPhone already & it's still happening. Wish 2971

Please add an actual keyboard! Wish 2383

I write sms in 2 languages,so I wish my phone could remember what language I was using the last time I replied to a contact. it's easy to hit the Int.button on the keyboard to change it,but it'be even easier if it was automatic.Wouldn't it be very easy to save that info along with the conversation?I hate when the dictionnary doesn't recognize what I'm typing cause it's set to the other language Wish 4300

Please, allow us to deactivate auto-correction when typing! Wish 4063

RELEVANT UMLAUTS FIRST. Depending on what language the phone is set to, the relevant umlauts should be placed first in the umlaut bubble. So for Swedish, when I hold press and hold A, I need to have Å and Ä first, because they are in use all the time. The other variations are never used in Swedish. Right now, I have to scan through Á, À, Â, Æ and à every time I want to type Å. Wish 6188

Switching between keyboards by holding the "globe" key and getting a pop-up like on some letter keys. It's a bit of a pain to tap through 5 different keyboards that all have a slightly differently placed globe key (English/German/Japanese/Chinese Handwriting/Smiley keyboards for me). Wish 6076

Offer more international keyboards (like Mac OS X), or allow users to download keyboards without having to hack into the system. iPhone is an international success, ditch the parochial attitude. Wish 5100

please let us edit autocorrection dictionary. some words are wrong, correcting them is a slow solution. but some of them appear impossible to change. for example, in italian dictionary, "it" will be *always* corrected in "or". you can refuse suggestion 100 times but it will keep suggesting (just imagine italian websites domain: .it). also lots of "è" and "é" are wrong. Wish 1831

When pressing and holding A or O to access language specific characters (Danish keyboard), the most frequent used danish characters are not the first displayed in the popup (close to you finger). So you have move/slide your finger too far to select the character. Wish 3587

the whole, text message thing...the suggester is so annoying!!! if i wanted to add the word it suggests it should enter that when i accually click the word, not when i hit the space bar!!! im constantly backspaceing...*it needs to die* Wish 4448

wireless keyboard Wish 6751

Pressing a buttun and waiting for a character to appear is not a real keyboard support for Turkish (nor is it for any other language?)

I want control over that (switchable selectable language), or a reliable fixed language! Wish 7119

Replace textarea fields (HTML) with an entry box like the one from the SMS application. (The dropdown function is already reproduced, so why do not the same with the textarea fields?) Wish 6113

I find myself typing some things a lot. How about a way to add custom buttons that will paste bits of text you type often? For instance "gmail.com". I type that text 5-10 times a day (or more). It would be great to just hit a single button and see that entered. Wish 2682

It wold be nice for non english users, to double-tap on a key of the virtual keyboard to write a default special character. For example: double tap ''a'' in Spanish to write ''�''; double tap on ''n'' to do ''�'', etc. This will really increase speed writing because special characters are very common and press-and-wait-the-key-to-write is painful. Thanks you very much! Wish 1034

Full Georgien (qartulii) support! Wish 6622

In Spanish we use a single letter as prepositions. For instance we use the vowal "a" to say: "Voy a la escuela" (I'm going to school) and the iPhone suggests a previous learnt word like "adios" and I end up writing "Voy adios la escuela" I've tried a million times pressing the little X and it nevers forget the word. Also this happens with the letter O, Y, E, and many more we use by themselves. Wish 2813

the ability to add words to the dictionary would be very much desired. Some words get autocorrected and the sentence just sounds.... Evil Wish 2815

The conversation screen in txt messages.. the screen above the keyboard that shows your conversation, is now significantly smaller due to the widescreen keyboard, which is fine, but when you type a test message that is more than 1 line long, it still has the formatting for the portrait typing, your txt doesn't fill the whole screen before going to the 2nd line. fix this! Wish 7310

Full Persian support. Wish 6386

I would love to have a customizable dictionary for all areas where you use your own input. Blackberry has this, iPhone should too. For example, if I type "u", it would spell out "you" or if I type "bc" it would spell out "because" or anything a user wants to program. Wish 7593

I realize that some of the keys already display optional characters when you hold them down for extended periods but I think the first selectable option should be a capital letter. Wish 7758

Interpret swipes across the keyboard as arrow keys. For example, interpret a 'swipe left' as 'cursor left' etc. Refinements: - swipe left and hold should keep the cursor moving left until released - two finger swipe left/right could be mapped to 'word to the left', and 'word to the right' - two finger swipe up/down could be mapped to 'page up'/'page down' Wish 8003

It would be useful to have cursor keys, home and back, and perhaps page up and down keys. Sometimes it's hard to navigate when writing. Wish 8479

My Blackberry and Windows phones had a much better autocomplete when composing texts or emails -- they offered a list of words, instead of just one. For example, if I typed "boted" it would offer "bored, voted, bores, votes". iPhone needs that. If Windows can do it, iPhone can probably do it better. Wish 8121

For apple to extend the wide-size of texts to better use the screen space in landscape and the readability of long text messages so you can read more lines and have a larger keyboard at same time Wish 7894

When I type in "reading", please don't try and auto-correct it to "Reading". This is obviously for the hipsters, and I've never been to Reading Festival. Wish 8021

Allow the iPhone to be used as a desktop replacement. Provide better support for monitor/TV out, support for Bluetooth keyboards, and software that converts the iPhone screen into a trackpad.
