social to report the issues with the text input without waiting for it to catch up with each bit I've typed

hich I should never have to do, because this is a flagship phone made in the past year and jumble is competing

with nothing at all for system resources. It's caught up part of the way to what I'm typing now and I see how it randomly added like breaks in the middle of something, classic issue. And there it goes changing "line" to "like" for the nth time today (which I know was t me because it's happened multiple times, and with the screen lagging, my focus is directly on watching which buttons I press on my keyboard and carefully paying attention to backspace exactly once and fix it when I mistap)
