Such signatures are so annoying. Who in the history ever read this and thought “yeah, you know what I’ll get an iPhone for email”? Stupid preset.
Probably some people, back when smartphones were novel in 2007.
At this point though, it’s tacky and implies that you don’t care enough about the conversation to turn it off.
It’s meant as an excuse. “Sorry for the crappy typos and autocorrupt. It was my iPhone.”
“Brevity due to mobility”
Dude iPhone keyboard are fucking horrific.
Not in my experience, and they’ve improved the error correction / prediction logic quite a bit with iOS 17.
And yet they’ve never fixed the size, added a number row or a second layer for punctuation…
…I switched from Android to iPhone when they stopped making physical keyboards, after comparing on-screen keyboards on Android devices to iOS’ keyboard. Android’s on-screen keyboards were horrible at the time.
I’m sure they’ve improved, but there nothing horrific about iOS’ keyboard—I have always found it to work very well.
That’s why I switched back to a Blackberry keyboard on a Fairphone 4 ;)
