Also, especially if it was this way on the other phone, did you turn off auto correct and predictive text?

If this is a brand-new phone Did you make sure there is nothing else covering the screen, new iPhones come with a plastic film covering both front and back, did you make sure the screen is clean and what typing style do you normally use? If you normally use standard typing where you have to double or split tap each letter and it got set to touch typing I could see how this could seem confusing since with touch typing al you have to do to type a letter is to find it and then lift up your finger.

Subject: Keyboard settings for IPHONE 7
Hi all,
I am setting up an IPHONE 7 for my wife and I am noticing several
differences in functionality from our existing IPHONE 6 models even
though they are both on IOS 12.1 etc.
In particular the keyboard seems somewhat "lively" wih things popping up
all over the place when all I am trying to do is input an e mail address.
I would be glad of any advice as to what to turn off to calm down the
screen.
Any resources which cover the differences between a 6 and 7 would be
useful.
Thanks
Gary
