When My iPhone Keyboard Started Moving a Little Slower
A small heaviness in typing, with a way back to flow.
“Sometimes the first pause you notice is between letters.”
One day my thumbs kept moving, but the words arrived a beat late on the screen— each keypress held in a longer moment than it should be.
In some apps the keyboard fell into stillness for a second. In others, the movement turned heavier, like my iPhone was thinking too hard about every letter.
