Apple Fixes Keyboard in iOS 8.3 Beta So Searches.Don't.Look.Like.This

Ios 8.3 beta 3 does fix battery meter freezing and jumping on 61% to 59 so on 31% to 29%, 28% to 26% and 16% to 14%. This is very annoying using my 5s.
 
Omg yes! I thought that was just me. I convinced myself I was just typing wrong. Phew!

Wow...apple actually fixing one of their f-ups? Red letter day for sure. I figured the reason was we were typing wrong.

It wasn't really a screw up but just something that needed some overdue usability improvements.

Kind of surprised more people didn't pick up on what was behind it sooner.

Glad to see more smaller things getting fixed. That said, it really was a very minor annoyance at best.
 
This happens to me all the time. I just thought I needed more time to adjust to the 6+

It's so rare that in the combined textbox you would actually want both periods and spaces, as spaces aren't valid in URLs and most (all?) search engines ignore punctuation.

Spaces are allowed in URLs, in the sense that browsers will encode them safely. Without a space bar you'd have to encode them yourself.

Somewhat of an edge case, but expected behavior in any browser.
 
8.3 is shaping up to be a very nice release. This will be amazing. I do it all the time and thought I'd gotten worse at typing on the iPhone.
 
Still quite surprised at how many people didn't realize what was behind it (as far as the period button being present next to the smaller spacebar).
 
Man, as soon as I saw this MacRumors post, I went and dug my iOS Beta invite email out of the trash. This keyboard issue is annoying as all get out.

Unfortunately.right.now.the.beta.signup.site.seems.to.be.down, so.I.can't.get.the.update. :D
