This is absolutely the worst thing about iOS 7 for me. Might have to switch to chrome for a while until they fix this issue. Every time I try to search I end up hitting the ".com" button instead of the space bar about half the time.
 
Safari and the .com button

Anyone else hate the placement of the [.com] button in Safari? 9 times out of 10 I hit it on accident instead of hitting the [space].

Would like to see it moved, although not sure to where, the layout of the keyboard is already tightly confined. Any ideas?

Yeah I usually use chrome but I've been using safari a bit more now that you can have more tabs. That button is killing my desire to use it though because I'm more prone to tap the space bar with my right thumb so I hit it EVERY time.
 
It would make more sense for apple to replace it with a "." button instead, smaller, makes more sense because a lot of companies will begin shifting away from .com to use their own TLD (apple.com >> .apple)
 
Im right handed and I generally hit the [space] with my right thumb. It's discrimination against the right handed.
 
I actually came on here to make a new thread about this change. It's driving me absolutely insane!!!
 
It was bugging me at first, but after 2 weeks, I'm starting to retrain myself so less of an issue. Prefer it to be .com than .co.uk here in the uk tho.
 
I'm right handed but hit space with my left thumb (when I'm 2-hand typing). Always did it this way. I haven't once accidentally hit .com.
 
I had a problem with it the first week I had iOS 7 but have gotten used to it now. Its just one of those things that takes a minute to get used to.
