Instead of pecking at each letter you want to type on an iPhone, you can instead just run your finger over the keys. Go to Settings, General, Keyboard, and then scroll down. Turn on Swipe to Type. Now in any app, you can type a word by just swiping vaguely over the letters you want and the iPhone figures it out.
