Do any of my fellow iPhone users have trouble typing the letter P?

Not as much as I do with “a”. I almost always hit “cap” when going for “a”.

Yeah, I do that. But this P thing seems like a flaw in the keyboard.

My last name begins with "P" and I've never had a problem. Maybe thumb is flawed just right?

I seem to regularly type woukd and thst, though.

Anyone who has seen my posts here can see I have trouble hitting the
correct letters, especially when typing fast.
The worst errors occur when I’m in my phone.
There seem to be occasions where entire strings of letters seem to
evaporate. I think it may be autocorrect misinterpreting a single missed
letter and going off on one.
Can be really annoying.

Main culprits do seem to be the I-o-p area, the shift-a area and the x-c
area.
The number of times I send c at the end of a message to my wife, daughter
or son is crazy.

Reminds me of the kid's joke about the boy who has to go to the bathroom, but the teacher makes him recite the alphabet first and at the end, the teacher says, "Where's the 'p'?" and the boy says, "It's running down my leg."

Let me tell you, in fourth grade in 1980, this joke SLAYED.
