I swipe about 90% of the time, but it’s so frustrating sometimes. It’ll occasionally give me the wrong word. I’ll delete the word and slow down my strokes, ensuring I stop at each specific letter, and it’ll give me the same wrong word every time that doesn’t even make sense in the sentence context. When it works, it’s great though.
The app is pretty similar to Google Photos. You can search locations, people, etc. It’s cool and works well enough, but I just use it as a secondary backup. Google Photos is still primary for me for now. I’d recommend giving it a try though. You can use the app without syncing anything just to see what it looks like first.
