Hello all, a few weeks ago I started having trouble handwriting the letter 'i' using lower case, it does work in upper case, I initially thought it might be an issue with my screen protector although everything else worked as before, now that I have my new Iphone and before applying a screen protector, I find I'm still not able to draw a lower case 'i'. I did this without issue for years so don't think it's me but thought I'd throw it out here and see if anyone else is experiencing the same? Thanks in advance.

I don’t use handwriting frequently so I hadn’t noticed this. On my iPhone SE, second generation, running iOS 16.1, the current beta, and attempt to hand write a lowercase I seems always to result in the Letter L. Handwriting seems unable to spot the dot above the i.

Thanks for confirming, same behavior on my old XR and new 14 Pro, drawing a lower case i results in an l no matter how I draw it, fortunately upper case still works. I'll report it to Apple accessibility. I don't use this a lot either but sometimes it comes in handy when opening some of my many apps that are not in my primary home screens.

Just yesterday I wrote to Apple accessibility about it, and few other things, and they confirmed it is a problem, so I really suggest you all right to them.
