QuickType Keyboard, a convenient typing feature that provides users with suggested words above the keyboard as they type, now comes to Apple Watch Series 7 with watchOS 9 (via MacRumors).
Apple Watch Series 7 features a larger display than previous models, which is why it includes a full on-screen keyboard. With watchOS 9, the QuickType feature is now also available which attempts to predict which words you will type next based on the first few letters of a word.
Using QuickType, Apple Watch users can tap on a suggested word to insert it into a sentence while typing, which is quite handy given the small keyboard.

QuickType was first introduced on the iPhone as part of iOS 8 in 2014, and the feature is also available on the iPad. Once watchOS 9 releases this fall, this new QuickType feature will be available to all Apple Watch Series 7 users.

“Apple Watch Series 7 features a larger display than previous models, which is why it includes a full on-screen keyboard.” Not entirely true. For e.g. The smaller Series 7 model includes the new keyboard while the larger screen model of the Series 6 does not – even though the Series 6 screen is larger than the Series 7 screen in this example. In other words, they want you to buy a new watch.
