I am having more typing errors after upgrading to android 9 on the Note Pro.

In the first instance I even had problems turning pages: I kept selecting words instead. I alleviated that issue by increasing the time to differentiate between a tap and a hold. I think I had to install the app _Android hidden settings_, because Onyx Boox has disabled the normal link.

So typing on the stock android keyboard generates too many errors. With Microsoft swiftkey that is better. My problem with typing is now that a lot of the time spaces aren't registered properly. So my words tend to grow rather long and I am seeing very short sentences with obviously badly spelled words.
When I press on the right side of the space bar it seems to go better.

This month I expect firmware 3.2 to be rolled out, so maybe it's better after...

I really was better of with android 6 with both the pen and touch input.
