Anyone else experiencing problems with swipe to text on S26 Ultra? Specifically not being able to swipe to type words that start with T, Y, and P. It forces me to switch typing methods all the time. Lots of words start with those letters. Any known fix?

Hello PGOIBOY, welcome to the Samsung Community. We understand your concerns and would be happy to assist. Have you tried any troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue, if so what have you tried?
Verify that you are using the default keyboard: Navigate to Settings, Tap General Management, Tap Keyboard list and default and then verify that you are using the default Keyboard.
Optimize your device: Close all running apps, Navigate to Settings, Tap Device Care, Tap Optimize Now.
Restart your device.
Clear the Keyboard Cache and Data: Open Settings, Tap Apps, Tap Sort, Tap the switch next to show system apps then tap Ok. Next select Keyboard, Tap Force Stop, Tap Ok when prompted. On the same screen Tap Storage, Tap Clear Data and then Tap Delete. This will erase all your keyboard settings including saved words.
Verify that your device is up to the latest software update.
Check your device in Safe Mode to verify a third party app is not causing the issue:
Power on your Galaxy phone or tablet in Safe mode.
If the troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue then we recommend performing a factory data reset on your device (Please be sure to back up your device before performing the reset):
