How to type more accurately on the iPhone

Use the whole "pad" of your finger (or thumb) when typing, not just the tip. In other words, position your finger as if you were trying to leave a "criminal" fingerprint on the key you are selecting. Tap, don't press, however.

Also, for "problem" keys (mine seem to be O and P), keep your finger on those keys for a tiny extra fraction of a second. If the zoom reveals you hit the wrong one, don't lift and try again -- just roll your finger left or right to grab the correct key.

These two tips made a huge difference in my accuracy and speed.
