> as a candidate, noticing your interviewer typing/writing is also pretty offputting.

Really? For me it shows they are doing their work properly instead of just depending on their memory.

I'm more thinking about interviewers that seem to be continuously typing while I'm talking without following up on things I've said. Perhaps with a summary feature like this they could be more present, and make the interview feel more like a conversation than a verbal form.

Ah I see your point. I just pause when they start typing and let them finish. I consider it a polite indication that I let them finish storing what I said in longer-term memory and that at the same time I would prefer they focus on what I say.

I've found it quite off-putting. I tend to pause when someone is typing furiously, so they have time to catch up. But then this can disrupt the flow of conversation and is a bit awkward

As long as they type quietly I'm all good. It's the loud typers that get me >:(
