iOS autocorrect has been driving me up a fricking wall and it seems to be getting worse. I’ve been using the floating mini keyboard on my iPad Pro (I started using mini keyboard because for whatever idiotic reason iOS doesn’t allow swipe typzing on full screen keyboard - and google board gets buggy).
Here’s what it’s doing:
-
The most annoying is that now its correcting the previously written word based on the current word (which is annoying enough), but the corrected word NEVER makes any sense at all in any conceivable context.
-
It always corrects “yea” to “ya” even though I have “yea” in text replacement and even if I swipe from y to e and stop swiping completely, the predictive text proposes/autocorrects “ya” (which I’ve never typed on purpose in my life).
-
If there’s a company name that is also an English word (Shell, Apple, etc) it always capitalizes mid sentence like I’m intending to write the company name. I swear Apple is being paid for product placement.
-
Even though I have “fucking” in text replacement, as I type it, it correctly predicts the word until I swipe to the “g” when it corrects it to “ducking.” And it’s driving me fucking nuts. <- ok so I allowed it to correct it to “ducking“ just now as a joke, but when instead of “nuts” it corrected to “”buds” (error on my part I’m sure), it went back and changed “ducking” to “fucking” !!
Help!
