I was hyped when I heard the news that it wouldn’t autocorrect anymore but it still happens smh. Unless I’m missing something?

This is what I did years ago lol. It works beautifully.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I did this too, I thought everyone did this 😂

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Oh fuck, I didn’t know this shit was a setting. Thank you for the advice. Now I can swear to my ducking heart’s content. Arghhhh, need to add fucking too.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

You forgot “fucked”, my good fuckered fuckering fuck, who fucked his fucking. Or perhaps I’m just a fucker.

The keyboard is without any doubt the WORST part of iOS. That Apple STILL has not made a good keyboard for iOS is beyond me. Google figured it out 8 years ago.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

They still sell more and more iPhones. Maybe if this would decline they would concentrate more on issues.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I’d say the keyboard and the notifications — such a shit show.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Try resetting your keyboard dictionary.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Didn’t help for me.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

my iPhone won't let me type the word "bus" it changes it to bud

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Bruh! And car becomes cad. It’s so fucking annoying!

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Try typing bullet by swiping. I was trying to search for a Magic Bullet air fryer.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I think you have to press on the word after it’s corrected and on the undo button that pops up

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I’ve noticed autocorrect has tanked since the last update. Seems worse than it ever was and doesn’t seem to learn

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

It’s also reactively auto correcting words several words behind and it’s driving me insane, like why are you correcting a word I typed 8 words ago.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I HATE this. Easily one of my biggest irritants with the keyboard, although it hasn’t been happening to me as frequently as it used to on like 15/16

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I hope not🤣

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Make a contact in your phone with Fuck Fucking Fucker Fucked. This works for anything. Any Contact in your phone will allow you to type that word out without trying to correct it.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I’ll try this

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago
[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

That’s because after this update, all of what the keyboard learned over the years of you using your phone’s keyboard was reset. So essentially you’re typing as if you’ve just got a brand new phone. And the new autocorrect stuff is dependant on machine learning and only works on iPhone 12 or above

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

To me autocorrect on iOS 17 doesn’t feel like an improvement at all.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

iOS 16 was bad for me and iOS 17 didn’t fix anything. English is not my native language but believe me when I say this is much worse in other languages. I even looked at other keyboards, it is that bad.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

They lied. Autocorrect is still shit because it doesn’t have an actual personal dictionary to remember what you tell it to remember.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

This bugged me so much but it learned my habits in a week. In turkish we have "aga" it means bro, and we have "ağa" it usually means the wealthiest and most reputable person on a village. It learnes quick tho

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Ya Apple what the duck!

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Fuck it
Now you duckin'

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

iOS can do third party keyboards now right? Best recommendation? Autocorrect really sucks bad since 17!

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I just disable autocorrect as a whole

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

The ducking auto correction still makes me laugh, so I keep it instead of doing the learning function. 😂

Go to settings > general> keyboard > text replacement. Add this and your problem will never happen again

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Funny part is you can say it’s fucking bad, but I managed to type that without an issue. And even if not, it can correct like 6 words behind with more context.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I used a trick where I put my initials to be text replaced by my email address for easy form fills. This just completely stopped working out of the blue one day. Sucks, it was so helpful.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I do this as well. It still works fine for me. Have you checked your keyboard text replacement settings? I remember them getting cleared out once after an update. If they’re still there, would try deleting and re-creating them.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Tap the word fucking on the left side of the suggestions and iOS will learn that’s what you mean. That’s how you train the autocorrect system.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I’ve noticed a lot of weird things with auto correct since iOS 17 came out. Just this morning it decided that Jeep wasn’t a word and kept autocorrecting to keep.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I made a text replacement for this and it hasn’t let me down on the occasion I DO want to use ducking…. when I typed this I realised how I never use the word ducking

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

It’s fixed for me in iOS 17

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

No offense, but why the hell would anyone use the default keyboard when SwiftKey exists?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Damn ducking duck

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I think it got worse. Wife and I switched because ios17, especially the autocorrect, got so bad. We would have to constantly go back and fix anything we typed. We also got an incredible amount of spam calls that seems to have been fixed by moving to Samsung. Kind of sad because in general, I like Apple products.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Apple keyboard is terrible on all levels. I have no idea how or why it's that terrible. The personal dictionary on Gboard and Swiftkey is a million times better.
