    You can also edit the list and make it so it doesn’t do it anymore either…

    Autocorrect is only as smart as the one using it.

      Yeah, I changed my auto correct on my first smart phone like 15 years ago now and have propagated my user dictionary and rules forward automatically with every new phone since. I’ve made more edits on every single phone along the way, too. But never had to change the same thing twice.

      Any time it does something annoying, actually take the 3 seconds to fix it…

        It’s also incredibly ironic how they state

        It’s somewhere in the middle with good usefulness and utility like any other tool as long as it’s used properly. Like any other tool.

        Then complain about “dumb autocorrect”. Like any other tool, when wielded incorrectly, it’s not gonna work lol.
