Does anyone else find that autocorrect on the new ios13 is really whacky? It changes things that do not need to be changed. One thing it does is change things when the texts are sent to be totally wrong. I guess I am not going to have a choice but to completely turn it off. I wanted to ask here if anyone else has issues.
 
All the words it does weird things to I manually add in the keyboard settings. Been doing this for a while and now I rarely have issues.
 
As horrible as auto-fill/correct is, replacing words you never typed, turning it off is even worse. So pick your devil.
Autocorrect learns as you use it over time. Eventually it gets a little bit better. As stated above, entering a lot of shortcuts in the keyboard settings definitely helps things out
 
I’ve never had issues with autocorrect since I always only type English. Often I’ve seen people try to type words from other languages but using English characters, which might be confusing for the system.

At least it's not as bad as it was when I had a 3GS! Duck as an expletive, random all-caps words in texts, 'for' being autocorrected to 'fir' and 'hell' being changed to 'he'll' every single time. Made for some hilarious DYAC memes however.
