I’m trying to scribble IKR as a reply to an iMessage and my watch, running the latest public release, insists on putting the r lowercase no matter how I scribble it. It just will not do it all in uppercase.

I’d really appreciate someone else confirming this is the case with theirs please.

I have noticed you are talking about the watch.
I will try.

Another edit:
Yes, same for me. No idea why a capital R should be read as an r
It will do them all in capital if I put a space between characters

It has something to do with following an upper case letter. It assumes the next letter should be lower case. You could use the button to the right with the arrows to select IKR. I think that button is for precisely these kinds of situations when you desire an odd combination like all upper or lower case.

I couldn’t get a capital R either. However, if I did a second R after the lower case r, that worked easy. Or if R is the first letter, it also capitalizes easy.

Thanks for testing and confirming.

Thanks. I had absolutely no idea you could tap on those little arrows to get further choices. You learn something new every day.

I assume it allows capital I and K together because it thinks it’s a shortcut for ‘I know’? Anyway, thanks again.
