What IS autocorrect's bloody problem?

Also "in it" is something it ALWAYS tries to change to "innit" (!)

Who programmes these things?

Do you mean brave is a more common word than brace?

Twistmeandturnme · 21/07/2017 11:31

YABU. Brace is used exactly as often as brace.

Mine always corrects ill to I'll. Fucking annoying.

DownUdderer · 21/07/2017 11:32

Fuck autocorrect

WonkoTheSane42 · 21/07/2017 11:34

I wish mine would learn that I never use the word ducking.

Stealth - 😂😂😂😂

I'm not going upstairs to deliver that brace.

SerfTerf · 21/07/2017 11:35

Oh fuck, it's even done it to me in the thread title. I need autocorrect tailored for someone too slapdash to proofread properly.

"Isn't BRAVE a more commonly used word than BRACE", is the question, and why does autocorrect to think otherwise?

Stupid cunt serf

My phone let me write cunt, but used to correct fucking to ducking.

I notice I have persuaded it that fucking is right and it no longer corrects it. I feel really smug about that Smile

My butter basted turkey was once changed to butter bastard turkey.

Now, we just call it a butter bastard turkey but it never corrects it to basted.
