    I use it on my phone for text messages, but I've realized that over the years, I'm starting to forget how to spell some words. I should probably stop using it to reprogram my brain.

        Yes. Autocorrect has gotten better and better with my typing as it learns the words I type. It takes into account where on the wrong letters that I’m typing to figure out the actual word. I’m pretty fast at typing on my phone.

          I did, but I just turned it off two seconds ago. I had been fed up for a while with all the "ducking" and other stupid autocorrects that I did not intend. I can type well enough and if not, that's on me. But autocorrect makes worse errors than I do. I usually proof read my texts anyways, so that should catch 99% of all preventable errors.

          Add those words to your dictionary to stop them from autocorrecting. You can also add them as a contact and it will autocorrect towards that word, so I can get my phone to want to correct to “fucking”.

            I've been doing that for half a year or so. It's still shit, so I'm giving up on autocorrect.

              Autocorrect on the phone, suggestions on computer. Grammar check is junk, though, as 95% of the world isn't - checks notes - American, and don't follow the prophet Webster.

                No, my keyboard doesn't support it, and I don't much like it, anyways. It forces me to slow down slightly and re-read what I wrote.

                  I'm rooted as well, but holding on to android 12 for dear life. So far the future releases bring a lot of unnecessary garbage and restrictions, and no real improvements.

                    I turned everything off about 2 years ago after getting annoyed by autocorrect making more mistakes than me. I like that the keyboard takes up less space and my typing has improved dramatically since then. I can type whole paragraphs now without making a single typo.
                    I regret nothing.

                    I guess it's worth the effort for me then I've let FUTO keyboard do corrections for me but since I switch between languages all the time the autocorrect messing up every single word.

                      No, because it fucks up everything and annoys me. It also tries to censor me. The bastard.
