Why does anyone let autocorrect actually change their words? Just let it suggest a correction and pick it, are people really this lazy?

- whitehouse3 7y agoBecause autocorrect is opt-out, not opt-in. The space key is used to confirm an autocorrection, on iPhone at least. To avoid it you need to explicitly tap the “verbatim” autocorrect choice. 9/10 times I don’t even notice autocorrect. It’s jarring when I need to go fix it.
- bluGill 7y agoIn many cases the default is auto correct will pick the word it thinks you want. Unless you turn it off there is no way to force a different word once it has made a choice. Depends on the keyboard of course, but there really isn't a good override by default.
