That's just awful design. Another quirk is that it can autocorrect the last word you typed when you press "send". Sometimes I proofread myself and still end up bitten by the autocorrect because it changed something when I pressed "send".
On Android when you backspace once after an autocorrect it reverts the autocorrect. It's not great but still better than what iOS does.
- davidbarker 5y agoThis happens to me, too. It’s particularly annoying when writing a tweet. I’ll correct a misspelling and — presumably as the text field loses focus when I tap on the “Tweet” button — it’ll change the word back to the misspelled version and use that for the tweet text.
