- Mirioron 5y agoIt does for me: Apple gets automatically capitalized by my phone when swyping. That's about it though.
- codetrotter 5y agoI ate an apple. My favorite fruit is apple. I have an apple in my backpack. The teacher has an apple on her desk. I saw an Apple. I picked up an Apple. I threw the Apple away. I mean the Apple fruit. Hehe, the autocorrect was smart enough to understand some places where it shouldn’t capitalize the word “Apple”, but it mistakingly capitalized the word for a lot of sentences as well. In all of the sentences in the paragraph above I wanted the lowercase variant. I am typing this on an Apple iPhone.
