I'd add "don't screw with the inputs" I hate it when an app assumes I'm an idiot producing typos half the time, and fighting the autocorrect then wastes more t

  iOS autocorrect is rapidly approaching the point where it is more of a hindrance than a help. I'm really shocked at the decline over the last couple of years, the most frequent issue is that it appears to be looking at the context, incorrectly understanding it and flipping it's/its, well/we'll, ill/I'll. It is insistent too, so if you hit delete a couple of times and re-type what you wrote it'll perform the same transformation.

    It's so bad that I installed Gboard instead recently (never was an Android fan, but used it for a while). But I'm not sure if it's better, e.g. typing code snippets on it is pain. And there is a little detail in this that I'm questioning my sanity sometimes. The "fact" is that maybe iOS changed the detection point of a tap at some old release, because I was able to type perfectly on iOS 4..6, but then with 7 suddenly started to make typos everywhere. On Gboard now I can't type few words without making a mistake in every one of them. As if it was made to show me that I'm unable to type and need it so bad.
