Obviously this is only two datapoints, but it seems like it's overweighting the last word instead of basing it off of the full content

  I don't think it's actually auto-correcting, it's offering an emoji option in the word suggestions that matches your last typed word (if there is one) and allows you to select it to replace the previously typed word. As far as I know it doesn't auto-replace anything you typed with an emoji with the exception of the old basic smileys.

It’s actually not _predicting_ what emoji you want. There’s aliases assigned to each emoji and you are presented with the options based on the last word you typed. You might know this already, but how Apple has coded it is it’ll replace the last word with an emoji unless you put a trailing space. But if you put down a space first it’ll add the emoji. So in your examples you would write “I hope tomorrow is sunny pray” and choose the emoji and it will be “I hope tomorrow is sunny :pray:”

  This is a very reasonable way for it to work IMO. OP wants it to.. guess based on context? That’s going to be wrong more often than right.. Reasonable ask if they want it to auto-suggest emoji based on message history though.

    the OP doesn't want it to guess at all
