It’s why my iPhone sucks, censoring the most basic swears and auto correcting my cursing. What’s worse is you can even use words like “die “ anymore.

You can setup auto completion rules to change words like ducking to fucking. What’s hilarious tho is when you actually intend to write something like ducking.

What did you do to your phone? I’ve never had any issues with mine trying to autocorrect die.

ive been wondering how to change my autocomplete setting .

It learns a bit as you type. But if you want it to forcibly recognize a word go to settings > general > keyboard > text replacement and add the words it won’t recognize. You can even add a shortcut for common typos. But it will hard override any “well you touched the edge of this key but I think you actually meant this” so use the shortcuts carefully.

Yea. Even got mine to easily type „fuck“ when using swipe-typing… You just have to be persistent for a little while

Mine actually correctly autocorrects to fucking!

You need to tap on the word in quotes in the upper left of the keyboard before you hit space to train the autocorrect on a word you intentionally typed.
