NGL, as someone who constantly types out and repeatedly revises pointless forum post replies like this one, a revamped auto correct system is probably my most anticipated iOS 17 feature.

It's better, but (at least the early version) still isn't awesome. It feels like it's guessing too hard. I wish there was more emphasis on distance to my original input.

The most annoying issue I've encountered are instances where I'm trying to replace text in the middle of a post in order to rephrase a sentence I've already written. I highlight the word and start typing a replacement, but autocorrect clings onto the old word, and when I press space, I end up with both words mashed together instead of just the new word. I have no idea what causes it or even how to replicate it because it isn't consistent, but it baffles me why it occurs.
