I hope rants are allowed on r/apple... didn't see anything about it in the rules.
My iOS keyboard has new behavior since a few days ago. I have most of the QOL features turned off because I sometimes mix different languages, use abbreviations and sometimes need to communicate scientific names/concepts that aren't saved in dictionaries. I do like the "predictive" option because it saves me from typing commonly used words. Apparently there is now an auto-fill feature that is grouped with the predictive keyboard option. So, if I type "Backe" (german for cheek) but iOS thinks the most likely word I am writing is "backed" it will automatically add a "d" when I hit space.

THIS
Please for the love of god put all the auto-correct / auto-format / auto-fill / auto-bulls*** options separately from the other QOL options. Predictive text options IS NOT the same as typing things automatically for me. It should never be combined.
Anybody else experiencing this frustration? Does anybody have a workaround? I have never really experimented with custom keyboards before but maybe I should.
SwiftKey. Never look back.
like swiftkey but is there a way to get it to show emoji when I type a word? That is one thing I use all the time in ios keyboard. So if I type "lol" the laughing emoji will show up in the suggestions at top. Or if I type "Omg" or "sad" or "cry" etc
As someone who’s used swift key on android it’s hard to use it on iOS because of all the missing features
I much prefer it and I use it too and it's good... but it can have issues too. Particularly around auto switching to a longer word. It should never, ever do this. Drives me crazy. But, I did try going back to the Apple keyboard after the new iOS but it sucked so hard I gratefully ran back to SwiftKey
