Autocorrect

I just spent the last 5minutes laughing, reading through damnyouautorrect.com posts. Next time I have one of these funny autocorrect moments, I’ll make sure to screenshot it.

  3. Many of those autocorrections come because people would like to write in “chat slang” but fail to erase the suggestion for the “correct” word and thus fail to add their intended word into the dictionary.

    Another reason is only applicable for people who use more than one language. The iPhone uses different dictionaries according to your selected keyboard layout (=language setting).

  6. I had a good one… I wanted to write “hey you guys” to my two homosexual friends and instead it came out…. “hey you gays” ! How did my iPhone know?

  7. Any followup text that includes “damn you iphone” or “damn auto-correct” should be free of charge.
