I remember like seven years ago my android keyboard's autocorrect was completely fine? Not only would it seem to remember my common finger slip-induced typos and correct them on sight, but it could also autocorrect typos with numbers in them, ie recognizing "3" as a missed "e", etc

But nowadays my autocorrect fucking sucks rank ass? It's awful at guessing the correction for typos as it looks like (to me) it only uses the first letter as the basis for autocorrect, and if I mistyped the first letter then I'm shit out of luck for autocorrect picking up, like there's absolutely no way it could possibly guess what I mean when I say "I want vurgers for dinner"

But somehow it's gotten even WORSE than just bad at its job lately? I've had regular instances of the autocorrect changing a correctly spelled and grammatically correct word to something completely different. Just yesterday it autocorrected the word 'with' in the middle of a sentence to 'WI', as in the acronym for Wisconsin.

what is the point of making your basic functionality shittier? to sell premium keyboard apps? jesus christ
