iPhone users complain Apple's autocorrect is 'ruining their lives' in the ... trends now
iPhone users have slammed Apple's 'atrocious' autocorrect feature amidst allegations that it has got 'worse and worse' following the most recent iOS updates.
Complaints surrounding Apple's autocorrect function have flooded Twitter over the past few days with users claiming that it wrongly alters words in typed texts.
One social media user claimed that her device attempted to change 'burden' to 'Biden' when typing, while another alleged her phone always adds a 'z' when trying to select an apostrophe.
'Not trying to sound dramatic but iPhone autocorrect is literally ruining my life,' one person tweeted.
Another added: 'Is it me or is iPhone autocorrect actually atrocious? It keeps correcting words that are spelled correctly to a better meaning (ie food to good) even tho I had it correct?'

Others also suggested that the options to choose from within Apple's predictive text menu were not relevant to what they were typing.
One person said: 'Another iPhone gripe: predictive text and autocorrect. When I type "thats", I expect the middle option to be "that’s", not "that sounds".
'Also, I cannot type "omw" without Apple absolutely insisting that I want to say "On my way!". I have to go out of my way to choose otherwise.'
Another tweeted: 'Will someone tell my iPhone/what’s app predictive text function that with a child in nursery I type "ill" more than I do "I’ll" so stop trying to make me say it.'
