My (iphone) phone has Tourettes. It changed "xox" (short hand for, kiss hug kiss) into "Cox" and "Awwww" into "Sewers". Naturally I vomited at this filth belted out by my sweary phone. The "auto-corrects" happen at the very last moment just as one hits "send".
Oh, and the iPhone never learned - sometimes I sign my name as Jim and every single freaking time the damned iPhone wanted to correct "Jim" to "Him" or "Kim" aaargh! And the little x to get rid of the retarded suggestion is so tiny - why can't they make that X bigger so it's easier to get rid of the mental auto-correct? I know why, because trendy designers prefer form over function - a big X might be ugly - the Gods forbid. Designers/marketroids - the b*st8rds! Well here's some news marketroids, that was my last iPhone - little things mean a lot to me!
Actually the main reason for dumping iPhone is that Apple are control freaks and their ecosystem is closed, I prefer freedom - open systems, and Android is free-er. But kudos to Apple for single handedly making Microsoft irrelevant.
Mines has been doing same. A text from anyone turns into a repeated noise and words are changing too. I've now got to perform a total revamp of setting as Apple say it could just be a bug. If its not that I've got to take myself through to Glasgowjust for them to look at the blooming thing. It's driving me nuts!
