Ask HN: Why, during the year 2023, does iOS still autocorrect .com to .con?
One of my biggest pet peeves is the iPhone/iOS autocorrect constantly being wrong, and changing correct spelling to something else it "thinks" I'm trying to write.
The biggest offender has to be when I'm typing out web addresses in various apps. It constantly changes ".com" to ".con". It's mildly infuriating that we're on the precipice of going to Mars yet the iPhone doesn't know that web addresses end in .com
Can anyone shed light on why this issue is so hard? (the engineers at Apple are much smarter than me, so there must be a reason)
