Is it just me? (Autocorrect)

[Michie]

Don’t want to get into a theological discussion here as it is not allowed in the junk drawer or the kitchen sink. But just an odd observation on my end, when you type out God…and it’s misspelled, you look for the words to correct it and the word, (God) is never there as an option on my phone. It’s always gad, gif, gif, etc. is it just me? Or have others experienced this too? I just find it odd when every other word seems to be readily available.

Just tried. Same here. Hmm.,.

Same here.

 

[RileyG]

Same here.

I wonder why that is?

Good question. Maybe we should ask George.

You can get the most obscure word. God? Nope. Odd.

I think it’s my iPhone and not just on here.

I have found that the autocorrect program doesn’t initially show the word I am misspelling and often “corrects” it to the wrong word, but after using it several times it seems to use that word as one of the suggestions.

I haven't used autocorrect for God, but then I don’t often misspell it, and I never rely on the predictive text to write things.

Ah, yes! I have gone down memory lane with George since returning. LOL. There are a lot of George’s and I just wasn’t sure which one you were referring to.

Yep. I did the same. Had a blast talking with him.
