Is there a way to disable autocorrect?
It is incredibly annoying, can it be disabled?

Autocorrect finally figured out I was NOT trying to type duck! It was never going to be duck!

Common problem that confounds even the savviest of users.
You probably have the wrong feature enabled. You have autowrong turned on which seems to actually be the default for everything.

 This is my favorite. I spent the day at Hallett Raceway just before they finally installed a tunnel so allow people to come in and leave whenever. That is me on the far right and not blurry. I blurred the other guys since I have no permission to use their pictures. I sat in my car giggling for several minutes before they opened the gate.  From the internet. Not mine.

Google your phone type and add disable autocorrect
E.g., "Galaxy X15 disable autocorrect" You are going to maybe find you are not the typer on a tiny keyboard you think you are.

I don't think so Bob, but I guess I will find out, hopefully.
Maybe not. Google gave me instructions, but they don't match the phone

Are use voice to text a lot. It seems to be hit or miss.
^^^ See. That’s supposed to say, I use voice to text a lot. Maybe it thought I was a pirate. Arghhh, matey! The other issues are adding commas when not needed, and capitalizing letters randomly. |

Firefox suggests ten words not even in the English language, and ignores the word a single letter off.
