Maybe I'm an idiot, but offering a workaround until an update fixes it seems...perfectly reasonable?

I hate these updates, as it always seems to break something every time they try to fix something else.

Doesn't happen to me. iPhone X.

There seem to be a lot of random/daft bugs in the more recent iOS updates.

Is this widespread? I'm typing on my iPhone now and it's fine. Haven't seen this happen anywhere.

I've been watching what autocorrect is doing for this whole post.

I've been wondering why tf a bunch of people in my twitter feed doing this, I kind of assumed it was a meme that went over my old head :(

What is "A with a symbol"?

Doesn't happen with third party keyboards.

What am I paying you for Apple!!!! Fucks up my iPad Pro with keyboard.

Huh, didn't notice this until I saw it happen on a comment in my one of my Instagram photos

 

[Mr. Snuffleupagus]

I noticed one recently when adding a new contact - you enter First and Last names, then when you want to change the number type, the cursor jumps back up to Company and then you have to re-tap the number field to continue typing the actual phone number.

Why would this only affect some people? My 6 doesn't have this issue.
