A picture is worth a thousand words. This pic perfectly illustrates the joy of owning an iPhone and it’s glorious auto-incorrect function.

Just like 2020 this bastard is still carrying on with its bullshit like nothing even happened.... completely unfazed in its shitty cheap little protective case. F this year and F Apple phones which work just well enough to keep you addicted to their bullshit.

Why must you be so amazing and yet so horrific at the same time?

Looks like it was thrown against the wrong wall.

I’ve got a feeling about this thread....

That is a rather ingenious phone holder you made there.

I wasn’t taking about getting locked. It could get epic. Smile

I think it’s part of their business model, brilliance mixed with the utter stupid. It’s brilliant at times so you deal with the BS. They do make some damn strong phones...so what if it auto incorrects you over and over and over.
That’s why it’s so great

Now there's a testament to Apple's build quality if ever I've seen one!

Maybe lay off the full-octane coffee for a bit, stickman428? Just sayin'... Wink

Maybe he was playing darts with iPhones. Missing the dartboard, of course.

And no. I didn’t pull this pic off the interwebs. That’s my unscathed iPhone 7.

The auto correct function and it’s loss of logic needs to one day be held accountable

Okay, I’ll bite just because I am dying to know.

What *exactly* did it auto incorrect in order for you to do that? A screen shot or two would give this thread credibility.

Just seen on This Old House, how to build a handy Iphone holding notch in a wall.

On a more serious note, stickman428: Everybody bitches about autocorrupt. I swear at mine all the time. It's a running gag on the interwebz.

I've never intended to type the word "ducking" yet it keeps autocorrecting all the time on my phone
