What’s the tiniest thing about iOS / iPadOS / macOS that really bugs you? - The Lemmy Club

As much as I don’t like negative threads, there’s one thing in iOS that really irritates me, and I want to air it… Pressing and holding the tab button in Safari to access tab groups, should have a haptic response. Because it doesn’t, I often end up opening the tab view instead, so I have to huff a little, hit Done, then try again. I don’t know why it annoys me that it doesn’t because none of the other buttons in Safari do, but I feel like it should. No, I have not contacted Tim Apple about this. Yes, I probably should.

Spellcheck, and it perfectly encapsulates Apple’s view of their customers, that Apple knows what’s best, better than their customers. In iOS, if you have spellcheck turned on, it automatically changes your words based on what it assumes you meant. You have to actually tap the word bubble to cancel it, which seems completely ass-backwards to me. They just assume you’re the idiot and they’re right. Sometimes that’s fine, but sometimes I’m just using slang or an abbreviation or a foreign word or it completely picks the wrong word and spellcheck fucks you over.

Right, but now there’s no autocorrect at all. A middle ground would be nice.

it underlines misspelled words… works pretty good for me

The latest version of iOS changes the words if you have spellcheck on. I think it underlines the misspelled words if you have spellcheck off.

no, it only changes it with autocorrect
