Turn off auto correction for Scribble

Hi,


I think scribble is a great feature, but unfortunately its unusable for me. It can even get my name or my boyfriends name correctly. It always autocorrects it. How can I turn off the auto correction? In the settings > keyboard it's off, but I find no such setting for Scribble.

Thanks

iPad Pro, iPadOS 13

Oh my god!!! I know right... this is soooooo annoying, I can't type in bahasa Malaysia as it keep on correcting my words. Really hope that they can disable this auto correct function.

I’m having this exact problem. I use my ipad to take notes and i was super excited for the Scribble feature, since using the keyboard on the ipad is a bit inconvenient when you’re also drawing with the apple pencil. However, much of my note-taking involves abbreviations, not very commonly used science jargon, and just convenient short hand for myself, so it’s been impossible to use scribble. Please just allow us to turn off the autocorrect feature for this. Simple letter recognition should be enough for my handwriting - I’m willing to accept the need for better handwriting in exchange for freedom during note-taking.
