Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference to kick off June 10 at 10 a.m. PDT with Keynote address

The Keynote will be available to stream on apple.com, the Apple Developer app, the Apple TV app, and the Apple YouTube channel. On-demand playback will be available after the conclusion of the stream.

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

since last update dictation adds unnecessary punctuation iPhone8

Since the last update using dictation in text or email

dictation adds commas like crazy where I did not dictate a comma or pause while speaking


adds question marks without me dictating "question mark" to any change in tone



just taking a lot of liberties with punctuation


is there a new setting or feature for that?

where do I find it to adjust it?

I'd prefer punctuation on command



thank you


iPhone 8, iOS 16
