Let us turn off autocorrect on Scribble

This is annoying. I can't write my name. I can't write my character names. I play online fantasy games. Ican I take notes because most of the words are made up. Just let us deactivate autocorrect please :(

How to actually turn off Auto Correct So, I turned off Auto Correct a long time ago. But! It still autocorrects my sentences. Specifically, when typing a sentence, it will replace the next to last word with a completely new word. With autocorrect off, it shouldn’t change anything, but it does. I’ve looked for more settings that may be autocorrect related, but am at a loss. I use slide to type, which can be problematic without autocorrect, but I’m fine deleting what I need and switching to hunt and peck. But, when everything is spelled perfectly and every word is chosen as desired, autocorrect jumps in and decides that the second to last word was wrong and needs to be changed…even though autocorrect is off. How do I get rid of this? I know it happens in Messages all the time. I’m not sure if it happens in any other app.

iPad OS Feature Request - please add toggle to disable autocorrection for scribble as needed I think scribble could be great for my needs. The potential to ween me off my habit of using good ol' pen and paper as a "buffer" and being able to capture and digitize that text is exciting. However, I'm an IT systems admin and developer by trade, so much of what I "scribble" down on my ipad, scribble identifies as wrong and autocorrects it. My writing is legible enough that scribble captures it far better than I expect, only to then convert what I mean to what seems to be correct with regards to grammar and spelling. In my opinin, scribble's not very good at technical writing. I can't use it as I see fit, because I cannot turn off autocorrection. And I've seen MANY like posts elsewhere since late 2020 I think? Apple, please add a toggle for this. There's a lot more people, like me, who can make good use of scribble if only we could disable the virtual nanny. No fancy libraries needed for autocorrect, just let us turn it off when we don't need it. Please and thanks!

why does autocorrect on ios 17.6.1 still correct even after i cancel out the suggestion When typing a word and it suggests another spelling, I click the "X" and normally (on old iOS) it wouldn't correct after you hit the space bar. However, on this iOS even after you cancel and hit the space bar it will still change the word to what you didn't want. What setting or option is this or can we get it changed back? Because this has got to be the most annoying thing apple has done to date.

Apple invites submission of feature requests via its Product Feedback portal. If you would like to see additional functionality in a future version of iPadOS, this would be the most appropriate channel through which to make a request:
