How to stop autocorrect from changing words backward while typing on my iPhone 15 Pro Max?

This misunderstands the question. Autocorrect for the word I am typing is fine. I don’t want to shut that off. It’s the reach back twenty words later that I want to shut off.

I can catch this happening when the word changes that I am writing.

I cannot always catch when it goes back and changes words that were typed early in the sentence or even in previous sentences.

it’s particularly bad with prepositions and tense.

Something as simple ‘I pretended to be …’ becomes ‘I pretends to be …’ This happens 20 words down the sentence or as you hit send on a text.

Other common ones are the universal change from on to in. My personal favorite is watch ‘the’ turn into ‘gelbe’.

Again, when this happens while or immediately after I type a word, it can be caught.

When it happens twenty words previously? When the Tet Offensive (spelled correctly), magically becomes the Yet Offensive? The Tet Offensive was fought … The Yet Offensive is fought … and it changes as you move in to the Battle of Hue … An entire sentence will autocorrect into gibberish. These kinds of post hoc corrections are extremely unhelpful.

It’s that reach back correction that is driving me nuts.

That’s been done, repeatedly.

We’ve also been directed to submit bug reports, which never get a response, and appear to be queueing engineers to make the problem worse.

This is the point in the conversation where the ‘how dare you report a prince’ kicks in.

Again, autocorrect on the word is fine. Autocorrect on previous sentences is not.

Resetting the system does nothing. Nor does it seem like the dictionary would have any effect on the scope of auto correct.

If there is no fix to this, how do we get this to an engineers, or frankly anyone, who will actually look at and resolve the problem?

It’s incredibly annoying.
