Text Replacement not working on iOS 12

I am a big text replacement user and I'm very sad to say that most of my shortcuts are not working. I've tried bring it to the apple store, doing a hard - reset, reinstalling the iOS, logging in and out of iCloud, and nothing seems to work. Anybody else experiencing this with iOS 12 and the iPhone Xs MAX?

iPhone XS Max, iOS 12.1

I actually do not think that Apple have Limited the number of characters deliberately since all the text replacements are still within the text replacement file, under settings- keyboard, - text replacement.



You can also STILL add additional text replacements that are more than 128 characters.


I’m still hopeful Apple will fix, what I believe to be a bug in the software. Regrettably, this is not the first time that we have had issues with text replacement. Just when we thought it was all over, we are faced with another regrettable an unfortunate situatioN.
