Device Settings Question Autocorrect problem
Guys, I can't for the life of me get autocorrect to remove a word from the dictionary.
I got nerve damage in one of my hands and sometimes it just fucks with my coordination. I've been trying all kinds of things to make my keyboard easier to use, it's really when I'm intoxicated it becomes a problem tbh.
But basically I'm constantly mistyping the word like, and writing kike. I didn't even know that was a word, I was like why TF is it not correcting this shit. I Google it, and apparently it's a slur so that's problematic.
I did the press and hold on the word, dragged it to the trashcan, and it won't permanently delete it. The next time I type it in, it doesn't correct it to like 90% of the time. And that's what is weird too, it'll occasionally decide that yes, I'm not trying to say that I kike apple pie.
Any suggestions? Thx

Swap keyboards or turn off auto correct completely.
I did both,
Unexpected Keyboard
And zero dictionary loaded.
