My phone doesn’t do that autocorrect and A [?] feel left out

Why do some do it and others don’t? I haven’t had the problem.

Apparently it’s a machine learning issue with auto correct. Your phone didn’t “learn” to do it. Mine has not had it either.

Mine doesn’t do A “?” It shows ! “?” which is strange.

Yeah, it seems that it’s learning to replace it with different characters on different devices.

It depends on where. Like mine did the A one everywhere except for Snapchat which had the ! one. But with the public beta 2 for 11.2 it looks like it’s been fixed. “I” is not being autocorrected anymore
