Daily News | For duck’s sake: Apple’s new update fixes an age-old autocorrect error
Developers said Monday
that the new iOS 17 iPhone software — which will roll out later this year — will fix an age-old autocorrect error that swapped a popular four-letter expletive out for the rhyming word, “duck.” For years, the quirk has challenged iPhone users, prompting snarky criticism, memes, and even merch about Apple’s attempt to sanitize passionate prose.
“In those moments where you just want to type a ducking word, well, the keyboard will learn it, too,” Craig Federighi, Apple’s software chief, said during a presentation at the Worldwide Developers Conference.
