How to stop random capitalisation of mid-sentence words

Within the last month, I've noticed a big uptick in the number of words Apple auto caps. Some of the words are natural, like "May", even though the word wasn't used in the proper context and "may" is way more common than "May". Other words aren't even names, they're just randomly capitalised words. I can't turn off Auto-Capitalization because it will stop capitalising the first word of each sentence.


I guess this is less of a question of how to stop it, because I'm pretty sure there's no answer. It's more of a plea to Apple to fix this feature and possibly divide the feature into two functions: one that operates all of the time and one that operates only when preceded by a sentence ending punctuation.

Thanks. I couldn't find a way to provide the feedback. The only thing I could find was Support and they were focused on fixing the issue (which they can't).

Hi scottw703,


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities! We'd be glad to help point you in the right direction. We understand that you're concerned about the Auto-Capitalization feature on your iPhone. While you're not able to adjust which words are capitalized, we'd recommend leaving your feedback directly to Apple instead. You may let them know more about this in further details at Product Feedback.


Cheers!
