Predictive text add space at end of word - how to stop

I have auto-correction turned on. If I select a predicted text, “mister”, the string “mister “ is inserted in the text. Note the extra space at end. How do I stop this from happening ? In 99% of the cases, I just want the correction, not the spacer.

When predictive text suggests word, I can't delete/backspace on word I'm typing? when i'm typing a sentence and i have a typo, predictive text assumes it's a word and suggests it (then i press the space bar and the word fill out on its own) pretty cool except for the fact that once the predicted suggestion shows up, it doesn't let me backspace/delete the typo. i have to either let the suggestion get filled in or type random letters so it can let me backspace. its honestly rather inconvenient.

Predictive text suggestions replacing my typing in Freeform app So I have been using the freeform app for a couple of weeks. While the app is quite nimble and fits in well with iPhone as well as Mac, one very frustrating thing is the automatic typing replacement that is happening whenever it predicts a word. Its "AI" generated suggestions are almost always wrong and I am not sure why Apple feels the need to assist me in typing. For example if I start typing provi.. it will replace it with provide, instead I wanted to type providential, which is really hampering the productivity. I am sure others are also facing this issue, and I couldn't find any solution out there. The solution I found was for setting<keyboard change, which is set to off for any prediction. I think this is an app feature that they are pushing to save time, instead the results are contrary. Please if anyone found a solution let me know

Need fix for extra ‘g’ when typing “ing” words This is a long-standing problem and one that many people seem to have. When typing quickly some “ing” words end up having an extra g. I don’t want to turn off auto-correct to make it go away. Does anyone have suggested fixes?
