The perils of predictive texting ..

[Mk2Jo]

We've probably all done it ... typed in a word and the predictive text has changed it something else for you Funny or annoying? I guess it depends on your sense of humour or your urgency to send the message

 

So. let's hear your predictive texts And did you catch them before you sent them?

 

I'll start:

 

Prawn Curry came out Spawn Curry

 

Rubic Cube came out Pubic Cube

Kinna like the time i texted my dad

 

Dad just nipping out to get COAL. do you need anything?

 

predictive text decided it wasnt coal i wanted and i never checked while typing. He rang me asking when i came out....

 

(try typing it in to see what the alternatives are)

Mine came out as coal although looking down the list of possibles I see what you mean.

[FredTransit]

Can't get it to work, turned it on on a spare phone and it's just garbage, which is why I don't use it. Is there supposed to be a list of options then? I got some work beginning with a, so can kind of guess

Thats about right!!!

My mates girlfriend was upest about her aunt being ill not long before christmas. The predictive text on my phone picks up on the most commonly used word for that combination of button presses (im sure most do!)

I text her trying to be thoughtful.....'Hi, hows your aunt?'

I dont use the word aunt very often, very embarassing

I hate normal texting! hate pressing the bloody button 4 times to get one letter predictive text i love that but always read the before i send them!!

 

i text my girlfriend so much and i always put xxx on the end of the text, i sometimes put xxx when im texting my mates cos im used to sending it at an end of a text.

 

lmao at 'COAL'

[FredTransit]

Honestly I can't get it to work, I don't get any word I want! Mind you I won't use txt spk either, everything I text is spelled properly.

"Fancy getting food in the Crown"
