Apple will no longer auto-correct Fu*k’ to ‘Duck’ 

Jun 7 2023 Share

For years, users of Apple devices have experienced the unintended substitution of words when typing profanities.

Among the most common and notorious examples was the replacement of ‘fu*k’ with ‘duck’. While Apple implemented auto-correct as a feature to assist users in avoiding spelling errors and enhancing typing speed, the system’s tendency to alter certain words led to countless amusing, embarrassing, and sometimes even awkward situations.

Acknowledging the dissatisfaction of its user base, Apple has taken note of the frustration caused by the auto-correct issue. With the upcoming iOS 17 software, the tech giant is determined to rectify this long-standing problem and provide users with an improved and more accurate typing experience.

The enhanced auto-correct feature in iOS 17 will enable users to type profanities without the constant interference of word substitutions. The notorious ‘fu*k to duck’ swap will no longer occur, granting individuals the freedom to express themselves more explicitly.

As news of Apple’s auto-correct update spreads, opinions regarding the upcoming change are varied. A significant number of Apple fans are overjoyed with the forthcoming modification, expressing gratitude for the company’s responsiveness to their complaints. They believe the update will enhance their texting experience and allow for more authentic expression.

However, not everyone is equally thrilled about the impending change. Some users have grown accustomed to the auto-correct quirks, even finding humor in the ‘duck’ substitution. For them, the unintentional comedic value provided by the auto-correct feature will be missed. While a minor inconvenience for some, it added an element of amusement to their daily communication.

With the iOS 17 update on the horizon, Apple users are eagerly awaiting the opportunity to bid farewell to the ‘fu*k to duck’ auto-correct conundrum.

Allen’s grandmother passes away with leukaemia

Allen’s grandmother passes away with leukaemia
Jun 6 2023 Share

Love Island Malta contestant Allen received the tragic news that his grandmother has passed away after having been diagnosed with leukaemia. 

Allen received the tragic news that his beloved grandmother had received the diagnosis before he entered the villa and that he dreaded the scenario wherein anything would happen to her. 

Unfortunately, this came to pass, with the contestant receiving the news whilst in the villa.

The other contestants comforted Allen as he dealt with the news, with his villa couple-contestant Chelsea also doing so despite the two going through the rough patch. Albeit being a devastating news for Allen, the moment showed the bond the contestants developed during their time in the villa as they came together to support him during such a time. 

On behalf of MaltaDaily, we wish Allen and his family the sincerest of condolences.
