That's what happens when you put your trust in autocorrect: you lose all the thrust ))))

I've turned off the autocorrect, and now I get all kinds of stupid touch interface mistypes, and lose time over correcting them, but at least i'm not miscorrected all the time.

the most infuriating thing is that autocorrect sometimes inputs a correct word, but THEN changes in to another when you continue typing. Aaaargh. That is further complicated by my dependence on swipe-typing on smartphones. It works 98% of the time, but the remaining 2% might come out embarassing :(
What I want to know, that I haven't seen someone mention yet, is why autocorrect or whatever (on Android) inserts periods in my text sometimes and won't quit.
