I've been fighting for probably a full decade at this point to get Swiftkey to stop turning "ok" into "OK" and making me look like either a geriatric or a lunatic. It doesn't matter how many times I tell it to stop predicting it it keeps happening.


Similarly: I cannot convince Swiftkey to stop correcting "whole" into "whore". L and R are next to each other on the Dvorak layout, so I get it, but it does not matter how many times I tell it to never correct to whore, it for some reason always prefers that over whole...


It is baffling to me that they have the "don't predict this" button that clearly doesn't actually do that. It has behaved this way forever, so it must be behaving as intended or else they would've fixed it by now. But I can't puzzle out what that button is actually intended to do.
