Hi, Johnathon, Actually, I’d like to correct you on one thing. If you recall, there’s a bug in iOS 8 where if you’re correcting a spelling mistake you made, and you insert a letter that’s also a contraction, the letter would get expanded into said contraction. That’s been fixed, as far as I could tell.
