Turned off my iphone's autocorrect but still on in pythonista. It ends up replacing a bunch of characters on the last couple of lines(current and prev) when it sees a sequence it thinks it recognizes. It particularly likes replacing underscores with other characters.

Then i have to either retype or press undo 5 or 10 times. The worst part is that it will repeat this behavior unless i make a small change to that particular line of code.

Ps--Other than this I've really enjoyed using pythonista

I have not encountered anything like what you describe, so it is certainly not normal.

Which version of Pythonista you are using?

Is the behavior consistent? Can you give us a simple sequence where this always happens? E.g. open a new file, write specific words.

I'll see if i can isolate a simple case though it seems to depend on what has been topped on my particular phones keyboard

Note that even if autocorrect is off, you might have shortcuts turned on, which might behave as you describe.

Are you using a custom keyboard?
