But the tech giant has announced that iOS will soon realise it’s not a mistake at all and leave the rude words where they should be.
“In those moments where you just want to type a ducking word, well, the keyboard will learn it, too,” Apple’s software chief Craig Federighi said.
The much-needed change is expected to arrive in iOS 17 which will launch in autumn as a free upgrade for iPhones.
Users have took to social media to welcome the move, saying “it’s about ducking time”.
“awww duck yeahh!!,” one wrote on Twitter.
“let’s go, no more autocorrect issues (hopefully)!”
Another said: “iPhone autocorrect finally gives a duck!”
And a third commented: “Wait. So my iPhone will no longer automatically switch to ducking??”

This includes updates to the Phone and Messages apps, new AirDrop features and changes to Siri so you no longer have to say “Hey” at the beginning.
