'Ducking hell' to disappear from Apple autocorrect
By Shiona McCallumTechnology reporter
Apple has said it will no longer automatically change one of The Most common swear words to 'ducking'.
The autocorrect feature, which has long frustrated users, will soon be able to use AI to detect when you really mean to use that expletive.

The autocorrect change will be part of the iOS 17 Operating System upgrades which are expected to be available as a public beta In July , with The General release in September.
It should mean that iPadOS 17 also carries the new function.
