Why did apple change numbers where it auto corrects 20 to 2-0 and 30 to 3-0 and so on?

Who types out 2-0 more often than the number 20 or for any other digit divisible by 10? Am I actually the weird one who rarely types out 2-0 or something?

what i wonder is why Apple and other phone mfg's allow the N word to be typed on their phones if the word is so bad. great way to curb the use of it.

20 to 30

No auto correct for me. 2-0 and 3-0 didn’t even come up in predictive text.

When I type 20, it changes to 2.0 every time.

I just saw this in a forum

quote:

I believe a Reddit post has the answer! The autocorrect is trying to match app names in the autocorrect. So if you have an app installed with 5-0 or 2.0, the phone is using those app names as a dictionary. The “fix” was to delete those apps AND restart the phone after deleting the apps. This has been an extremely frustrating problem.
Another solution is to go into your keyboard settings and add 20 and 20 for phrase and shortcut under text replacement. Should work.

I have no idea what you’re talking about, but auto correct is the best thing, and also the most aggravating thing there is
