Autocomplete breaks message previews #47

Closed andmcadams closed 4 years ago

andmcadams commented 4 years ago

Since message previews are removed when a message with the same text is sent, autocomplete changes the text and makes them no longer match. This happens with auto-emoji, autocomplete, and spellcheck. A rough solution would be to disable all of these on the Mac message app, which may or may not be doable. Alternatively, a new way to check for messages that match previews may be a worthwhile time investment.

Rough fix is to go to Messages app then select the Edit menu. Go to Edit -> Substitutions -> Text Replacement and uncheck.

This is going to be a rather complicated fix for minimal gain over just turning off text replacement on the Mac. Setting to wontfix for now.
