Description

Most messaging apps automatically accept the current autocorrect suggestion on send. Without this behavior, users are prone to ending their messages with a big typo, especially if you're used to using other apps.

I probably don't have bandwidth to fix this myself, but if anyone has pointers on where to get started, that would be helpful!
