Description
Expected behavior
The ability to revert the autocorrected word back to "tesing".
Actual behavior
No changes are made to the word.
Steps to reproduce the behavior
- Start a new Post
- Add a Heading block
- Write "I am tesing this" (note that "testing" is misspelled)
- Observe that "testing" is autocorrected and has a line under it
- Tap "testing" and observe the option to tap the original
- Choose "tesing"
Notes
This behavior doesn't occur in Paragraph blocks.
Tested on iPhone 12, iOS 17.2.1, Jetpack iOS 24.0
