Apple rolls out fix for iPhone autocorrect bug

Still dealing with that annoying autocorrect bug on your iPhone? Apple finally has a fix.

On Thursday, Apple released a software update for iOS 11.1 fixing the bug where the device's autocorrect feature would change a lowercase "i" to an "A" with a question mark in a box.

Owners were previously able to use a workaround through the iPhone keyboard's text replacement option.
