User level: Level 1 (10 points)How do I turn off auto punctuation while using speak to text iOS 27 iPhone 16E. This auto punctuation in the latest iOS update is putting punctuation in all the wrong places every single time I use speak to text.

Thank you but it is already off. And oddly Apple has removed the 'Auto Punctuation' toggle (because that would be too easy 🤦♀️
I'm glad I'm not the only one who is as annoyed as **** with this 'bug' (that I hope they will squash very soon!). C'mon Apple, do better 😕

There are no techs from Apple on these boards. If you want to give feedback...
