        @happyzenith A long standing bug, hopefully will be dealt with on 16.04 XENIAL.

        Has anybody filed an issue for it?

              @happyzenith On my M10 HD tablet, I've discovered that if you go to System Settings, Language & Text and turn of all the autocorrect features the "last word typed" problem no longer persists.

                @dtarrant I should have typed β€œturn off". Sorry, my bad.

                  @dtarrant just in case you don't know it, you can edit your posts clicking on those three dots in a vertical row on the right hand side.

                      I occasionally get something similar especially in sailbook when tag who I am responding to and type a comma after the name, it repeats part of the name, which is hard to edit as backspace tends to remove part of the highlighted name. This is very difficult to correct, but easier now I know to hold down the spacebar and slide my finger along it to move the cursor position.

                        This happened to me also using some webapps, very very annoying

                          I get this all the time using my OnePlus One and my M10, when using web apps or the browser. I have a continual sync issue with my Telegram, so I have to use the web app version. The only thing that I have found resolves this is to add a space at the end of the last word. A bit of a pain but better than deleting the long last word. I hope this is resolved soon.

                            This fixed it for me on bq M10 HD tablet and bq aquarius E4.5 (tested on https://cryptpad.fr which was really annoying to use before) - thanks for the workaround, @dtarrant !

                                @happyzenith Hi which device are you using?

                                I'm using a Meizu MX4 with 15.04(r).

                                Cool, thanks. I've turned off spell checking and word suggestions (and left auto correction on) and it seems to have worked πŸ˜„ Now all I've got to do is remember how to spell everything!

                                    Ah a link. Thanks @Flohack !

                                    Seems this issue had a complicated history of being closed or not. I guess if the original reproduction still applies it should be reopened. If it's not the same, or not sure it's the same, someone should open a new one.

                                      We dont reopen this, since it was applied to the master branch and therefore will land only in 16.04 OTA-4.
