Works fine for me. (…20 characters)

@pvuorela I checked it again right now, and this time it also works great at my device, too. It has fixed itself. Will observe today and if it continues working fine then I’ll delete this bug report.

For me the removing of space works in Jolla’s/native apps.

On the Android apps it doesnt work.

I tested in few apps on both sides.

X10III 5.5.0.62

I have the same issue but it’s limited to Android apps such as K-9 Mail, the browser or Threema.

I tested again, in fact it’s still there but affects only Android apps.

Can confirm on my 10III. Also, after ending a message with an Emoji, next text input won’t be capitalized automatically (so far observed in Android apps only).

Not sure if this is also related, but I just observed that when having selected a wrong suggestion from the dictionary, it helps to just delete the last character (removing the automatically added space after the word) and typing the first different, correct character - it will trigger the dict suggestions again, where it’s possible to select the correct word, which will entirely overwrite the already (and still written) incorrect word.
