Bug Description

The autocorretion ist very helfull if you write things properly in a language but if you want to use a dialect or abbreveations like "Can u go 2 the superM?" (There are better examples in Austrian dialects) it would be better to have the auto correction switched off.

The way through the System Settings is a very long one to achieve the wished behaviour.

Maybe a toggle switch on the right side of the auto-correction bar can achieve this behaviour… Or a toggle in the keyboard section of the notification area
