I mean, how do you think spelling correction works? Local on-device “reading” of text is a pretty simple feature that’s used for a bunch of stuff (detecting URLs, email addresses…)
Sure, as you do with any software. A computer is always looking at your data and input. That’s how it works. Unless you audit it yourself, you have to take someone else’s word it isn’t doing something it isn’t supposed to.
I am absolutely not an Apple Stan. I hate Apple. I’m on Linux for a reason, and my phone is running Android (which I also hate, but whatever). You’re reasoning was just bad.
While Apple’s code isn’t open-source, I believe they’ve subjected their code to third-party audit in the past for confirmation that the data isn’t being sent off-device.

haha touché, computers always invade your privacy anyway!
apple stans always with the very best reasoning.

for starters, foss code is audited collectively, not individually.
please don’t believe what apple marketing says at face value.

So kind of, but not entirely.
