I'm very frustrated. When typing my extensive to do notes, I use abbreviations and I'm tired of seeing squiggles under almost all of the words.
I went to settings, devices, and turned off auto correct for spell check, but it hasn't gone away.

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:
- What is the product number of your device? Use this link to find it: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03754824
As an option, you could also add the words that keep getting corrected to your dictionary. just by right-clicking on the word.
And, also you can try our expert's workaround ( Banhien )
- Open Settings, and click/tap on the Devices icon.
- Click/tap on Typing on the left side, and turn on (default) or off Autocorrect misspelled words for what you want. (see screenshot below)
- Turn on (default) or off Highlight misspelled words for what you want. (see screenshot below)
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
