Most Android keyboards have auto-capitalization enabled by default. This means that the first letter of each sentence is automatically capitalized. While this can be handy in some situations, it can also be annoying if you don’t want every sentence to start with a capital letter.
Fortunately, it’s easy to change the auto-capitalization setting on your Android device.
- Open the Settings app on your Android device 2
- Tap on System 3
- Tap on Languages & input 4
- Tap on Virtual keyboard 5
- Tap on Google Keyboard (or the keyboard you’re using) 6
- Tap on Text correction 7
- Turn off Auto-capitalization
