Turning off the auto-capitalization of the initial character of the keyboard in iOS? Flutter

Question

I'm using Flutter, and I'm building a login screen. The default behavior of the keyboard on iOS seems to auto-uppercase the initial character. I'd like to turn that off. How do I do it?

Answer 1

iOS auto-capitalizes the first letter when a word is a proper noun, e.g. Matt or Brazil.

So, when you type a dot in an email address, you are effectively creating a word and iOS wants to "correct" it.

You can turn this off with

autocorrect: false

in a TextField or TextFormField widget.
