Why wouldn’t they use the same dictionary?
The google servers have access to a lot more resources than our puny little phones.
Whilst technically true, consider just how many CPU cycles Google wants to spend on your search query. In reality, as little as possible.
I’d be pretty comfortable in guestimating that the resources on your phone vastly exceed that.
Source: I write software for a living.
May have more resources but I suspect googles servers also have some fantastic caches of common misspelling based on what your locale is and what most people are searching for.
A lot of that derived from aggregate data of searches that were more likely to be engaged with or lead to click through.
That kind of data could be used on a phone if they wanted to download a large cache of it every so often but since it could be time and location dependent.

Right now… Olympics.

A few months from now and you’re in Washington state. Maybe you want Olympus?
-
Recent searches for diabetes… Ozempic?
Some of that is just too hard to reasonable calculate and cache on a mobile device.
I would add that it’s way more efficient because Google doesn’t have everyone using it mistyping all at once. So they can save up CPU cycles until they need them.

Google Keyboard usually gets its/it’s wrong for me as well, but somehow it always gets bourgeoisie right.
It’s confirmed: Google Keyboard is sentient and it’s a socialist!
KEYBOARDS RISE UP!!!
You may be onto something: mine gets ‘enshittification’ like a badass.
Autocorrect has gotten worse and worse. I can transpose two letters and it won’t suggest the right word, but it’ll suggest the right word with an apostrophe and an S that makes no sense. It’s not wonder so many people think plurals need apos’trophe’s.
Get one with a swiping feature (not sure if yours has it already). They are way more accurate with autocorrect. I think I used SwiftKey when I was on Android
The standard Google keyboard has a good swipe, but sometimes needs to be activated.
It’s WAY better to swipe on the Google keyboard vs pecking at it.
Good place to ask I guess.
Does anyone have a keyboard or text app they think nails this? Android I’d love to check it out. Don’t mind if it’s a cost but I don’t want a subscription for my text app
It’s a calculated scheme to get you to do a search for “aniprrsperient” so they can sell you deodorant
