Yes, the "beloved" wrong spelling underline came to the handwritten Notes. Now filled with wrong suggestions from mis-understanding your handwriting, and a horrific looking "correction" that does not fit size, style, or even the line type to the original word.

Imagine taking a doctor's prescription, and highlighting with a green dotted line every word you could not quite read. That's how your notes gonna look like.

The cherry on top: it cannot be disabled. There is just no option. Can disable normal text spellcheck, but handwriting spellcheck fills your notes with underlines.

Whoever imagined this feature, either hates humanity, or does not understand that the whole purpose of handritten notes is to not be like text. I want colors, line styles, different placement, size and tilt of words. Spellchecking looks as natural there as an accountant on a student party.

Hope for a handwriting spellcheck toggle to make its way into release version, otherwise I would sadly have to look for another device for notes taking. Sincerely, a faithful handwriting Notes user from the times of iPad Pro 9.7".
