Auto Correction Syndrome (Illness) 

Auto Correction Syndrome is when you can't help but correct a person in public or private when they mispronounce a word, name or place etc

Autocorrecting 

When you are talking or telling a story and someone in your group keeps interrupting you and correcting grammar mistakes or details about your story.

For instance, if you were telling a story about a gray car and the person says, “actually it was silver” and you continue with your story and mention that it was on Wednesday and that person says, “actually it was on a Thursday” and you continue and say that it occurred in the evening and they interrupt and say “actually it was in the late afternoon.”

Then you tell them to stop autocorrecting you.
Sophia if you don’t stop autocorrecting me I’m gonna knock you out.

Liv, you would have a lot more friends if you didn’t autocorrect people all the time.
