Voice dictation changes first letter of first sentence from capital to lowercase

When using voice dictation in Notes app, the first sentence will start out correctly, with a capital letter. But when I turn voice dictation off, it gets changed to a lowercase letter. There have been quite a number of posts about this over the years with people asking the same question…

So, I posted the above question because I was frustrated with the number of times it’s been asked here. Voice dictation is a really necessary feature for some people. Luckily, Reddit had a fix that’s worked for me: Under General > Keyboard, turn auto-capitalization and auto-correction off, then reboot the phone and turn them back on again. Worked for me, hope it will work for you too.
