conference or coverage is not there. (you need to take into account that autocorrect can change the number of letters)

This is a list of the candidates that would be the intermediate step. Autocorrect wouldn't map a typed sequence to a misspelling unless it was already stored as an approved word. Instead, he appears to have accepted a word as typed. If he'd mistyped "coverage", it wouldn't directly map to "covfefe". He might have intended "coverage", but he typed near "covered".
