Navigate to Keyboard settings (described above) You can also use this if you frequently type technical terms autocorrect has memorized and keeps trying to replace in place of more common words. If there's a word you type infrequently that autocorrect has learned, but tends to insert when you don't want to use it instead of a more common word ("tea" instead of "the", for example), then you can use Shortcuts to put things back in order. My iPad tells me that my system understands the letters 'omw' as On my way! When I tap omw autocorrect will automatically populate what I'm writing with the words, "On my way!" You can take a little more control of it with Shortcuts. Unfortunately you can't edit contents of the dictionary iOS uses for autocorrect, so once it learns a word, you are stuck with it. Settings>General>Keyboard>Auto-correction Toggle switch to Off. You can disable autocorrect if you like, though when you do you'll probably miss it when you do. It's a triumph of convenience over good sense! What's to be done? Why? Because in future your device will suggest that word even when you want to write something else, and occasionally insert it when you're typing in a hurry (or leave your spectacles at home). Tap the Delete key, retype the last letter and the suggested word disappears.īoth those steps will get rid of the suggested word - but they also teach iOS the new word, that's great if you use that word a lot but isn't so hot if you don't use it that frequently.
Tap anywhere in the autocorrect bubble to reject the suggested word before typing anything else.
However, if the system doesn't recognize the word you type and you type a space, punctuation mark or Return then autocorrect will assume you want to use its suggested word. What happens now is that when you mistype a word autocorrect jumps in to offer what it thinks is the correct spelling you can also use this as a shortcut to complete a word.
