Auto-Correction

The iPhone keyboard likes to think it's smart. After all, it learns words and grammar over time based on your typing habits. While this provides incredible convenience, sometimes automatic suggestions and autocorrect don't work as expected. If you find the iPhone dictionary suggesting the wrong spellings, or otherwise causing more harm than good, the keyboard history can be cleared.

If you're getting odd spelling suggestions when you type on your iOS keyboard you can reset your dictionary to factory defaults and start all over. This is helpful to erase "learned" misspelled words, joke spellings, common typos and words you have typed in a foreign language. Unfortunately there is no way to edit single words in iOS. You instead have to reset everything or create your own word shortcut.
