The program then stores your words in the inaccessible, noneditable Keyboard Dictionary. Earlier iOS versions learned more slowly, requiring you to issue vetoes on several occasions, but iOS 6 often learns from a single incident. When you override an autocorrect suggestion, iOS learns your preferred word. Fortunately, you can overrule an autocorrect suggestion from the keyboard: Tap the Delete key, retype the last letter, and the suggestion disappears.Ĭome back! Shortcuts are designed to expand easy-to-type strings of text into fuller phrases, but you can also use them to nullify mistaken entries in autocorrect’s Keyboard Dictionary. That’s not much help on an iPad when the bubble happens to be far from the keyboard.
