iPhone AutoCorrection - Gone Wrong

[Dan]

I have an iPhone and noticed that it changed actual real words, to other words, even when you originally spelt the word you wanted to use correct, it'll still change the odd word for you to something it thinks you were meant to type. Over time, it learns what you type a lot of, and will give preference to those words over others.

Here's some iPhone AutoCorrection text messages gone wrong.....

So, can this predictable type text be turned off.

 

[DHTiling]

Oh.. answer above.

 

[Dan]

It can be good providing you always check the texts (and emails) first. But when you don't.... oh my... christ knows what the phone thinks I do/am/are? lol

Some right classics in there.

"What you doing?"
"Just defecating outside the house"
"Why, is your toilet broke?"
"Sorry, DECORATING, the christmas tree"

there are some crackers on there. The normal style mobile with predictitive text used to make come up with come good ones too.
If i text a mate to come out for a beer with me and Anna it would type ' fancy a adds with me and bomb' Now given the powers that be are supposed to monitor words like BOMB on mobile phone texts, anyone who hasnt set their phone up to put anna and not bomb must be closely watched!

 

[Dan]

I just put "costless" and it changed it to "Clarissa"? lmfao.

I have never typed clarissa before just. Why does it think she's more important than saving money?! lol

 

[hillhead]
