Hi Sandy and all, Please review my reference below for information on how to use the iOS autocorrect feature, but for now...
Here's how to use spell-check while you type: 1. Open Notes--almost typed Notepad. <Smile>. 2. When creating a new Note, while in the Note edit field type the following exactly as written then press the spacebar: brid 3. . After having pressed the spacebar in the step above, you will hear "misspelled." 4. Now press the Delete button and you should hear a multiple bubble-pop sound. A list of spelling corrections will appear. 4. Single finger swipe to the left to review the list of possible corrections. 5. When you find the word "bird" simply double-tap on the word to replace the misspelled word. 6. Now enter a space and begin typing your next word. This procedure will of course become easier with practice. <Smile>. For more details please review the following source of my summarized tutorial: http://www.applevis.com/guides/ios/very-comprehensive-guide-spell-check-and-auto-correct-i-o-s Joseph ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joseph FreeTech" <joseph.freet...@gmail.com> To: <viphone@googlegroups.com> Sent: Thursday, May 29, 2014 3:54 AM Subject: Re: Using Auto-Correction? Hi Sandy, I too am unable to access autocorrects list of alternative spellings. I'm using the default iOS keyboard on my iPod Touch 5th gen within the Notes app. If it matters, I'm using the following words to test autocorrect: dgo, cta, birthday, hav.

Hi David, Sorry, still can't find them. I am using the Apple BT keyboard. Do you have simple, step by step, instructions for me. I never used this before, but am researching it for a friend who finds a bug when using this feature, particularly, when writing emails. I do have it turned on in settings, plus I have "speak auto correction" turned on under "accessibility", but only hear "misspelt" and that is all. Thanks, Sandy.
