Autocorrect

On all my Apple devices, (MacBook Air 2012, IPad Air, iPod Touch 5th gen and iPhone 6), the autocorrect is out of control. How do I fix that? It's not just spelling, it changes entire words and messes up the meaning of entire sentences, why? It's annoying. What do I do?

You should probably clear your dictionary on one of those devices since I'm sure they're probably syncing the dictionary.

For the life of me, I can't remember how to clear the customer dictionary on the phone so hopefully someone will chime in on how to go about that.

I got tired of the mess too. So I use SwiftKey. It's much better. :)

Swift key lover too :)

You get the Holiday keyboard? I love it! And I like how I can type 2 characters of my email address, and the entire email address shows in the center predictive box. That's better than shortcuts.

I like SwiftKey, but, I've had too many weird random issues over the past two weeks. I ended up removing it (for now).

Woohoo thank you so much! I just did it on my iPad, if it works I'll reset it on my phone too.
