Q: iOS problems on iPhone 6

Since adding iOS 10 to my iPhone 6, when I try to type I'm constantly interrupted to ask if I want to "Undo Typing?"  Why?  How can I make it stop?

Hi, debviolin!


Thank you for reaching out via the Apple Support Communities. After reading your post, I understand that you are repeatedly getting a prompt asking you to "Undo Typing" when using the keyboard in iOS 10. I frequently use my keyboard on my own iPhone, as I send and receive iMessages and e-mails all day, so I know it is important not to get interrupted. I'd be happy to help!


I would recommend a couple of things to stop that prompt from appearing. 

First, check to see if the "Shake to undo" feature is enabled under Settings > General > Accessibility. If it is, toggle it off and test how your typing goes.

If you still get prompted with "Undo Typing" with the "Shake to undo" feature off, restart your iPhone following the steps here: Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Cheers!

    Im pretty sure one of these should take care of this issue

     

    1) try powering it off and then powering it back on.

    2) with a soft cloth clean the surface of your glass/film and try it again

    This was the answer, thanks.  The shake feature seems to be the default on installation in iOS 10.

     

    While I have your ear:  my other issue is that none of my apps go to landscape when I turn the phone sideways.  The Maps and Waze turn the maps upside down.  I've rebooted, reinstalled, reset everything but this hasn't fixed it.  Any ideas?
