Why is my voice to text and auto correct getting worse and worse

I used to be a die hard Samsung girl until I received my first IPhone 6s plus as a gift 2 years ago. I instantly fell in love with the phone. But gradually the auto correct and voice prediction has gotten to be more of a pain then it’s worth. It doesn’t know the difference between to, too and two. In fact even when I type it will auto correct to wrong form. I just started my own business and it’s essential that emails and texts come across professional and not like I didn’t pass elementary school grammar class. What is going on. How do I fix it. I am currently using an iphone 8plus. Is it because I have an older model. I had to get a second phone for work, I chose a google pixel. This doesn’t seem to be an issue with that phone and I’m pretty disappointed to say I’m already considering switching back to an android

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 13

Hello, kaycee144.


Welcome to Apple Support Communities.


From what I've read is that you're having troubles with the autocorrect feature on the iPhone. I know having this to work as expected is essential and I'd be glad to help. Check out this article: How to use Auto-Correction and predictive text on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


"As you type, you can see choices for words and phrases you'd probably type next, based on your past conversations, writing style, and even websites you visit in Safari".


Go to Settings > General > Keyboard > Reset Keyboard Dictionary.


I hope this helps.


Cheers!
