Hey BEC.bec,


I'd be glad to assist you with the issue you mentioned about your iPhone's keyboard not working quite as expected.


Does this behavior occur with every word involving an n, or is it more associated with specific words? This could be important as there is a chance that added dictionary items might be at play. Also, do you use Slide to Type, or do you enter each letter manually via taps?


Have you checked for any potential text replacements? If you're not sure, look over the "Set up text replacement" section of How to use Auto-Correction and predictive text on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. While there, it might not be a bad idea to review the entire page, as it has great options that could be potential issues.


If you haven't updated your iPhone lately, it might be worth checking for one. You can do that by going to Settings > General > Software Update. Backing up prior to updating is always recommended.

Give that a try after updating if one is available, and let me know what you find out.


Have a great day.
