Has anyone found a fix for this? I am using iPhone 13, fully updated 15.3.1 and have replaced keystrokes hood with good- but nothing works. I even self-corrected 50 times on the word choice above the keypad. still nothing!
Was this some maniacal word demon who works for Apple and decided to play a prank on all iPhone users, just because he could?!
lots of people are still complaining about this. Has no one found a fix?
thx.
Restart fixed it. Sorry to post this before restarting!
thanks for the help.
Hello rswc90,
Thanks for reaching out to us in Apple Support Communities about auto correct replacing words incorrectly. We're happy to help by looking into this more!
The following support article provides some troubleshooting steps to try for this behavior:
How to use Auto-Correction and predictive text on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Specifically, check out the section labeled "Set up text replacement" to make sure you have not inadvertently set this replacement.
Hope this helps.
Best Regards.
This is a good link! Good for me, anyway! I am using good in as many ways as I can to test it out! And good riddance to hood!!
THANK YOU! Good bye! (It seems to have worked!)
Thanks for this. I don’t want to turn off predictive and autocorrect because of something that Apple SHOULD correct. It’s one word!!! I shouldn’t have to change everything I do to accommodate one issue in their programming or coding.
I have already done all the corrective measures suggested.
thanks.
rswc90,
The suggestions was not for you disable the feature, it was so you could check and make sure a specific text replacement has not been set up for these 2 specific words. If you go to the section as explained in the previous post, you will see all the text replacements you have set up.
Hope this helps.
Best Regards.
After second reboot in the passage of 24 hours, Hood is back replacing good. Emojis do not pop up unless I have used several of them previously by clicking on the emoji keyboard. Predictive words are still enabled but it’s back to its old mischief.
This was a temporary fix. There are so many comments and nobody from Apple has come up with a solution.
I have tried the temporary fix again and it only worked the first time. After that, Hood seems to be the option that auto correct uses and that predictive words select. This Hass to be a stupid joke that somebody intentionally planted. But April fools, April 1, hasn’t come around this year yet!
Looking forward to some real solution that will last! Thank you all for the comments.
this is what I had set up. Should it be different?
rswc90,
Looks like you don't have a text replacement set up for good and hood, in this case your next best step would be to reach out Apple Support:
Best Regards.
Text replacement doesn't work... this will fix the problem...
Now, none of my emoji replacements work. For example I type LOL and no laugh emoji even pops up as an option. My emoji keyboard is on. Any thoughts?
Autocorrect continues to replace “good” with “hood”
