Why are there blue lines under my text?


I’ve looked into this, and in most cases, they are talking abut when they’re dictating words. I’m not dictating. I’m sliding-to-type, but when I’m writing messages to people or writing in the notes app, sometimes every word in a sentence is underlined blue even though there’s nothing wrong with it. It will suggest correcting “to” as “too” or “top” or “Too.” It does the same with “of”. Or it’ll suggest a random capital word in the middle of a sentence or words that I never use like “stork” or “AB’s”. I don’t get it. I’ve turned on and off most of the settings under keyboard but it doesn’t change anything. I’m getting really annoyed at this so please fix this or tell me how to fix it.

iPhone 7, iOS 15

Hello selynyx,


Thank you for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. To help troubleshoot predictive text for the keyboard of your iPhone, we recommend to reset the keyboard dictionary. This is a step that will return the keyboard to its default state and can help resolve this behavior. Here's how to perform this step:


Reset your personal dictionary
1. Go to Settings  > General > Reset.
2. Tap Reset Keyboard Dictionary.

All custom words and shortcuts are deleted, and the keyboard dictionary returns to its default state.

These steps are outlined in this helpful article: Save keystrokes with text replacements on iPhone


We look forward to hearing back from you with an update.


Kind regards.
