Keyboard shortcut problems in iPhone 5S with iOS 8 update

I installed iOS 8.3 on my iPhone 6, and YIPPY! My shortcuts are accessible and working again! FINALLY.. My iPad 2 is still using the previous iOS because of speed concerns, but it had the same problem at the same time it started on my iPhone 6.. So, I haven't tried the shortcuts on that one yet.. I'm hoping whatever the iPhone 6 was doing, that it was affecting the iPad 2 with old iOS.. I'll check that later today.. I haven't tried Yosemite yet. I'm still on Mavericks.. Maybe I'll switch that soon.

"Reset All Settings"

Some time ago the shortcuts I used so much started to not work. After trying everything with some success, I found a verifiable fix which works every time I've tried it. If the shortcuts stop working, simply go to settings, keyboards then shortcuts. Highlight the top of the list shortcut of your saved shortcuts. Click save, shortcuts are restored every time on my iPad Air 2, 128 gig, wi-fi. I have never tried anything other than the top one on the list. Hope this helps anyome who has lost that feature and wants to easily restore it.

Turning off and on the predictive keyboard solved the problem with the shortcuts but predicted keyboard is now a bit bugged.
