Disable Autocorrect for External BlueTooth Keyboard – iOS 9.2

someotherone,

Good question here. I took a little time into creating your situation. Can I get a little more info on what type of external keyboard hardware you are using?

- Model #

- Brand

- Did you have this working before?

Thanks,

I'm also experiencing this on an iPad Pro with the Logitech Create keyboard since updating to iOS 9.2. It's driving me crazy, dropping keystrokes and autocorrecting things that don't need to be autocorrected. I hope a fix for this "feature" comes soon.

So are you guys having problems with letters getting stuck as uppercase? I posted about it here (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7380268), but I think this is also been something that popped up in 9.2.

Yeah, the autocapitalization is part of my issue as well. However, unlike you if I turn off all the "auto" settings, it actually behaves sensibly. I guess I'll keep these settings for now, even though I'd prefer to have them on for the software keyboard.

For what it's worth, pressing and releasing the shift key before typing the first character of a sentence causes that character to be lowercase for me.

What device are you using? And I'm thinking my thing is more and more to do with software, because I'm replying from my iPad Pro, and in the reply box, the problem doesn't happen, but in all my native apps, it is still a problem.

I'm on an iPad Pro also.

I also have this issue and find it very frustrating. It used to be the behavior of a bluetooth and the onscreen keyboard was different. On screen had auto correct functionality. The bluetooth keyboard didn't have these features enabled.

This makes my iPad very hard to use to author content, especially technical content where I'm using a lot of code/symbols. Yet I *need* these very auto correction features for the on screen keyboard, when I'm more likely casually browsing.

It's also very silly to paste URLs in places and have http -> Http.

Surprising lack of attention to detail from Apple

I am having the same issue, and it is very frustrating! I don't want my iPhone to automatically correct what I am typing on my bluetooth keyboard! There is a reason I am not capitalizing certain letters or adding punctuation. I have only noticed this happening as of iOS 9.2. Please fix this!

Same problem. iPad Air, iOS 9.2, Logitech Bluetooth keyboard.

Same problem here and it absolutely drives me nuts! I am a fantastic typist and don't need the **** auto correct, and it keeps correcting things that are 100% accurate. iPhone 6S with an Apple 2013 Bluetooth keyboard. I can't believe Apple let this fall through the cracks. I use Korea IOS, and switch often between English and Korean on the keyboard, and they changed the **** keystroke with ios 9 for changing languages, which was annoying enough, but this auto correct feature is making me look like an incompetent fool in both languages. Help! Please!

Same for me. I guess for now I'll just switch the auto-stuff off in settings when I use type2phone 😟

To disable the auto-capitalization and auto-correction when using external keyboard,

go to settings => general => keyboard => hardware keyboard and disable those 2 options.
