iOS 10 - Emoji's not appearing in predictive text

This feature works for me - you have to press the space bar after you type "my number is"

Yes there is the problem but as M3dik told probably it will observe the behavior and then slowly it will start suggesting.

I have now fixed the emoji predicitive issue:

The fix is to basically switch to the emoji keyboard and send loads of emoji's to yourself in a few messages. Then it starts working!!!

Nope richard for me still not working. Till how long you are using the iOS 10? I am just trying to understand if you are using for long time then probably there is a chance that the keyboard learnt the suggestion. I have installed the iOS just yesterday.

Let me try !!!

Yes now fixed for me too..Trying to solve the number and calendar part now.

Thanks! That solution worked perfectly!

Still no luck with the other parts like suggesting contact number,email,calendar time, location etc. They are not working. If anyone find any trick like this, please post here.

Solved all the issues.

1. To make the mobile or email suggestion work :-

Type "John's mobile is " --- It should suggest the number

Type "John's email is " --- It should suggest the email

Type "My address is " --- It should suggest the address provided you have address saved under your contact details

Type "John's birthday is " --- It should suggest the date in format "Month day" provided you have saved his birthday under contact details

2. For location suggestion :-

Type "I am currently at " --- It should suggest you to share the location and you have to allow for sharing location from settings

3. For calendar suggestion :-

Take and example that you have some meeting scheduled on your calendar tomorrow. Then type on message like "Tomorrow I am free at " --- It will show the free timing as an suggestive option. if you do not have anything scheduled on your calendar then the option wont come, may be application thinks that you are free for whole day 🙂.

Hope this helps.

I also have the same problem.

Worked immediately on my iPhone after installing iOS 10 and has never worked on my iPad Pro so it has absolutely nothing to do with learning.

On my iPhone when I'm in messages as soon as I type the word "car" a little car automatically appears as a suggestion however on my iPad I have to press the emoji keyboard to get that to happen.

I have done all the various reset suggested on the Internet and nothing fixes it.

I posted the fix for this further up it would help for you to read the post fully...

"The fix is to basically switch to the emoji keyboard and send loads of emoji's to yourself in a few messages. Then it starts working!!! "

wow - you are indeed right. Thank you.

Been reading too many iPhone 7 forums lately - must have missed your fix

That solution worked for me, but it seems you have to use this method in each application to bring up these "predictive emoji" - e.g. if you send yourself an iMessage with loads of emoji, it turns on the feature, but will not also do so in Whatsapp - you have to also send yourself (or anyone, I assume) several emoji in Whatsapp and the predictive emoji then also works in Whatsapp.✅🙂

Good evening everyone. I had the same problem on one of my 2 iPhone 6, updated to IOS 10.0.1

In few words one was not having predictive emoji, while the other yes.

I tried everything I could find over the internet (enabling and disabling predictions, removing keyboards, etc), NO WAY!

I was ready to give up when I discovered a difference in the two iPhones:

the one where the emoji where not working didn't have any dictionary enabled

the one where the emoji where working have Apple and Oxford dictionary enabled

As I enabled the dictionary in the second phone I immediately got the predictive emoji.

I hope it will work for you as well

Best regards

You've probably got this solved already but what worked for me is switching language to English (US) in settings. It started working to predict phone numbers and email addresses. I switched back to my native language and it still works so far. Still not working for calendar though.
