What I found that worked until it’s fixed is turning off auto correction
As posted earlier, the apple fix
If you type the letter “i” and it autocorrects to an “A” with a symbol - Apple Support
My phone just started to have the same issue. I am sure that Apple will put out a fix to this but temporarily I suggest that you go to settings>general>keyboard>text replacement. Add "i" as a short cut for "i". This way you'll be to type normally.
settings>general>reset>reset keyboard settings.
I had the same problem and i updated to the latest update and it didnt work but i figure out that turning off your auto correct in your keyboard settings under general will fix the problem
New update 11.1.2 fixed it for me. Nothing else I tried would work.
Turn off auto correct. ;)
Not sure if it had anything to do with the recent update but I did notice that it started doing this to me after I increased my text size with the settings in accessibility
Please note that there is an update to fix this; I posted about it the other day.
I am having this same problem, started yesterday October 30th, 2017. I am using these keyboards:
- English (US)
- Spanish (México)
- Français (France)
- and Emoji.
The autocorrect for the ‘I ‘ happens in all languages. I have already tried resetting the keyboard dictionary and checking the text replacement shortcuts, as well as reinstalling apps and doing a soft reset but this seems to be an iOS issue not an app issue.
I have noticed everyone having this problem. I have not updated to IOS 11 yet and I am still on 10. I am not having this issue so it must have something to do with the new update. Apple always has major bugs for the first few months after releasing big updates, so hopefully this will be resolved soon.
What keyboard are you using? Have you tried to change the keyboard?
Are you guys all on iOS 11.1? Did the issue start after updating?
Same issue and posted it here--no solution from Apple yet, but others reporting similar problem. Re: Letter "I" appears as 'A ?'

Have you now fixed your problem by updating to 11.1.1?
Can’t type the letter I️ , showing up weird. A little box or the letter A and a question mark inside of a box.
