Auto correct

Hi, I recently updated my iPhone 12 to iOS16.

I can’t help but notice that every time I’m texting while using the ENG keyboard, my phone autocorrects to Vietnamese.

I’ve tried switching some settings off but it’ll only happen when I have auto correct on. I don’t want to turn my auto correct off because I rely on that when I’m texting in English. Pls help :((

iPhone 12, iOS 16

Hi Peachyjj,


We'd like to help provide some guidance to assist you with your authentication-correct. If this was a previous language used and based on the keyboard dictionary saving these details, you can reset your personal dictionary. The steps in Save keystrokes with text replacements on iPhone - Apple Support would lead you to "Reset your personal dictionary" with the steps:


  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.


We hope this helps you reach a solution. Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
