Apple has made some improvements to the predictive text feature on the iPhone, which has contributed to a more intuitive typing experience, given the recurring misspellings, so it was very useful to know which words were automatically corrected and be able to change them again quickly. Although this feature is enabled automatically, it is best to verify its activation by following these steps:

◉ Open Settings, then tap General.
