Autocorrect Is Your Friend
In this section, we describe two related tips about autocorrection that can also help you type faster and more accurately.
Auto apostrophes are good for you
First, before moving on from the subject of punctuation, you should know that you can type dont to get to don’t. We told you to put some faith in the iPhone’s autocorrection software. And that applies to contractions. In other words, save time by letting the iPhone’s intelligent keyboard insert the apostrophes on your behalf for these and other common words.
Make rejection work for you
If the autocorrect suggestion isn’t the word you want, reject it instead of ignoring it. Finish typing the word and then tap the x to reject the suggestion before you type another word. Doing so makes your iPhone more likely to accept your word the next time you type it (or less likely to make the same incorrect suggestion the next time you type the word).
