Your phone may.

I miss the old texting. I don’t care about my spelling, I don’t need it to create words I am not sending

LOL works fine for me.

Just can’t figure out the Bob autocorrect conundrum.

I figured out where to delete it this morning.


This option lets you replace words that you type with others. If, for example, you want to replace “ducking” with a naughtier word, you can do that here:

Open Settings on your iPhone
Tap General
Tap Keyboard
Choose “Text Replacement”
Tap the + button in the top-right corner
Here, to be appropriate, we’ll create the phrase “be right there” and use the shortcut “brt.” This lets you type “brt” and automatically expand that into “be right there” when you’re sending a text message or e-mail.
