With the recent launch of the OnePlus 2, Chinese company OnePlus has managed to vanquish the ever-precarious sophomore attempt with this stunning mid-range phone. In case you’ve purchased the OP2 without knowing what you actually bought, just know that for that kind of money, you got the best value for your buck.
The rivals to this gem include the likes of high-end culprits iPhone 6, Samsung Galaxy 6 and HTC One M9, the top smartphones on the market right now. In short, the specs are tempting yet the price remains half that of its competition.
However, daily use is likely to be fraught with the usual challenges you’ll face with any other phone. This includes the turning off auto correct and it is for this reason we are here in the first place.
How to Disable Auto Correct
Follow these steps and you will be able to resolve auto correct issues on your OP2:
Launch Settings in the menu app.
Look for Language & input and open it.
You will find a sub-heading titled Keyboard & input methods which allows you to check the keyboard you’re using. Select the keyboard you are using.
To disable auto correct, turn off Auto-correction.
Today, we want to take you through the process of turning off the auto correction abilities of iOS. Just like the iPhone and iPad, your iPod too runs iOS and disabling auto correct on the latter basically follows similar steps.
For most users, doing away with it is not recommended, but the choice to disable auto correct on your iPod can be a reasonable solution for some unique situations where you find the typo prevention to be not just irritating but totally unnecessary as well. Don’t worry though, you can always revert things to the default setting swiftly should you need to.
Another thing, the autocorrect toggle is present in all modern iOS devices, including the iPod, so this should not be hard to find irrespective of how old or new your hardware is.
Here then is how you can disable auto correct on your iPod:
Open the Home screen and head over to Settings.
Clicking on Settings will yield multiple options. Tap on General.
Right about the middle of the General settings pane, find and select Keyboard.
This is where you will find the auto correction feature.
Two years is a lot for a smartphone, there is no denying that. That’s how long the Nexus 5 (the phone where Android Kit Kat made its debut) has been around. Regardless, if you can find one, then you have one of the best value smartphones money can get you. That’s before you can get its forthcoming sibling, the Nexus 5X that is due for launch on September 29, 2015.
When it comes to typing on the Nexus 5, the auto correct feature makes things easier for some, whether it’s a text message they are drafting, an email or online form they are completing. For others though, the feature seems to have a mind of its own, turning what was a coherent conversation into a meaningless jumble. Fortunately, however, you can disable auto correct by adjusting the settings on your prized Nexus.
To disable the feature, you will have to do this manually – as is with every other phone – given there is no dedicated app to turn it off. Here’s what you need to do:
Go to Settings.
Select Language & input.
Select ‘Default’ which you will find under Keyboard & input methods (the default on the Nexus is the Google keyboard).
Select Auto-correction on the pane that ensues and you will be able to turn it off here.
Auto correct can be a vexing feature, and no less so on the iPhone. When you disable auto correct, you will be in a position to type more freely without having to double-check if normal words have been transformed into something you wouldn’t want finding their way into your mother’s or boss’s inbox.
The good thing with turning off auto correct is that whatever words you type – whether correct or not – will remain so.
So, how do you disable auto correct in your iPhone? Let’s walk you through!
Launch Settings on your iPhone.
Head over to General and hit Keyboard.
Somewhere among the options you should be able to find Auto-correction. Slide the switch to the OFF position.
Opt out of Settings like you normally do and you should kiss your problem goodbye.
Easy, right?
Disabling auto correct on your iPhone gives you the option to leave spell checking on – or turn it off – so that’s your call. Disabling it also leaves the convenient Quick Type keyboard intact which is welcome news for those who loathe auto correct but would want to be notified of typos (or have the option to type faster available).
