How can I turn off iPad autocorrect?
Sometimes you just don't need Apple's iPad dictionary telling you how to spell. The feature can be helpful but sometimes it's not the best at recognizing certain words and proper names, etc.
To turn auto correct off:
1. Navigate to Settings -> General -> Keyboard
2. Touch Auto-Correction -> OFF

Absolutely no thought into this fundamental feature of a computer - typing. How apple fails on this i dont know. I have turned off auto correct. Cant they come up witha middle ground for autocorrect? Easier way to ignore the suggestions? How about swiping like droid??? Teaching a dictionary? ...... Apple i hope youre listening!!!
Auto correcting my login constantly - adding ' or splitting 1 word into 2 words. It took me a day of 'no such login exists' before I realised what was happening on every site I tried to log in to. I've finally switched off auto correct in setting, but I want it in most cases - just not in logins.
This is completely ridiculous.
Why does the iPad think "i's" is a preferable word to "is" -- "u's" better than "us", etc. These stupid 2-letter abbreviations seem to have taken over -- I am constantly correcting them, but words like "is" and "as" are so common, it's easy to forget you've just used one of them. If you're going to have such pointless replacements, at least allow us to turn off those particular corrections. I can do it in Word -- why can't we do it here?
If only there was a way of swtiching off auto-correct without losing the spell checker...
The auto-correct is so annoying and erroneous, I'll take the risk of relying on my spelling and proofing skills. Thank you for this repair to an incredibly annoying issue. Maybe iPad2 will allow one to turn off auto-correct, but not spell check.
IPad2 has the same silly limitation. I'd like to enable spell check but not allow auto replace. Why is this so hard???
I've gotta say...For all the praise heaped on Apple, since getting my Ipad2 (first Apple product), I'm kind of surprised how glaring some of their errors are. This is a perfect example. You can't turn off auto correction without it turning off check spelling. It doesn't make sense any way you look at it. To make it worse, it's survived a major software update. Simply mind boggling.
This issue is so annoying, I can't even type my own name or email without it getting changed, or waiting for the auto-correct bubble to pop up so that I can cancel the move before spacing!!
I'm Gabe del Rio, not ga edd rio!!! And what the heck is "ga edd rio" anyway??!!!!
Concur. The ipad is my first encounter with the Cult of Apple having been a pc guy heretofore and i'm shocked at how goofy some of the software ideosyncrricies (didnt spell that correctly b/c i had to disable the spell checker to keep auto correct from changing my initials at the end of every email) are. What a hype machine. Also, what's up w/ no flash player?
I gair-own-tee you that Apple has fixes for all this, and that they existed even before the original product was introduced. It's a great way to get the Apple lemmings to buy each successive generation of the product until they get something close to what they really want. I predict word-processing facility will come to the iPad in its 2015-year model.
