Typing is much easier if our keyboard already knows what we want to write before we do it. This is taken care of by the Predictive Text feature, which facilitates faster typing on our iPhones<\/strong>. A function that, although it is simple and intuitive to use -no more than AirDrop<\/a>-, hides a couple of options that are interesting to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What is the Predictive Text function<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Predictive Text is a feature on our iPhone and iPad that predicts the next word we want to type, based on context and our previous typing patterns<\/strong>. Thanks to this feature we can save time when typing text, since in many circumstances we can simply tap one of the suggested words instead of having to type it, or at least type it completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to activate the Predictive Text function<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While the Predictive Text feature is usually enabled by default<\/strong> on iPhones, it’s good to check. If we don’t see the word suggestions as we type, we most likely need to turn the feature on manually. The steps to do so are as simple as these:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. We open the Settings<\/em> app on our iPhone or iPad.<\/li>
  2. Go to General<\/em>.<\/li>
  3. Tap on Keyboard<\/em>.<\/li>
  4. Activate Predictive<\/em>.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    If after activating the function, or having found it activated, we still do not see the word suggestions when typing, the most likely reason is that the language of our keyboard is not<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How to use “Predictive text<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Once we have activated the predictive keyboard, we will see that word suggestions will automatically appear above the keyboard as we type. This is how we will use them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Let’s start typing any text.<\/li>
    2. As we type, let’s pay attention to the word suggestions that appear<\/strong> above the keyboard. The suggestions will change as you type, adapting to the context of the sentence letter by letter.<\/li>
    3. To accept one of the three suggested words, simply tap the word in the suggestion bar. The word will automatically be inserted into our message, and the keyboard will adjust to offer new suggestions based on the selected word.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
