Every time I type "well" and hit space my phone auto corrects it to "we'll"

Help please

On a Z I typed "well" and swiped up from the space to save the word. Try the equivalent of that on your Q.

Edit: not sure why I assumed you have a Q...

Posted in the Q10 forum haha.

Thanks for the tip. On a Z10 this is easier, but on my Q10 it slows me down to tap the screen to get the correct word. Wish there was a way to just delete that auto-correct word.

I'd understand if "well" weren't a word, but it is haha.

I was having that problem as well. Before pressing the space bar, swipe up to insert "well". After a few times your Z10 will learn that you want to write "well" and not "we'll". After it's learned it when you type well it will give you the option to swipe up "we'll " as well. See screen shot attached. Other than that I don't have another solution.

Mine used to autocorrect it, but if you backspace, it puts it back to how you had it. After doing it three times, it stopped autocorrecting the word on my Q10.

IE
I wanted to type "Well, are you going to answer me?"
It could change it to "we'll" as I was typing.
So well became we'll. I backspaced and it fixed itself back to well.
I restarted the message two more times and did the same thing.
It doesn't autocorrect the word anymore for me.

Same here. Just as "hell" and "he'll".

Settings/language and input/prediction and correction/word substitution


Find the offending listing, delete it.

With a Q, I just turned off the word substitution. It isn't like we're tapping on glass and having the wrong letters show up... when we hit the wrong key by mistake, we just backspace and continue without a second thought.

Even having the enter key used as "send" isn't a problem for me (it sure was on the Z10).

This exactly. Surprised it took so many responses to get the right one.

Don't type it all the way, stop at wel, then use the predictive Window and touch the one that you want. Once u start using the predictive word window you'll be typing a lot faster.

Seems to only give me a list of the custom ones I've made. For example if I want "We'll" I have it set too change when I type "wel" and then space.

Thanks though. I'll try the backspace method the people posted above.

You should find "well ---> we'll" as one of the pre-configured word substitutions, just delete it and you're all set.

Doesn't show up unfortunately. However I did have "learn words" off which I have now switched to on, so hopefully that may help a little.

Thanks!
