When I type i get the standard spell check, mind of it's own shi*t we all face, but when I get near the bottom of the frame it all goes to double strike blurry mess and I have to preview every sentence to see what I wrote. Do any of you geeks out there know how to fix this. Im using my phone, don't have a computer.

I look uneducated because I usually hit send and then it all pops up silly. The edit on this site helps.

As your typing…. Each word appears on left just above keyboard and allows you to touch it if want words spelled custom or properly. I have apple. If you tap the words or abbreviations etc it will allow them to remain. If not spell check will modify them constantly

What kind of phone? When was the last time you updated the operating system on it? The easiest thing you can try is to power it off and leave it off for 10 minutes or so, then turn it back on. See if that helps. Make sure your screen is clean.

I would first take it in to your service provider, have them take a look at it. Some of those folks are pretty savvy. If you are gonna get a new one, strongly consider an iPhone. I used an Android (that's what LG is) for years, but I got a really good deal on a iPhone a couple years ago, and I've been really happy with it. But hey, they're all good. Strictly personal preference.

I bought a refurbished phone from a reseller on Ebay and hooked it up successfully on Pure Talk, which has no brick and mortar locations. T-Mobile staff was very helpful With a problem even though I didn't have any association with them. Drop by any location that has phones (when they're not busy) and see if they will help. Avoid Verizon, though.

They're all just as bad as the next one. I've tried em all. None seem to work real well. Advanced technology ya know. My old bag phone from Motorola worked perfectly ever time. Can't get those anymore.

Marion did you upgrade to 5g. We had sprint but TMobile bought them n dropped 3g. The auto spell on my Samsung try to predict a couple words vat a time. I get tired of having to check every word. Other phone is Nord n I use it 90% of the time. Easier for me than my laptop. Good luck πŸ‘πŸ‘ I do hit reset every couple days n once a week I tur it off while charging
