To turn off autocorrect on most devices, the general process involves going to the device's settings, then to keyboard settings, and toggling off the "Auto- Correction" option.

Turning Off Autocorrect on iPhone

  1. Open the Settings app on the iPhone.
  2. Tap General.
  3. Select Keyboard.
  4. Find the Auto-Correction option and toggle it off (the switch will turn from green to white) to disable autocorrect.

Turning Off Autocorrect on Android

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Tap System (or search for keyboard settings).
  3. Select Keyboard or On-screen keyboard.
  4. Choose the keyboard app in use (e.g., Gboard).
  5. Tap Text correction.
  6. Turn off the Auto-correction toggle.

This disables the autocorrect feature, preventing automatic spelling corrections during typing. The process is straightforward on both platforms and helps avoid unintended word changes while typing.
