If you searched how to turn on autocorrect in WhatsApp on iPhone, the switch is in the phone, not in the chat. Open Settings → General → Keyboard and turn on Autocorrection.
That row corrects words as you type in WhatsApp only if the iPhone keyboard is the one on screen. If you installed Gboard or another keyboard, the iPhone switch does not control it. Look in that keyboard’s own settings. We cannot open Settings from here.
We are not WhatsApp Support. A profile or an app that promises “spell check inside WhatsApp on iPhone” is not WhatsApp.
iPhone still won’t correct the word?
The switch is Settings → General → Keyboard, not a WhatsApp menu. Paste a draft into Shmooz if you want the sentence rewritten. We cannot open Settings.
This is not the other keyboard pages
- iPhone autocorrect — stay here.
- The suggestion bar — Predictive, on the same Keyboard screen, is a different switch. It stays predictive text on WhatsApp. That title stays. Turning it off is turn off predictive text.
- Android, not iPhone — usually Gboard. See autocorrect in WhatsApp on Android.
- Samsung — Samsung Keyboard. See autocorrect in WhatsApp on Samsung.
- Spell check, without the word iPhone — WhatsApp spell checker. We are not retitling it.
- WhatsApp Web — the browser on the computer. See spell check on WhatsApp Web.
- A whole sentence — WhatsApp grammar check.
If the word is right and the sentence is wrong
Autocorrection fixes letters. It does not rewrite a message. Paste the draft into a separate chat if you want a cleaner line. Shmooz is an AI assistant inside WhatsApp. You send the message yourself.

FAQ
Can you turn on iPhone autocorrect for me?
No. The control is in Settings on that iPhone.
I turned Autocorrection on and WhatsApp still does not fix words.
Check which keyboard is selected. A third-party keyboard ignores the iPhone Autocorrection switch. There is no second switch inside WhatsApp.
Are you WhatsApp?
No. We do not publish a support number.
