Apple sued over spellcheck functions on Mac, iPhone & iPad

Make a list of the words you routinely misspell. For me, one of them was “obsolescence.” Once you see the correct spelling, strike through the word on your list and put in the correct spelling. Practice writing it a few times — for me, the key was remembering that the middle part was SOLE like the bottom of a shoe (or the fish). This will train your brain towards the correct spelling.
Hope that helps!I don't deny that is good advice but it doesn't help with typos.I am also a good speller but not such a good copy editor of typos. Fortunately, spell checkers excel at typo checking as it is more about probabilities based on keyboard position and word patterns rather than guessing how a human mind might guess at the spelling of an unfamiliar word. -

iPhone replacement cycles slowing down to four years, pose threat to services, analyst say...
