Turn off auto-correct that shows up on the screen
To turn off those "options" that show up (and usually automatically replace for you) along the bottom of the screen while you are typing:
- touch the tiny picture of a keyboard in the bottom right corner of the screen (to the left of the clock)
- touch "English (US) Android keyboard" (it should be the top option)
to turn it back on, just reverse this process
