2 questions regarding autocorrection:

1) I've noticed that autocorrect DOESN'T WORK most of the time on my iPhone 6+.

This happened before I upgraded to iOS 8.0.2. My iPad Air is fine (which also runs 8.0.2). Anyone else have an issue with this?

I constantly have to backspace/delete, and retype the correct word myself whenever I mis-type. Very frustrating, and interruptive when composing emails (even when texting!)

Anyone else have the same problem?

2)
Is there a way to DELETE some of these words from autocorrect memory? In general, for misspelled words that have been stored in memory and that keep popping up as a CORRECTED word while typing?

I noticed that my Plus has memorized A LOT of my mistyped words, and will auto-correct to the WRONG spelling of a word!
