I’ve been trying to update my iPhone to the latest version for what seems like ages, partly because my husband kept talking about how cool the new QuickType iOS Predictive Text feature is. But the thing that’s been tripping me up is I’ve been trying to do it through the phone’s settings… and it kept telling me I needed to clear 4.5 gigabytes of space off my phone before the update could happen.

Josh was able to get the latest iOS on his phone no problem. He kept helpfully telling me I needed to delete some apps, pictures, and music from my phone.

But guys. I use all of those apps. You never know when I’m gonna need to Shazam something! And I take a bajillion pictures. I don’t store a lot of music on my phone, but I did download the full Macklemore album on there. Because that time you’re driving in the car and you need to jam to Can’t Hold Us, and downloading or streaming the song isn’t working… Is the worst thing ever.

Then, last week I caught wise and thought about hooking my iPhone up to my desktop computer and updating it through iTunes. Worked like a charm. I kicked myself for having deleted my precious Deal With It app.

And my adventures in predictive text immediately plummeted into ridiculousness.

Don’t be scared, guys, my head doesn’t hurt all that bad and I promise I still remember how to plink a couple of super basic things on the ol’ ivories. Really important songs, like the Sesame Street theme song.

I think it’s important to go to the gym with your life, because otherwise you’ll be all dead all over the weight machines and people are just gonna be waiting around on you getting all impatient.

I’m going to be the best thing about being able to see you in my room. Because apparently my iPhone predictive text thinks I’m way conceited.

Oh it works all right. For comedy.

This isn’t true. The only way to get my nails done tomorrow is hire a sitter. This iPhone predictive text is almost as inaccurate as your standard Siri fare.

That’s my favorite thing ever. Because it’s the best thing ever.

Have you tried out the iOS predictive text feature yet?
