The iPhone 5 running iOS 7 uses various auto-complete features to make entering text simpler. Autofill functions fill in forms quickly and store credit card information for use with Safari. Autocorrect functions work in text-based apps like Mail, Messages and Notes. Disabling these features provides you with a streamlined experience without the interruptions that occur when you dismiss autocorrect bubbles or delete text automatically filled in to forms.
