If you have several languages configured, there's a globe icon that lets you switch between keyboards. It's still a step down from Android that seems to just detect the language even if you switch mid-sentence.

- oriolid 4y agoLooks pretty half-assed implementation to me. If they have autocorrect for Finnish, it shouldn't be too difficult to do quick lookups for both Finnish and English. And everyone knows that it's Autocorrect's carefully designed brand image to screw up, switching languages would allow more creative mistakes.
