iPhone 7 and 8 plus, running 11.0.3, Whenever
the keyboard opens up the first recommended word for predictive text is "A
[?]" as shown below in the picture. This is very annoying as When user
type the letter "I" it autocorrects to A [?]. It shows up in all
apps. This is becoming a common issue where many iphone users started
experiencing a bug when typing in the letter "i". The suggestion for
"i" changes the letter to "A [?]" or "! [?]".
User have updated to iOS 11.1 but it didn’t fix anything. Even this issue is
seen in the iphone X as well where iPhone is typing wrong words.
If you restore and don't sign in to iCloud,
the issue goes away, but that's obviously unsustainable. It seems to be tied to
your iCloud account, because i see those weird characters on my iMac, although
i cannot actually type in that character from the iMac. So it seems like it's a
server side/iCloud issue.

To fix the issue please try below possible fix/workaround.
Fix 1:
A workaround is to just turn off predictive text/ Auto correct
One easy way to get rid of this iphone weired
wrong character replacement to just turn off predictive text. Or you can try to
turn off Autocorrect in dictionary settings. After this you may also user third
party keyboard, Gboard on iPhone and iPad.
Fix 2:
Language Settings
There is a easy solution than this. The
problem is in the loading of the language in iOS. Go to Settings > General
> Language & Region > iPhone Language.
Change the language from English to any other
option. After it changes, immediately change it back. The language loads again
and the glitch is resolved. Hope this helps.
Fix 3:
Try text replacement as workaround
This is a work around to swap every
occurrence of that weird symbolizing error and replace it with the correct
unicode for I.
Settings > General > Keyboard > Text
Replacement
Shortcut: copy and paste the weird
symbolizing (A ? with box around it).
Phrase: Type an i or I.
This is a work around to swap every
occurrence of that weird symbolizing error and replace it with the correct
Unicode for I. This is strange that it is happening with no one updating even.
Hopefully apple can push a solution shortly.
