So my iOS keyboard keeps suggesting 2 email addresses that I don't use any more... One is from my previous employer and another is a personal email that I dont use any more. Is there a trick to reset this feature or edit the email addresses it suggests? Or am SOL unless I do a clean restore?

Try resetting keyboard dictionary under General in Settings. That may do the trick.

Oh wow I've been in that menu so many times to "erase content and settings" and to "erase network settings" and never even noticed that "reset keyboard dictionary" option lol. I'll give that a shot thanks!

I also have this problem, but resetting keyboard dictionary didn't fix the problem for me. Does anyone have a different suggestion?

Guess here, maybe picking it up from previous addresses in Mail.

Go into Mail, start a new email. Start typing in the To field the offending address. When you see it in the list of possible addresses, tap Info and then Remove.
