You can use the UITextChecker class : https://developer.apple.com/library/iOS/#documentation/UIKit/Reference/UITextChecker_Class/Reference/Reference.html

You can't. There is no public API to find out what suggestion is being offered.

Take a look at UITextInputTraits, it has a property autocorrectionType

typedef enum {
    UITextAutocorrectionTypeDefault,
    UITextAutocorrectionTypeNo,
    UITextAutocorrectionTypeYes,
} UITextAutocorrectionType;

so you can try yourTextfield.autocorrectionType = UITextAutocorrectionTypeYes;
