A system and computer-implemented method are provided for enabling an audio interface enhanced autocorrect feature in a mobile device. The method includes detecting activation of an autocorrect feature of a mobile device in response to a portion of text not appearing in a system dictionary, enabling a microphone in response to activation of the autocorrect feature, receiving audio input from a user responsive to a word replacement by the autocorrect feature, and implementing an enhanced autocorrect action based on the audio input.
