I don't believe this is accessible from code. I did a search in the iOS docs and did not find anything specific to the dictionary. However, you do have access to UITextChecker: link to docs

When you are clicking on a UITextField on an interface, the keyboard will automatically pop up. Once you get that string from the field, you can pass it into the guessesForWordRange function for a UITextChecker. Check out the link to see how it's used. After that, you will have two objects, the original and an array of guesses to pick from.
