iOS8 - How To Turn Off Predictive Text

gemz4the1 — Thu, 18 Sep 2014 06:23:56 GMT

I updated my iPhone to iOS 8 last night and the first thing that I hated was the annoying predictive text. I Googled it and found a way to turn it off.

If you open the message and click on the globe at the bottom of the keyboard, there is the option to turn the predictive text off.

Hi Gemma

I quite like it and reminds me of how android shows the word.

Have you looked at the 3rd party keyboards.

I added a link with some of the ones available in the App Store.

I hope you tweak it to you're liking.

That was the first thing I turned off too. You can also do it in settings - keyboard.

Not really @jonsie ...only spelling errors.

I personally have never got on with predictive text on my S3...However my HP Slate tablet I find it great...I think this is totally to do with screen size... (i know that sounds daft but it is how I feel)...:smileywink:

I'm sure when it learns a bit more it will be better but quicker to type stuff really, not bad for longer words but you have to type the majority of the word before it realises what you want

That's why I don't use it

It's just like automated calls, then never understand the accent

It confuses me because I don't particularily sound too scouse. I don't exaggerate the end of my words. I'm a bit of a posh scouse tbh. Some people question if I am actually from Liverpool. A bit strange....
