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.
