Keyboard suggestions in iOS

Hi everybody,

I’m new here so apologies if this is a stupid question. I have the feeling it might be…

When I’m writing text in a draft using the iOS app I’m not seeing the standard word suggestions that appear above the on-screen keyboard, like they are now as I’m writing this.

Do I need to turn them on somehow? Maybe it’s an iOS thing rather than a Drafts thing.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Dan

Drafts has a number of editor settings on iOS (Aa button at bottom right) which could affect the appearance of the predictive suggestions, most notably “Auto-Correct”. Have you disabled auto-correct in that screen? The suggestions are part of the auto-correct system.

(These are things that can also be set at the system level in iOS Settings, but I assume you are seeing suggestions in other apps, and this is Drafts-specific)

Yep, that was it! I had assumed that Auto-Correct was something else…
Thanks very much for your help.
