Turn off autosuggest for EditText?

Is there a way to programmatically turn off that autosuggest list which pops up as you type in EditText?

Solution

  • I had the same question but I still wanted to set this option in my XML file so I did a little more research until I found it out myself.

    Add this line into your EditText.

    android:inputType="textFilter"

    Here is a Tip. Use this line if you want to be able to use the "enter" key.

    android:inputType="textFilter|textMultiLine"
