Hide iOS Keyboard Predictive Text Bar - UITextView / UITextField

Question

Seems that setting

autocorrectionType = UITextAutocorrectionTypeNo;

for a UITextView or UITextField no longer sufficient to hide the iOS keyboard's predictive bar.

Has Apple decided that this can only be hidden by the user in keyboard settings? Or this there still some way to do this programmatically? We need to do this for our app that includes spelling exercises.

Answer 1

This removes the predictive text bar for me:

@IBOutlet var tf: UITextField!

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    tf.autocorrectionType = .no
    tf.spellCheckingType = .no
}
