Oppo: Disable Block Offensive Words in Gboard

Typing certain words on your Oppo keyboard and getting no suggestion at all can be confusing, especially if autocorrect skips slang or informal terms you actually meant to use. This happens because the Block offensive words option in the keyboard text correction settings filters out profanity and vulgar terms before they reach the suggestion bar. Switching this filter on or off changes exactly what Gboard is allowed to suggest while you type.

Block Offensive Words in Gboard Suggestions auf Oppo

Gboard on Oppo phones filters out profanity and vulgar terms from its word suggestions by default. This is controlled by a single setting called Block offensive words, part of the keyboard's text correction options.

When enabled, Gboard suppresses explicit or crude words from autocomplete and suggestion strips, even if you type them correctly. Some people rely on slang or informal language in messaging apps and find this filter too restrictive, so Oppo lets you turn it off.

To change it, go to SettingsAdditional settingsKeyboard & input methodGboardText correction, then toggle Block offensive words on or off.

Turning the filter off does not disable autocorrect or spell check for regular words. It only affects whether explicit terms appear as suggestions. If you share a device with children or use it for work, keeping the filter enabled avoids accidental suggestions of inappropriate language.

Frequently asked questions

No. The Block offensive words toggle only affects suggestion and autocomplete behavior for profanity and vulgar terms. Regular spell check and word prediction keep working the same way.
