Realme: Show or Hide the Keyboard Suggestion Strip

If word suggestions keep popping up above the keyboard while you type, autocorrect and predictive text are getting in the way instead of helping. That strip can also feel cluttered if you prefer typing without interruptions. On Realme phones running Gboard, this behavior comes from a setting buried inside the keyboard app itself, not the system keyboard menu.

Show or Hide the Suggestion Strip in Gboard auf Realme

The suggestion strip sits directly above the keyboard and shows predicted words as you type on your Realme phone. It comes from Gboard, the default keyboard app used on Realme UI, not from the system Language & Input settings directly.

Some people rely on it to speed up typing by tapping a suggested word instead of finishing it. Others find it distracting, especially when it keeps changing while composing a message, or when it takes up space they would rather use for the keyboard itself.

You can turn this strip on or off inside the Gboard text correction settings. Go to Tap on SettingsTap on Additional settingsTap on Keyboard & input methodTap on GboardTap on Text correctionEnable or disable Show suggestion strip.

Disabling the strip does not turn off autocorrect. It only removes the row of suggested words above the keys. If autocorrect itself is the actual problem, look for a separate toggle inside the same Text correction menu instead.

If you switch keyboard apps later, this setting will not carry over, since it belongs to Gboard specifically and not to the phone's general keyboard settings.

Frequently asked questions

No. The Show suggestion strip toggle only hides the row of predicted words above the keyboard. Autocorrect is controlled by a separate option inside the same Text correction menu.
