PLEASE HELP! I want to smash this phone.  😂 How do I get it to recognize words?

This message board does not play nice with a lot of keyboards.  There seems to be interference with word predictions and auto complete.  I use gboard and that seems to happen a lot.  I am not the only one suffering this problem.  I see a lot of messages with scrambled words.  Anyway, @loriann1969, consider using swiftkey or gboard.  These are a couple of the top android keyboards out there.

I did a quick google search:

go to Settings – System – Language and input.

Then select the keyboard you are using and press the Settings icon again.

You should be able to find a predictive text option on this screen.

Frig! It didn't even show the 3 words... Like the suggestions. None of them make sense. I have to type out entire words. I swear I'm not drunk! Haha

So like this. It won't complete the most simple words for me. I'm so tired of typing! LOL

Could you elaborate on the problem you're having? On which application are you using and what do you mean by recognize words? Are you talking about the auto-correct function that phones have?
