Predictive text is one of the most useful features on the Galaxy S25 FE. It suggests words as you type, making texting faster and more convenient. When it stops working, though, typing feels slower and less efficient. Luckily, there are several fixes you can try to bring it back.
Why Predictive Text Might Not Be Working on the Galaxy S25 FE
- Predictive text is turned off in the keyboard settings.
- The keyboard cache or data is corrupted.
- A software update caused a temporary glitch.
- Third-party keyboards are interfering with Samsung Keyboard.
- System software is outdated.
Enable Predictive Text in Keyboard Settings.
If predictive text is off, it will not show any word suggestions. Make sure it is enabled in the Samsung Keyboard settings.
- Open Settings, and then tap General management.
- Tap Samsung Keyboard settings, and then toggle on Predictive text.
Clear Keyboard Cache and Data.
Corrupted keyboard data may cause predictive text to stop working. Clearing the cache refreshes the keyboard without deleting everything.
- Open Settings, and then tap Apps.
- Tap Samsung Keyboard, and then tap Storage. From here, tap Clear cache.
If it still does not work, you can also tap Clear data. Keep in mind this resets your keyboard preferences.
Update Samsung Keyboard.
If the predictive text stopped working after a recent update, Samsung may have released a fix. Updating the app ensures it runs on the latest version.
- Open the Galaxy Store, and then tap Menu.
- Tap Updates, and then check if Samsung Keyboard has an update available. Install it if you see one.
Restart Your Galaxy S25 FE.
A simple restart can clear temporary glitches in the system. This often resolves minor keyboard issues.
- Press and hold the Side key and Volume down key.
- Tap Restart, and then wait for the phone to power back on.
Reset Keyboard Settings.
If none of the above works, resetting the keyboard may fix hidden misconfigurations.
- Open Settings, and then tap General management.
- Tap Samsung Keyboard settings, and then tap Reset to default settings. Choose Reset keyboard settings to confirm.
Predictive text problems on the Galaxy S25 FE are usually tied to settings or corrupted data. With the steps above, you should be able to bring back smooth typing and faster texting.
