If predictive text suddenly stops working on your vivo S50, typing can feel slow and frustrating. Words no longer auto-complete, suggestions disappear, and corrections may not show up as you type. The problem is usually tied to keyboard settings, language configuration, or temporary system glitches, and you can fix it in just a few minutes.
Why Your vivo S50 Predictive Text Is Not Working
- Predictive text is turned off in keyboard settings.
- The selected language does not support predictions.
- The keyboard app cache is corrupted.
- The keyboard app needs an update.
- Third-party keyboard conflicts with system settings.
Make Sure Predictive Text Is Enabled
Predictive text must be turned on inside your keyboard settings. If the toggle is off, the keyboard will not suggest or auto-complete words while typing.
Open Settings, and then tap System management.
Tap Keyboard and input method, and then select your active keyboard.
Tap Text correction, and then toggle on Predictive text.
Check the Keyboard Language
If the wrong language is selected, predictive suggestions may not appear. Some languages also have limited prediction support.
Open Settings, and then tap System management.
Tap Keyboard and input method, and then tap Languages.
Add your preferred language, and set it as default.
Clear the Keyboard App Cache
A corrupted cache can interfere with how the keyboard processes suggestions. Clearing it refreshes the app without deleting your personal data.
Open Settings, and then tap Apps.
Tap your keyboard app, and then tap Storage.
Tap Clear cache, and restart your phone.
Update the Keyboard App
Outdated keyboard versions sometimes cause prediction issues. Updating ensures compatibility with the latest system version.
Open the Play Store, and then search for your keyboard app.
Tap Update if available, and restart your device after installation.
Restart Your Phone
A simple restart can refresh keyboard services and background processes. This often restores predictive text immediately.
Press and hold the Power button, and then tap Restart.
Wait for the phone to boot up, and test predictive text again.
Predictive text on the vivo S50 usually fails because of disabled settings or minor app glitches. Once you reenable the feature or refresh the keyboard app, suggestions should appear normally again while typing.
FAQs
Why did predictive text stop working after a software update?
System updates sometimes reset keyboard preferences or disable certain features. Checking your text correction settings usually fixes the issue.
Does clearing keyboard data delete saved words?
Clearing cache does not delete learned words, but clearing app data will reset the keyboard completely.
Can third-party keyboards affect predictive text?
Yes. Some third-party keyboards have separate prediction settings, and if those are disabled, suggestions will not appear even if system settings are correct.
