To turn off predictive suggestions:
- Go to: Settings > General > Keyboards - turn off Predictive (at the bottom of the screen).

Oct 3, 2016 6:08 PM in response to Jonathan UKby cjam66,Thanks Jonathan UK, but I don't want to turn off Predictive for the entire device. just want to get rid of the pesky/annoying/useless grey bar in Message.

i'm sad that apple continues driving me ever closer to non-apple products through the accumulation of bad design/user experience choices like that one. maybe their beta testers aren't real people?

Oct 4, 2016 9:50 AM in response to cjam66by Jonathan UK,Under the previous version of iOS, it was possible to close / compress the predictive text bar from within Messages.
If you would like to suggest that Apple considers restoring that feature - or adding a Settings option to the same effect - you can do so here:

Or, their beta testers were people like me who were annoyed at accidentally hiding the predictive text bar. I like it much better now. It has noticeably improved my user experience. Yes, you can make the case that Apple should make it user selectable but, in reality, that's never been the way Apple does things.
Submit your feedback and hope for the best.

See this thread for a suggestion from Demo:
The steps suggested in that thread have the same effect as those in my first reply (Settings > General > Keyboards - turn off Predictive).
