Predictive feature for Vietnamese keyboard doesn’t work

Hi there BangNguyen93,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you are trying to use predictive text while using the built-in Vietnamese keyboard, but it is not working. What happens when you try to use predictive text? It looks like Vietnamese is one of our supported languages for this feature. You can see more here: iOS and iPadOS Feature Availability.

Make sure the predictive text feature is turned on and that you are using the built in Vietnamese keyboard and not one that you have downloaded from a third party: How to use Auto-Correction and predictive text on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

We hope this helps!

Hi again BangNguyen93,

Thanks for the screenshots. Does predictive text work when you use your English keyboard? If you remove your keyboards and add only the Vietnamese keyboard back, does predictive text work? If it does, try adding the English keyboard back again.

About the keyboards settings on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.

We hope this helps!

The disappearing word predictions seem to be an issue affecting several languages on iOS 14, not just Vietnamese:

Swedish: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251957404

Russian: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251813374

Russian 2: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/252070902

Turkish: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/252104082

Most of the people experiencing this issuse (including me) mentions that English continues to work. Also, a reboot or changing keyboard/dictionary settings only bring back the predictions temporarily, it seems.

(I'm Swedish user having this problem with the Swedish keyboard)
