Predictive text has disappeared!

When I start typing on my Bluetooth keyboard on my IPad Air, a small keyboard icon appears in the bottom right hand corner of the screen and I have to press it to get the predictive text to appear, it’s only recently started doing this as the predictive text used to appear automatically. I’ve tried restarting my iPad twice to no avail. Please help!

iPad Air, iPadOS 15

Hi Superfluffy, thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities.


Can I suggest that you update to the latest iPadOS 15.3.1 (if you have not done this already) as updates can help resolve some problems. The following link can help you:

https://support.apple.com/en-au/HT204204


Can I also suggest you check your predictive text settings again as per the following linked article:

Can I further suggest you disconnect (Forget this Device) your Bluetooth Keyboard and reconnect it again.


If the issue is not resolved by the above support articles and suggestions, you can make an appointment and have your iPad inspected at an Apple Store or AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider). Please use this link to find one in your Country Apple – Location Selector. After going through the process, you will be given all the options available.
