i have predictive text disabled in keyboard settings, but sometimes when i’m typing it pops up anyways and doesn’t go away unless i close out the keyboard. it used to be something that happened every so often but now it happens frequently. i turn predictive text off because it’s distracting to my eyes and i don’t like it. how do i stop this from happening?
iPhone 14 Pro Max, iOS 17

Re: predictive text popping up even though i have it off
Seems this is the method you have already used to turn off predictive text:
or 
.Wondering if it is now the auto-correction that still pops up?
Eg: Apple support says:
"When you turn off Predictive, iPhone may still try to suggest corrections for misspelled words.
To accept a correction, enter a space or punctuation, or tap Return.
To reject a correction, tap the “x.”
If you reject the same suggestion a few times, iPhone stops suggesting it.
Note: Turning off the Predictive setting turns off both predictive text and inline text predictions."
Above is from: Use predictive text on iPhone - Apple Support

Seems:
Auto-Correction uses your keyboard dictionary to spellcheck words as you type
If you find you want to turn Auto-Correction on or off:
Above is from: Type with fewer taps - Apple Support
All the best :-)
