turn off safari suggestions in ios 11

That is seriously disturbing! Did no one at Apple test this out?

Did you try disabling the setting I mentioned? It seems to have worked for me, although I can’t recall any previous examples to re-test it.

I also have predictive suggestions disabled in the keyboard settings. Maybe it’s a combination of the two?

Yeah, I take it back. My suggestions have just come back, as random and disturbing as before.

There doesn’t seem to be an obvious setting to disable this. The annoying thing is that the suggestions are too erratic to be useful, even if I wanted this feature switched on.

Oh boy, that is disturbing. I’ve got some pretty odd suggestions too but nothing that bad. I want it turned off. I don’t like the privacy implications here because it seems the page contents are being analyzed somehow and suggestions are being sent back to the keyboard to show suggestions. Have we consented to Safari sending back info to Apple on our browsing habits? Has anyone tried this in private mode? If this send info back in private mode, it is a real abuse of privacy.

This was driving crazy as well. Glad to see I wasn’t the only one.

For what it’s worth, I think the solution might be to disable Safari Suggestions in Safari

Settings > Safari >

There is a toggle called Safari Suggestions. Seems To have helped so far

Settings > Siri & Search > turn off Suggestions in Search.

I’m having this same problem- have you found a solution?

Thanks

Would dearly love an answer to this too. It's completely unacceptable that you can't turn it off as it's essentially identifying metadata.

This is the exact problem that I am having. Extremely annoying that a fix hasn't been put through yet.

I've already got that turned off - unfortunately I'm still getting the suggestions.

It would be nice if apple could sort this **** out...

I too have posted about this. Seriously need a solution.

I’ve turned off the above but in addition, go to settings-> Siri & Search and turned off suggestions in Safari there as well and seems to be be working (so far)
