Hey guys, the predictive text bar on my iPhone SE 2020 is not showing in safari, very annoying. Does anybody have a solution or is aware of this problem?
Ps. It is working with the 3rd party app; swiftkey (but swiftly only allows max 2 auto correct languages and I need 3)
iPhone SE, iOS 13
Hi, just turned predictive text off and a few minutes later on again. Problem still persists.
Also read the article you send me but there are no solutions there,just a summary manual.
Only when I’m using Safari the predictive text bar is not showing.....could the problem be Safari??

This is expected behaviour. Predictive Text does not work with search bar. It never did. That’s because search bars in browsers are powered by the search suggestions coming from the search engine you set to use with the Safari app. It appears though in a web form fields such as comment sections here.
You can see it on your screenshot 2 suggestions from Google Search; that’s how it works with the search bar.

Hi gino192,
As we research, we see that what you're seeing is expected behavior. There is not predictive text in Safari in iOS 13.
