Can you turn off quick type?

[The Doctor11]

I just dont like how much screen it takes up and right now I dont think its something I need or want. That could change when I use it but Im still wondering can I turn it off

Turn of auto-correction

Im kinda hoping they fix that so I have an option to turn off quick type but keep my normal auto correct

Is that the only way? Wtf. Even when Apple adds something, they have to take away something

I wanna use autocorrect without prediction.

I sure do hope they decide to add a simple switch in the keyboard settings to turn it off. There's already not that much space on the iPhones screen on current devices.

Guys, I just noticed if you slide on it will minimize and if you slide it will come up.. Stays closed when closing messages application fully and clearing it from memory.

You may have to tap it first.

How do you turn the new keyboard on ? I've loaded iOS 8 on my iPad and it looks no different than before.

There isn't a new keyboard...it's available for 3rd party apps to update a new keyboard...they'll appear soon I'm sure

Looks like the feature is not yet supported on iPad.

How often do they use that time?

 

[PayamFr]

you can swipe it down so it hides predictive text

They will allow you to "go old school" by changing back to the "classic" keyboard.

Why do I feel like this is a step backward with autocorrect? I'm not running the beta so bear with me. But BlackBerry had the same autocorrect on my Storm2 in 2010.

which part is a step backward exactly? Apple added a suggested words UI for the keyboard similar to what Android has now and that's a step back?

Press and hold the global keyboard key or the emoji key is then the option to shut it off appears.
