Disable autosuggest

Question

My textfield name is searchtextfeild. When I type anything, it autosuggests as in the given picture.

enter image description here

Now, I simply do not want to show this autosuggest. I want to disable it.

I tried,

searchtextfeild.autoautocorrectionType = FALSE;

Strange thing is though searchtextfeild is textfield, it does not have property autoautocorrectionType. Anyway, how can I disable this autosuggest?

Actually I found solution. My searchfeild was using library. And autocorrectiontype works — Lasang, Oct 07 '14 at 12:21

Check this please:

searchtextfeild.autocorrectionType = TRUE;

For some strange reason it works for me.

autocorrectionType property has type UITextAutocorrectionType which is enum:

typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, UITextAutocorrectionType) {
    UITextAutocorrectionTypeDefault,
    UITextAutocorrectionTypeNo,
    UITextAutocorrectionTypeYes,
};

So you just need to do

searchtextfeild.autocorrectionType = UITextAutocorrectionTypeNo;

Disable autosuggest
