My predictive keyboard no longer works

[Craig Sieben]

For the first few months I was amazed by my S4's predictive keyboard and using continuous input was the fastest and easiest way to input but so thing changed in the last few days, it does not remember old words I used and is not learning new ones either. I also find that It is making far more predictive errors, when before I found it almost intuitive.

To my knowledge I have not changed any setting and so I am concerned it is because of an update or an app.

I am not sure what other info to supply- any advice would be appreciated.

Welcome to the forums!!
Try Settings>Application Manager>Samsung Keyboard>Clear Cache. See if that helps.

I use SlideIT keyboard. Although the internal one is good, having to tap twice to find the comma was bad.

Pull the battery after you clear the cache per other forum comment

Thanks, I gave it a try and the performance seems to have improved (accuracy of predicting words) but it is still not recognizing words which I use regularly and it does not learn new words... Anything else I could try?
