Issue:
While typing in Microsoft Outlook on my Android device the Outlook "swipe" suggestion gets incorporated into what I am typing (even though I didn't "swipe") and inserts non-words into my text as I continue typing. Non-words also start appearing in the Mobile Voice suggestion bar.
This can occur when Outlook's text predictions interfere with Mobile Voice's predictive text feature.
What to do:
The work-around is to disable the predictive text feature in Outlook on your Android device:
- On the Inbox screen, tap the house icon in the upper-left corner.
- Tap your account icon to open the Settings screen.
- On the Settings screen, tap on your mail account to open the Account Info screen.
- On the Account Info screen, slide the toggle to disable Text Predictions.
- Tap the back arrows in the upper-left corner to close the Account Info and Settings screens and get back to your Inbox.
- You should now be able to type with no problems, and can use the Mobile Voice predictive typing suggestions.
