What do you mean removing suggested words?  Turning them off or removing specific words from the list?  If you mean removing the suggested words feature, you have to turn it off in the keyboard settings.  Turn off suggest text corrections.  If you mean removing specific suggested words from the list, there is no way to do that and no reason to do so, as if you don't want to use any of the words, you don't have to.

I hear you ā€” itā€™s frustrating when a feature like the keyboard, which should make typing easier, ends up causing more hassle, especially when dealing with things like suggested words or autocorrections that arenā€™t being removed as youā€™d like. Samsungā€™s keyboards, like Samsung Keyboard, have gotten some updates, but these kinds of persistent issues can still leave users feeling like things are just not right.

No I mean I've been plagued by an errored emailed that I typed in for 3 years. Long pressing and removing does nothing. Reset the keyboard it always comes back. And having no way to access the dictionary to remove it manually

Youve brought this up before. just ignore it when it comes up. If it's auto populating the field, just replace it with the correct address. That's not suggested words anyway, it's autofill, so it's not actually the keyboard. It also depends on which autofill service you are using. If you are using autofill by Google, you can edit your personal information to make sure the wrong email address does not appear there. If you are using Samsung pass, there does not appear to be a way to edit the info. The reason it keeps coming back is because the data is contained in one of the accounts and will come back as soon as you log into those accounts. So first see which service contains it. If it's Google that contains the bad info, you have to edit it in chrome.

 

I'm guessing it's the Google autofill that's keeping the erroneous information.  To edit it in Chrome, open Chrome, tap the menu - If doing this from the phone's browser, tap settings, go to addresses and more, look at your saved addresses, tap on the one with the erroneous info and delete it or change the email address.  If doing this from Chrome on a computer, tap the menu and select passwords and autofill then select "addresses".  Edit or delete the address with the wrong info.

So its for sure not Google. I've been through all those settings and didnt see it. Also I tried a different keyboard and it doesn't do it in that. Its only on samsungs keyboard. When I start typing the email it comes in the suggested. I can hold down press and remove from learned words. But it always comes back. I've tried resetting the keyboard. I've tried not restoring back ups. I have no idea where it keeps pulling it from. Its mainly annoying because I accidently press it when in a hurry. There's a couple certain apps that I use. That don't retain the log in info for security reasons. Its just really weird. New phone. No restore. Yet it pulls this info from some where. Just don't know where

Then it must be cointained somewhere in Samsung Pass. I have not yet found a way to edit the personsl info on Samsung Pass, only the logins.

I've turned off auto fill completely. I'll see if that helps.
