Leave the screen, come back and tap the field again. If it still does not show, open Keyglow and check that both setup steps are ticked.

Check that look is set to Match my launcher, and that Hyprtile or Phosphor is your home screen. If the line asks you to update your launcher, update it from Google Play.

Suggestions and autocorrect follow the language you are on. Tap the globe key next to ?123 to switch. The globe key shows once two or more languages are on.

Tap delete right after the fix. That takes it back and Keyglow will not make that fix again. You can also tap your own word in the strip before you press space, add the word under add a word, or set Autocorrect to Mild or Off.

Hold that suggestion. It moves to never suggested on the your words screen, where you can allow it again.

The lights hold still when animations are off in Android's settings. Also check that the light is not set to Off or Steady.

In settings, tap Forget everything Keyglow learned, then tap again to confirm. Back up your words first if you may want them later.
