I’m referring to the white box/field that appears above the system keyboard. As the user types they see their text appear in this text preview area and in the text field in the game. It results in a poor and quite confusing user experience, and has also led to some defects.
Our developer has told me that he is trying to use the “hidetextpreview” field, but that it does not work. It seems to not show up on the iOS app, but it is still visible on the Android app.
Does anyone have any ideas of how to get rid of this text preview box?
Let me know if there is any other info I can provide. It would be amazing if we could get this resolved.
Thank you in advance!

Really? No one has any ideas? Please help!
There’s no way to get rid of that box at the moment.
We used to support hidden input in 4.x, but it was causing many issues, that’s why it is disabled in 5.x.
The look of that dialog was a bit improved some time ago. (of course it’s not a masterpiece!)
I don’t think you can do anything about that at the moment. There are plans to expose this code to the user so that you can modify it as you wish, but I cannot share an ETA.
@Yury-Habets : When you ask the keyboard for the “area” does it give you the area of the keyboard plus that text preview box?
Can’t tell for sure - could you just check and calculate? 
is the solution available yet?
Hello @BhudevHariomGupta , have you tried enabling Hide Mobile Input in Input Field component? If this is not the issue please submit a bug report with a minimalistic project that showcases the issue and post the bug ID here.
Sorry to necro, but is there a way to only remove the white box? Turning off mobile input seems to remove any mobile input functionality, such as the ability to move the input cursor or select text.
