Setting the autoCorrectionType to UITextAutocorrectionTypeNo did the trick Objective-C textField.autocorrectionType = UITextAutocorrectionTypeYes; textField.autocorrectionType = UITextAutocorrectionTypeNo; Swift 2 textField.autocorrectionType = .Yes textField.autocorrectionType = .No Swift 3 textField.autocorrectionType = .yes textField.autocorrectionType = .no SwiftUI textField.disableAutocorrection(true) textField.disableAutocorrection(false)
A much simpler solution, which takes advantage of contentMode: arrow = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@”down_arrow”]]; arrow.frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, arrow.image.size.width+10.0, arrow.image.size.height); arrow.contentMode = UIViewContentModeCenter; textField.rightView = arrow; textField.rightViewMode = UITextFieldViewModeAlways; In Swift 3, let arrow = UIImageView(image: UIImage(named: “arrowDrop”)) if let size = arrow.image?.size { arrow.frame = CGRect(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, width: size.width + 10.0, … Read more
Ensure “self” subscribes to UITextFieldDelegate and initialise inputText with: self.inputText.delegate = self; Add the following method to “self”: – (BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField { if (textField == self.inputText) { [textField resignFirstResponder]; return NO; } return YES; } Or in Swift: func textFieldShouldReturn(_ textField: UITextField) -> Bool { if textField == inputText { textField.resignFirstResponder() return false } return … Read more

Using the textfield delegate, there’s a method – (BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string Return NO from this, and any attempt by the user to edit the text will be rejected. That way you can leave the field enabled but still prevent people pasting text into it.
The simple way is to connect the delegate of UITextField to self (self.mytestField.delegate = self) and dismiss the keyboard in the method textFieldShouldReturn using [textField resignFirstResponder]; Another way to dismiss the keyboard is the following: Objective-C [self.view endEditing:YES]; Swift: self.view.endEditing(true) Put [self.view endEditing:YES]; where you would like to dismiss the keyboard (Button event, Touch event, … Read more
