PS4 or PlayStation 4 is a good gaming console with some stunning features and great gaming options. Here, we are talking about its auto-suggest keyboard.

Word auto-suggest is an excellent and catchy feature of PS4; however, it may not be that fascinating for some users. The search terms are stored in the database when you search with the auto-suggest keyword on PS4.  

Whenever you start typing on the PS4 keyboard, the stored search terms will pop up at the top of the keyboard. This is a good feature, but it might cause a lousy impact if the user has searched for some crazy words. 

In some cases, the auto-suggest may cause security breaches if you have searched terms related to your secret words or passwords. In PS4, the auto-suggests feature is known as the PS4 learning dictionary, and it can be turned off from the settings.
