How can I disable spelling corrections in an EditText's soft-keyboard programmatically in Android? The user can disable it from settings, but I need to disable it in my application.
Is there any way to do this?

To turn spell check on or off on Android, you need to go to Settings > System > Languages and input > Virtual keyboard > Gboard > Text correction > Spell check and flick the toggle into the desired position.
Set this in your layout's xml for your EditText:
android:inputType="textNoSuggestions"
Or call setInputType(InputType.TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_NO_SUGGESTIONS) in your Activity'
If you need to support API 4 and below, use android:inputType="textFilter"
