How to Disable Input Method Hint in macOS Sonoma 14.0

macOS Sonoma 14.0 is the latest version of Apple's operating system for Mac computers. It comes with several new features and improvements, including an input method hint that helps users with text input. However, some users may find this hint distracting or unnecessary and may want to disable it. In this article, we will guide you through the process of disabling the input method hint in macOS Sonoma 14.0.

To disable the input method hint, follow these simple steps:

1. Click on the Apple menu icon in the top-left corner of your screen.
2. From the drop-down menu, select "System Preferences."
3. In the System Preferences window, click on the "Keyboard" icon.
4. Switch to the "Input Sources" tab.
5. At the bottom of the window, you will see a checkbox labeled "Show input menu in the menu bar." Uncheck this box to disable the input method hint.
6. Close the System Preferences window.

Once you have completed these steps, the input method hint will no longer be displayed on your screen.

If you ever want to enable the input method hint again, simply follow the same steps and check the "Show input menu in the menu bar" checkbox.

Disabling the input method hint can be useful for users who are already comfortable with their keyboard layout and do not need the additional assistance. It can also help reduce visual clutter on the screen, especially for users with smaller screens or those who prefer a minimalist interface.

It's worth noting that disabling the input method hint will not affect your ability to switch between different input methods or languages. You can still use the language switcher in the menu bar or use keyboard shortcuts to switch between input sources.
