I am making an android application that checks user's spelling skills, so it is mandatory not to get any help from his keyboard's auto-correction feature.

Can I disable it (auto-correction / auto-completion) through my application or I should create my own custom keyboard?

Try this:

android:inputType="textNoSuggestions"

In order to accomplish the above programmatically:

view_id.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_NO_SUGGESTIONS);
