There is nothing more I can share with you, Sorry.

The docs state that the input properties on ion-textarea called autocomplete and autocorrect can bothe either have the value „on“ or „off“. For whatever reason I had to use autocomplete=„true“ though. Spellcheck however is not a property of ion-textarea.

Did you managed to fix this issue? and how?

worked for me as well. Thanks
