Predictive text is different from spell check, at least on modern versions of Android. See [https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/text/spell-checker-framework.html](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/text/spell-checker-framework.html). On my phone (Android 7.1.1), Spell checker (Google spell checker) is listed completely separately from keyboards:
