You seem to misunderstand me. I mean autocompletion without pressing anything. Like it happens in *any *proper IDE - Eclipse, IDEA, VS Code - you name it. You *don't* loose seconds to press some key combination there. It happens as you type. I suppose that's not supported in Geany?
Geany's behaviour is as expected; you type some number of prefix characters (Lex mentioned the pref. that controls it), and it offers a list of suggestions. If the selected suggestion is the one you want, press Enter and it will be completed, otherwise keep typing and the list is narrowed until the completion you want is available (or not) and then press Enter to accept it. It's basically the same as all editors/IDEs I've used which offer auto-completion (QtCreator, VisualStudio, Code::Blocks, SublimeText).
Maybe you disabled autocompletion or messed with one of the related settings? You can run Geany with the -c argument, passing some new directory there and Geany will write out a fresh config which you can use to test that.
