Microsoft SwiftKey Android Support Forums

I'm using Microsoft Swiftkey as my Japanese keyboard. Currently, the only way I've been able to pull up katakana and small characters is by typing it entirely in hiragana and hoping that it didn't decide to split the word (because then it won't correct it).

If there isn't a way to do this on Swiftkey, I'd appreciate suggestions for alternatives that do have these things. Thank you.

I see a lot of issues here being blamed on using a Google account so figured it would be a good idea to switch over to my MS account whilst upgrading my phone. When I log out of my Google account in the app, it wipes all my data so I can't log in and sync with my MS account.  There's an option to export my data which I can clean up using a json editor but no option to import it back in. 
I switched over to SwiftKey from Swype (which I'd been using on my Symbian phone) a decade ago and being a Brit company I've been evangelical with my support for the app over the years.  It has always managed to stay ahead of or at least keep up with the curve. However, over the last couple of years, it is increasingly playing catchup.  I only notice the gap when upgrading my phone and having to temporarily use Gboard or Samsung Keyboard.  With all the data you have collated and MS's AI knowledge hopefully you can shake off the cobwebs and get back on track or maybe next time, we'll stick with the default keyboard. Oh, the irony! 

The keypress vibration for SwiftKey Beta 7.6.1.2 on my Samsung Galaxy S10 stopped working out of nowhere, and my phone doesn't vibrate when I press a key.

Here's what I tried:

* Enabling system vibration on the SwiftKey settings.

* Disabling system vibration and setting a custom vibration (my phone vibrates when setting the vibration duration slider, but not when pressing keys).

* Rebooting the phone.

* Clearing all cache and data from SwiftKey.

So far nothing worked, and my keyboard is vibrationless.

SwiftKey does not automatically turn off the capitalization on HTML input tags which feature autocapitalize=off. That is very annoying, many web apps use this to prevent unwanted automatic capitalization on certain inputs. SwiftKey ignores this.

See https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2015/04/autocapitalize for details.

Brand new to SK! In fact, to my delight, I discovered it only 30 minutes ago! It works flawlessly on my iPhone.

However, at the shortest pause, the mic turns off on my Android tablet. Annoying. So, what am I missing?

If there's a GPS signalcould SwiftKey offer its data in the options for location?

Hello

After my microphone quit working I spent three hours messing around and finally got it somewhat back. Seems that "Google Voice Typing" was toggled on and interfering with SwiftKey. After I turned that off it seems to work but now I have another problem. Now I'm seeing this screen (See attached) that I've never seen before that has to do with Google and it's giving me suggestions but it's causing another issue. It's creating one more step before I can send a text and more importantly...it also doesn't listen as long before and  it quits recording.so I find myself having to erase the text and start it over again. It used to give me the option to continue my existing text. Do you know if this has anything to do with SwiftKey or with Google

Thank you in advance for any suggestions

After the recent update, it is impossible to remove items from the toolbar. Can you pls consider re-instating the option of removing unwanted buttons to allow "swift" entry than making it mandatory to keep 6 buttons.

I'm running andriod 10 on a Pixel 3 and voice to text has become more and more erratic. It's always had seemingly random capitalization and now, as of the past few days, random punctuation. Getting to the point of being unusable? Anyone experiencing these problems?

A new toolbar with many new features has been introduced (https://9to5google.com/2018/03/15/swiftkey-update-toolbar-stickers/). However I don't need it and it disrupts my workflow (buttons present in the text input, like Telegram stickers, are now 1 row more distant from text input). 

How can I disable it?

Update:
Thanks for the answers and the interest.

Solution:
You can disable it by pressing the button on the left of all the words prediction, the one that you see in the picture, and it will be hidden.

I do't know for what reason, but my android keyboard suddenly had an extra row at the bottom. Contained within it is an input selection button (bottom left), a massive blank space(waste of space) and a keyboard off down-arrow (right). I would like to remove this row but cant find an option. I even uninstalled reinstalled the app and it's still there so presume it appeared as part of an update. It makes typing harder due to having to reach over the empty space. Picture below. 

Please advise!

Will it be possible to add the "Ç" key next to the "L" key?

As a suggestion, after selecting a previously typed word, it could be possible using the Shift key, for example by selecting the word "time" and using the Shift key once the word gets the first capital letter "Time". When you press the Shift key again, the letters are all uppercase, "TIME".
