Me gustaría cambiar la fuente de las letras que tengo, me parecen muy aburridas.

I don't want any words suggestion. How can I stop words suggestion in swiftkey keyboard. 

If you check the reviews on the playstore many people who use the thumb layout are saying the last update makes it unusable. 

The space in the middle is now almost 75% of the keyboard

Please fix it or add the option for the old layout. 

You can't expect people to use this keyboard for years and then change the layout. 

About a week ago (about Sept. 25, 2020), my Google Voice Typing, which I use with SwiftKey (now owned by Microsoft), stopped working.   The microphone stayed on in listening mode for only about two to three seconds (depending on my device), unless I kept talking rapidly and unnaturally without any pauses, almost as though I were reading a book for one of those speeded up commercials.  If I paused at all, or stopped to think briefly, the microphone would shut off, and I'd have to tap it again to continue.  Sometimes it seems like it doesn't hear me at all after I tap 'Tap to start', or maybe just hears a few words, stops listening in the middle of a sentence, and then stops a few seconds afterwards, as though I had stopped speaking.  It never used to work like this… I was able to use it very efficiently to compose writings on Google Docs.  I would be able to pause from 5 to 10 seconds before continuing speaking.

I wonder if the speech buffer is filling up, and that's turning off the microphone, and then it stops a few seconds later because it's not hearing anything anymore.

This degradation happened about the same time on all my Android devices where I used Voice Typing.  I noticed that I was asked to agree to permissions again when this problem started, and the user interface also changed, so I think that this happened because of a faulty upgrade. 

I haven't yet found anyone else complaining about this happening recently.  I also wonder if it's some app I installed that uses the microphone, but I can't find anything so far. 

Any ideas…?  Thanks.  David

P.S.  I tried Voice Typing in Google Docs on my Chromebook laptop, and the microphone stays on for about 23 seconds after I stop talking.  This is how it should work on my Android devices, and pretty much how it used to work, although I'm not sure it stayed on quite that long.  I wish there were a setting on it so it would stay on indefinitely until you turned it off.

P.P.S.  I just replaced SwiftKey with Gboard on my Android tablet.  Now Google Voice Typing works just fine.  In fact, it appears to stay on for a very long time before turning off, just the way I would like it to act.  Strange that a Google update has just effectively destroyed one of Microsoft's SwiftKeys most attractive features…  Hopefully, it was just an unfortunate coincidence.

And too bad that Gboard is apparently not as good as SwiftKey.  I guess I'll find out...

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 turned off Autocorrect but still words are altered when I type

why is that ?

I have a request to you that you have to introduce rupees sign in your keyboard for Indian users

Whenever I am opening the app it is simply loading till the start up and gradually crashes automatically. This is happening right after my upgrade to Android Oreo from Android Nougat on my Note 8. Can anyone please assist me to get it working again?

Update: The app has been working smoothly once again upon a fresh installation. Thanks for the solution, Alpert : )

Hi, 

SwiftKey started suggesting me "c è" everytime I press "c", which is annoying as what I really want is "c'è" with the apostrophe (Italian).

My problem is I cannot get rid of that "c è" as if I long press the suggested word, nothing happens. Long pressing other words works, so this is really strange.

Thank you in advance,

Francesco

I want to use emoji :p when I long press p, please add this function

Swift key becomes worst one due to it do not have option to on/off auto spacing after punctuation. If I'm typing my mail which includes 3 dots. I want to back space each dot place. Very worst. And irritating. Please include an option to on or off auto spacing after punctuation.

I like the flow and I like gestures. Gestures have an option to delete by swiping to the left ⬅, and to hide keyboard by sweeping down ⬇, but I'd like to see a feature where we could move pointer, just by sliding our finger on the keyboard.

In one of the old versions of Swiftkey the numbers panel showed numbers vertically (i.e. the way you see on a calculator) but now the numbers panel shows it as a row. I already have a row of numbers in my text panel, I usually switch to numbers panel when I want to enter big numbers (like credit card number) and it feels natural to use a calculator type layout to enter

can you please bring it back?

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?

 I have been using swiftkey for awhile and the other day while using it to swype the letters randomly changed. The "W" and the "Z" switched places on the keyboard. I can not figure out how to get this changed back. This happened once before and I had to delete it and re-install. 

Suggestion. I am on Android not sure if all versions are the same or not.

But i like to use the question mark a bit and unfortunately your long press (on the period/dot) highlights the period first, which is a bit counter productive.

Can you pretty please make the question mark the first option when the long press menu comes up. Or better yet move it to a single option long press maybe.?

Best keyboard out there otherwise, thanks very much.

O teclado omitiu a tecla Ç, e deveria estar presente no teclado para o padrão de escrita brasileiro ABNT.

Where did the Ç key go?
The keyboard omitted the Ç key, and should be present on the keyboard for the Brazilian ABNT writing pattern.

Is it possible to set swiftkey to always show keys with accented characters? E.g. in a separate line, like in xperia keyboard, which is now unfortunately dropped by Sony in favour of swiftkey. If swiftkey doesn't know this setting, I have to search for something else.

Hi,

when entering an email address with Swiftkey, there's the key with the @-sign to the right of the space bar. When doing a long press, it offers a list of domain names (for me "@yahoo.com", "@hotmail.com" and "@gmail.com") for quick fill. Is there any way to edit this list? I would love to add a few entries to this list.

Best regards,

Daniel
