When using in game chat in Wordscapes I have black screens for different emogi sets. Not always the same set of emojus missing (eg, tranport, sports, flags etc) which set is missing appears to be random but always at least one set of emojis is blank. I'm using a Samsung Note 20 Plus, latest OS.
Predictive text adding extra words Beantwortet
1 Stimme 3 Kommentare

I thought the issue was with my old phone for a year, but then it persisted when I got a new phone and I realized after some tests that SwiftKey is the issue. It will happen several times a day now and is getting worse. If I intend to write "I see what you mean" and I press the predictive text for SEE, it sometimes will add a word and type "see that" which ends up with me sending "I see that what you mean" This is infuriating and constant. I will send a work text and say "The front gate is open" and it will end up being "the front door gate is an open" and I look like an idiot. None of these added words are visible in the prediction area at all while I am writing the message and I can't find anything online about it. Im only writing this because Id rather not leave SwiftKey and I hope there is some fix. I have autocorrect off so no words should change themselves at all.
Sync Clipboard Beantwortet
8 Stimmen 9 Kommentare

I see there other posts on these but the *status is closed without any conclusion.*

How important does SwiftKey think is a good idea to sync Clipboard? This often consists of my usernames or passport number, greeting messages to my clients. And after every phone reset or phone device upgrade, I have to redo everything again. I need to take the trouble of copying every clipboard pinned texts to Evernote and then put it in SwiftKey. We are heading into 2020.
Feedback/suggestions. Prediction dictionary. Beantwortet
0 Stimmen 3 Kommentare

Would be great to be able to edit the prediction dictionary without making the trigger word be replaced every time the words similar. Particularly when it comes to emojis. Being able to add a trigger word (or start of word) that puts the emoji as a prediction. E.g., I'd put "hehe" to predict 😅. But at the moment if it's put in clipboard the word is replaced automatically. Overall I love swift key! Been using it for years with every new phone
REQUEST: Cursor Control be given its own button Beantwortet
0 Stimmen 1 Kommentar

Cursor control is currently handled either by arrow keys or by holding the space bar and dragging. What if we could have a dedicated button or caret to accomplish the same function that is in the space bar? After all, the space bar is at the bottom of the screen so that moving the cursor down is all but impossible using that method.
Deleted words keep coming back Beantwortet
1 Stimme 3 Kommentare

When I do "remove prediction" on a word they SwiftKey has learned, I mean REALLY REALLY stop predicting that word. No matter how many times I type it like that, I always want SwiftKey to autocorrect it to the real word and never learn the wrong word again. (In fact, it would be great if SwiftKey could learn to predict phrases and NEVER learn mistyped words at all.) There isn't a setting for that that I'm missing, is there?
Blank space before exclamation mark in Korean Beantwortet
0 Stimmen 1 Kommentar

I have three languages installed, French and English on one keyboard layout (AZERTY) and Korean on its own keyboard layout. Recently I had to reinstall SwiftKey because after an update the emoji page was crashing. Since then, when I type some Korean words such as 안녕, SwiftKey automatically adds a blank space if I add an exclamation or interrogation mark, just like it would in French (only for some words): "안녕 !" instead of "안녕!". It turns out that if I disable French, this does not happen. What puzzles me is, for this to happen when I type English words makes sense to me as English and French share the same layout, but why does French interfere where I'm typing Korean words made of Korean characters with the Korean layout? Is there a way to fix this, even if I have to do it for each individual word? I'm using SwiftKey 7.7.7.7 on Android 11 (Google Pixel 4a 5G).

Clipboard font changed color Beantwortet
-1 Stimmen 1 Kommentar

I woke up with my fonts on my clipboard all a deep blue and I use a black background so it's really hard to read (OK I'm 🧓). Thing is that I can't find a way to change that font color so I can't change it back to white! The text pastes into documents and emails just fine in normal colors. I ASSUME I had my hands on the phone while asleep and we all know the nightmare that can cause!
New toolbar introduced, how can I hide or disable it? (2020) Beantwortet
5 Stimmen 9 Kommentare

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.

When I press next paragraph on Android it will automatically delete all the spaces and some apps (reddit) will not put a new paragraph if there is no space at the end of a sentence. I have to press space 5 times so it doesn't delete all the spaces at the end of a paragraph.
Customize URL suffix list Beantwortet

Is it possible to customise the list of suffixes on the .com button? I live in the UK and would like to have .co.uk as an option in the list, maybe even the primary one, although I'd live with .com as the primary. This must be the same for most countries. Can it be changed? Thanks.

Need to have key pop up much bigger and also maybe in contrasting colors. My thumbs are fat and like to press the wrong keys. It would make it much easier to see what letter I have pressed. Right now I can't even see the letter that pops up.

Microsoft SwiftKey keyboard tool bar Beantwortet

Nice keyboard, but the 'menu bar (tool bar)' on the keyboard is 'vertical pop-up' it take little more space on the display. My suggestion is pls... make this menu bar like 'horizontal pop-up' like 'Gbourd' it is compact to us and it looks quite good on the keyboard. Pls fix it, instead it has very nice features.
