Auto space after punctuation is a bug! 

Why is a character I did not type being inserted into what I am trying to type?

Bug!

One might say "Well, it's just a space".

What if it were another character being inserted without typing it...a zero perhaps? 

Bug!

It is annoying to have to backspace to remove a character I did not type.

If this action is truly intended then PLEASE give us an option to turn auto space after punctuation off.

1. Fuzzy Chinese can't be turned off. I already turned off all the fuzzy options but still, when I type in jianpin, it turns into one fuzzy Chinese character. For example, if I type "gsm", it returns 干 instead of 干什么。

2. The input never learns new words. Same example as above, I've typed "gsm" so many times but it still doesn't remember what I what it to be.

3. A little improvement would be great : when I type one character, in the bar that I can choose characters from, there are only 4 choices in a row. It would be better if one single character can take less space and make more characters in a row.

Hi

I am using a Tap keyboard and, overall it works very well.  The one thing I can't find a solution to is selecting the suggested words.  Tap state that there is no setting for this, however, I was wondering if Swiftkey might hold a solution. 

I have noticed that when I am typing with the screen keyboard hidden (for physical keyboards) the suggested keywords have a superscript 1, 2, & 3 next to them running from left to right.  I am assuming that these numbers relate to a shortcut to them.  My question is, how do you access these shortcuts?  It might be through a function that the Tap cannot replicate, but I would like to know so that I can see if I can work it into a solution.

If anyone else is using a Tap, I would be interested to know if you have found a solution to the suggested words issue.  Tap support is useless.

Cheers!

Whatsapp Version: 2.20.27

Swiftkey Version: 7.4.8.3

Phone: OnePlus 6

How to reproduce:

If you are in a Whatsapp chat with someone and Swiftkey is ready to type. Tap on the Home button and quickly tab on the swiftkey keyboard. This somehow opens Google Assistant on the Hardware mentioned above. This doesn't work with the build in Google keyboard.

After upgrading to One UI 2.0, I've been having this issue of "double spacing" when I tap on the spacebar. While typing, the space between words are double instead of single. When I switch over to the default Samsung keyboard, this doesn't happen.

I've tried clearing cache, re-installing and even installed the beta version but have yet to resolve the issue. Not sure if other users are facing the same bug. Hope someone has the solution. TIA.

Hello, my name is Jasmin... And i have a few suggestions rather than questions. I would like swift key to make the space bar bigger and the arrow keys smaller because when i hit space it always hits the arrow... And i would like to have a choice weather or not i want to space after a period... It automatically does it and its a hugh pain trying to type web pages if it always spaces

All autocorrects turned off, wasn't happening few months before. Sample - write sentence "That would be". Put cursor after word "would", start deleting letter by letter. When there's only "That w be" remaining, text suddenly changes to "Thatul be". If I try to correct such cases (especially in longer sentences), usually I'm getting some other meaningless replacement, to the point where I'm unable to correct at all without rewriting everything from the end. That's insane.

Further in the sample, autocomplete options still show choices "wouldn't would would be". If I select "would", final sencence becomes "Thatuld be". Which looks like replacement indexes are getting corrupted, in addition to the autocorrect which had to not happen at all.

Hello. My problem is about backup and sync. First I have to tell you these. 5 years ago I was using LG G3, and I moved on iPhone 6 Plus and I was able to use my old predictions. And then I moved on Xiaomi Mi 8, I was still be able to use all my learned data. And now I changed my phone to Oneplus 7 pro, and in the app I cannot see any of my learned data.
https://data.swiftkey.com/view-data in this website I can see my learned data, the words that I use most before on the other phones, but they won't show up on my new phone. 5-6 years of learned data was making my life easier but now I am not happy to use this app. So question is what should I do?

First Uninstall previous SwiftKey keyboard, then download and install SwiftKey version 7.0.9.28 apk file and sync your account then update the app from play store. 

it will work

Currently using latest beta.  I am a technical / computer person and therefore my writing vocabulary often includes things with period/dots in them that are not words (i.e.  e.g.  192.168.1.1 www.vcu.edu and so-on).  The constant forced auto-insertion of a space when I am trying to use a period as a dot, not as punctuation, is driving me crazy and often forces mangled/incorrect emails, texts, etc.  I thought turning on the option to insert a period by double-tapping the space bar would turn that off - it did not.

I seem to recall in a previous version of Swiftkey there was the ability to turn off the dot/period from forcing a space after it.

I think when I tried another keyboard (GBoard?) it did not do that.  However, I am used to the way Swiftkey works and would hate to switch to something else....

Hello, I would like to request a Samsung theme based for Swiftkey. 

This is the one I'm talking about:

You see it has rounded corners, no shadows, white and silver-ish, and they're simple and beautiful. And its easier to type on them. Please bring it to Swiftkey!

I've searched for every theme available to download and none of them are closed to these.

Hi. I'm using arrows keys on my keyboard but is often for me that instead of space bar I'm pressing arrow key and it make me a lot of mistakes. Can you add possibility to change arrow keys to total top position above number keys?

I'd like to delete some themes I don't want so that when I look at the ones I own in the "yours" list I'd only see the ones I want to use. Isn't there a way to hard press to delete a theme in my downloads? Even if they take up little space, it's quicker not to have to scroll through themes.

Using either beta or normal swiftkey, using the search function will cause it to become unusable.

How do I get portrait keyboard or t9 option

I use SwiftKey on Android since almost the beginning. I'm pretty used to it and have found my preferred way of setting it up.
One of the settings I like is the option to not capitalize words automatically. When I chat I mostly prefer not to start with capital letters unless the conversation is formal or professional.
Since maybe a week ago, some (not all) of the words predicted in Spanish are being capitalized automatically and it's annoying. This doesn't happen with all the words, but it must have been a mistake in a language update or something similar (I didn't manually update of change anything in the app during the last month).

I tried enabling the feature and disabling it again but it didn't solve the problem.

Hi. I really like SwiftKey, I've been using it for 10 years. I like how it is design to optimize the writing speed in spite of human errors.

I'm going to report an issue that has been happening to me for years, and it's caused by human error, not by app design, but considering the concept of the app, I think this should be taken into account.

I write using the prediction bar, always, I only use the spacebar when I'm writing a new word that I don't want autocorrected. Very often while typing fast I press by mistake whatever is on the top of the prediction. It seems that the prediction bar is too short and it causes many different problems: If I'm writing in GMail, it moves the cursor to the end of the text (after the signature), if I'm on Google Sheets it makes me touch the symbols that are on the bottom of the screen, and in other apps it opens the sticker list.

I tried changing the size of the keyboard and it helps, but my problem is not with the size of the keys but with the size of the prediction bar. I would like to have an option to make the prediction bar taller without affecting the size of the keys. Another idea would be to add a small space on top of the keyboard. This could all be optional.

I also tried forcing myself to not tap so high, but after literally a decade of repeating the problem I'm contacting you for help.

Thanks,

Rodrigo
