[Duplicate] Cursor Control - Spacebar

Answered

Hey guys,

I was wondering if in addition to the 3D touch cursor control there could be a cursor control function integrated into the spacebar?

It'd be similar to touch ID in the sense that it would understand the gesture as a distinct one.
It would require a clean swipe to the left or right starting on the spacebar to activate in order to prevent any unwarranted cursor control during multi-word swiping.

I believe it would suit the flowly nature of SwiftKey and be a welcome option for those either:
1) wanting cursor control without the pause 3D touch demands.
2) enables iPhone SE users to have SwiftKey offer another feature stock doesn't provide enhancing the SwiftKey flow optimised phone size.

Cheers for giving this a read either way and love the app guys!

    I absolutely support this, I'm considering going back to Google's keyboard now that I know they have this feature. Moving the cursor is nothing but a pain for me every time I try.

    It's worth nothing that currently the spacebar is currently used to change between languages.
