Relocate or disable emoji
AnsweredI assume everyone at SwiftKey is younger than me. Great for you, but you are losing a lot of senior citizens as customers and users. I, like many senior citizens, have no use for the emoji on your keyboard. The only time I ever use emoji is on WhatsApp, and the emoji there is enough and unobtrusive. However, on your keyboard I frequently hit the emoji key when I aim at the z key or the comma. It is hugely irritating, to say the least. Can't you move the emoji key to the left or right of the number row at the top of the keyboard or better still, provide an option to just disable it. Please. Please as a beta user that is the first thing I look for with every new release.
Hi,
I think you have the emoji key right next to the space bar and comma key. There's an option in settings > keys, uncheck the "dedicated emoticon key". Meanwhile please check the option below, "emoticon access on enter key" so that only tap & hold on enter key can take you to the emoji panel.

I personally disable dedicated emoji key in settings. and set emoji to an Long press on Enter buttun. it solved my problem with randomly pressing the emoji key.

Thanks for letting us know the solution works for you.
Your app has the option of using more than 200 languages. Great, so add one more option - DISABLE EMOJI.
Am I asking the impossible?
