[Reported] SwiftKey Keyboard and Pixel 4 swipe to erase issues
PlannedHi,
I love SwiftKey and I always disable Flow because I use the swipe right to left gesture to erase the last word, but on the Pixel 4 it's horribly broken and doesn't erase 90% of the time. Extremely frustrating.
Please fix it.
Demo is here: https://twitter.com/ArtemR/status/1187120650659323904?s=19
Thanks.
Hi,
For this particular issue, please try the recent beta version 7.7.4 here http://bit.ly/skbetadownload to see if this solves the issue for you. Please keep us posted here if this works for you. Thanks!
Hello,
Looks like the problem existes only on Pixel 4? I could not reproduce it on Pixel 3.
If you can send a bug report at [here] that would be helpful.
Thanks for your feedback.

Correct, I have a Pixel 3, along with many other phones, and the Pixel 4 and 4 XL are the only ones with this issue.

I'll share your post to the team. Meanwhile if you could send a bug report with the link in my previous reply, that may help accelerating the process.
Confirmed too - I got my Pixel 4 XL today and just set it up. I've been using Swiftkey for years and always disable flow and use the gestures to swipe to delete previous word. I'm upgrading from a Pixel 3 XL which I have no issues with on the Swiftkey swipe to delete gesture but on the Pixel 4 it's awful. I don't really know or understand why it's so much worse. The swipe to delete on the Pixel 4 works maybe 10% of the time. It's sooo bad. I just wanted to also chime in and say I'm running into the same issue. Whatever you need from me to help investigate the issue, let me know
Morning all --
Just wanted to chime in here. I have the exact same problem on my Pixel 4XL. I upgraded from the 3XL where the gesture was just fine. But now, I really struggle to use it because it fails so often.
If anything could be done to correct, I'd be very grateful!
PS: I'd attempted to locate the spot to generate the bug report, but couldn't. Steps there would be helpful!
Same problem on my Nokia 8.1. Any updates, fixes or workarounds for this issue?
I submitted a report as per Alpert's suggestion, seeing how the issue is still not resolved. https://support.swiftkey.com/hc/en-us/requests/262894 (private link).
I have the same issue with a Pixel 4. I just submitted a support request.
Any update on this? Have the same on my new Pixel 4a.
The issue persists on the 4A 5G, swipe to delete is an integral part of my typing
Hello, thank you for sending these over. All information is passed on to our team. We do ask you to please create a bug report via the link mentioned above. Thanks.
Oh my god they finally fixed it (in SwiftKey beta for now), over a year after the Pixel 4 came out and the bug was filed. Better late than never, I guess.
Beta version did nothing to resolve this. Pixel 4a.
