  • Period Key
    10 votes 10 comments

    Probably 85% of the mistakes I have to correct are the result of hitting the period key instead of the space bar. Can we have an option to move it, or make it a hard-press or long-press, or.....something. It's my only significant problem with an otherwise outstanding keyboard. Thanks much.

  • SwiftKey acts as dumb keyboard in some cases.

    Been using SwiftKey for a decade or so, but only recently, on my galaxy s20 fe, it sometimes won't show corrections, or provide any advanced functions at all. Which means I can't use macros, and spend more time correcting mistakes than typing effectively. So is there a way to force proper functionality on the fly? I'm using version 8.10.11.3

    Думают ли разработчики обновить внешний вид стандартных тем клавиатуры тёмного и светлого режима? 2022 год, много нововведений, а внешний вид остановился в развитии в далёком 2010 году.
  • 按住空格移动光标并不是一个好的 交互方式 Answered
    1 vote 1 comment

    按住空格用光标非常的难以操作, 还不如直接在文本中点击对应的位置。

    建议丰富 操纵光标的 交互方式, 现如今仅有箭头键, 对一般的 输入 几乎没有帮助。

    建议添加 选择 、剪切、复制、粘贴 等功能, 现在这些功能只能在文本中点击拖动 来实现, 这样并不方便选择文本, 常出现多选、 漏选的情况, 这和箭头键精确选择的 方式 是背道而驰的。

  • constantly hitting the send key, before im ready to send or enter the text
    0 votes 1 comment
    i can't begin to estimate how many times I've accidentally hit the enter key and ended up sending incomplete sentences, because the enter key is right below the delete key, so every time i have to backspace there's a risk of accidently sending the text. you guys have to fix it, please give us more theme options, that has all other keys in the default layout but puts the enter key somewhere else, or even just add a option to require a prompt before entering the text, that way if i accidently hit the enter key, a prompt will come up, tap outside the box to cancel it out. I've already been looking for a alternative keyboard. because i can't take much more of this awful placement of the enter key

  • Incognito mode
    0 votes 1 comment

    I have just had to do a reset on my phone and after reinstalling Swiftkey it now changes to Incognto mode whenever I am in the app drawer. I can't read the incognito theme at all (whoever thought dark grey on a black background was a great idea should be shot), and as a result the keyboard becomes useless when trying to do an app search. How do I stop it from changing modes in the app drawer? It's not like I have to hide what's on there, it's not typing into a sensitive app, it's just the app listing for heaven's sake.

  • Doesn't underline words in red on a Vivo phone running Android 12. Answered
    -1 votes 1 comment

    In the settings of the "spell check" method, the gboard keyboard is indicated and there is no SwiftKey in the list, but my mistakes are not underlined in red in any of the languages (English and Ukrainian), I don't know what to do, everything works on an old phone from Vivo with android 11.

  • Chinese Keyboard
    1 vote 1 comment

    I switched from Gboard for two reasons: 

    1. I'm a Microsoft person. 
    2. Gboard's lag was killing me. 

    However, you guy seriously need to improve your Chinese keyboard. Mainly because it's hard to type actual names since I don't remember every single character. 

  • Synchronisation problem.
    4 votes 3 comments
    Hi Microsoft! I understand that you are a giant tech company and you want to buy any other company or product that seems to be interesting. But please when you do that, try at least to keep the same quality level as we experienced with SwiftKey company! Thousands of words are not synchronized and I need to write again and again! And there is no support to fix this issue! I hope you'll react to this post!
  • Disable fullscreen keyboard/centre fullscreen keyboard in landscape
    6 votes 9 comments

    1. On Android it seems to force a fullscreen keyboard in apps such as Whatsapp (making typing replies impossible) but not in others (such as Chrome) where context is less important.

    How do you fix this bug?

     

    2. On fullscreen keyboard in landscape mode, the keyboard won't stay where you want it and instead will only go to the far left or far right.

    This only occurs in landscape and fullscreen.

    Again, how can I disable this and have it where I have specified?

     

  • Keyboard stop showing up on various apps since Android 12 update (OPPO X2 Pro) Answered
    0 votes 3 comments
    I have been a long time user of SwiftKey without issues. Since the last official Android 12 update on my Oppo find x2 pro, the keyboard stop showing up quite randomly : for instance, I sometimes have to reboot my phone in order to make the keyboard appear while clicking on the search bar of several apps (Instagram, WhatsApp, and the problem is the same even while trying to test the keyboard in the SwiftKey app). I also noticed that while typing a WhatsApp message, the keyboard disappears if a receive a WhatsApp notification. Switching to the stock keyboard fixes the issue, but I'd really like to have SwiftKey working again...
  • MS SwiftKey GIFs Not Working Answered

    MS SwiftKey is not inserting GIFs, but is instead inserting links to the Tenor GIFs. I have reviewed several other posts about the same issue, some spanning 3 years prior. Back before MS took it over. Is there any fix in the works?

    When I tap the numerical key to type numbers. The app freaks out and reverts back to letters. It's frustrating when you're trying to type a series of numbers in. Long press takes well.....too long. lol.
  • Wrongly added character "ã" on the Spanish keyboard Answered
    0 votes 3 comments
    It doesn't exist in Spanish. It has replaced the position of "á" when you keep pressed the A, which is very frecuently used in that language. Please, delete "ã" or relocate "á" in the first position given that is much more used than "ã" and/or "@". Thank you.
