I would love to have bitmoji support baked in as an attachment, the same way gifs are. Snapchat even recognizes if you're talking to a user who has it and puts your bitmojis together.

How can I turn off the feature which adds a space after every predicted word I select, or punctuation mark? It should only insert a space if I then decide to add another word. Having to delete excess spaces at the ends of things, or sometimes after the "#" in a hash tag, is really getting old quickly.

like many other mobile. device users I find myself typing the period by. mistake way too easily (ex: twice in this sentence and same in the title). any. configuration. option I could use to help prevent this? if not, nay chance you could add a feature to mitigate this. I love swiftkey!

Hi, please remove the bing search from top bar. 

I don't want to search in a keyboard app, it is very annoying, feels like ad for your other products. At least let the user decide as an option.

Thx. 

Hi,

Official Lithuanian keyboard standard has letters ĄČĘĖĮŠŲŪŽ on the number row for quick access. While numbers can be accessed by long pressing LT letters, because we use LT letters much more often (almost in every word) compared to numbers.

Current Swiftkey Lithuanian layout has LT letters accessible only by long pressing (to get ą we need to long press a). And this is painfully slow to type.

Here's an example of good implementation https://imgur.com/u28aA28

Please add the correct layout for our language.

Thanks.

SwiftKey is the best. The only thing I wish I could change was the voice dictation button placement. On big phones it is hard to get to. Give me the option to place on right side if screen (like gboard).

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....

I have been using SwiftKey since I first switched to Android about five years ago I do believe the SwiftKey is the best keyboard for Android. One problem I always have had is I constantly go to hit the spacebar and I enter a "." {period} I believe it would be great if I could make the space bar either larger or remove the punctuation key next to the space bar all together. It seems no matter how hard I try if I am typing fast I can't seem to hit that space bar without hitting the period at least once every 25 words. It would be great if even there were certain skins that maybe changed the size of the space bar or remove certain keys. All the other keys I hit by mistake autocorrect takes care of. I still believe screen responsiveness is a lot better on iOS than Android so I don't believe this is really a SwiftKey issue or my typing but SwiftKey does help the shortcomings of this android app issue.

It would be quite useful, if there were a way to search for emojis, when the Emoji button has been pressed.

It should be kind of like how Gboard does it, where you switch to Emoji mode and then you can search (eg. you type "cat" and see the cat emoji 🐈).

This is a feature request for the SwitfKey Android keyboard; I cannot use Swiftmoji, as it is english only and not available in Switzerland.

It would be really awesome to have Bitmoji integrated with SwiftKey. I've been vying for this feature suggestion for a while. It's a really great feature. Hope Microsoft will consider it in the future. Thanks for listening.

Hi team,

At my country (Vietnam). Many people use idevice to work, relax, and more... but have not any keyboard better swiftkey. I love Swiftkey when i used android phone. But i need iphone to use for my work. We had wait for a long time to use Vietnamese language pack on Swiftkey (ios version).

Can you help to add Vietnamese language pack to Swiftkey for IOS ? I think many people will be happy with this decide from you. Thank you very much for read this. We love Swiftkey and waitting for Vietnamese language pack.

Please deactivate automatic spacing after typing a dot, or add an option to NOT insert a space (" ") after typing a dot/period ("."). It is very annoying, as the dot is a common character in any text field or text area (think input fields and text editors, not just web addresses, code editors and alike).

Although this issue has been reported several times, there's still no reaction from SwiftKey/Microsoft for SEVERAL YEARS. Maybe the issue is not tracked anymore as it is associated with a "permanently deleted user".

Could it be possible to add a option to disable gesture input altogether?
I do not like using flow as it makes me type slower, so I put it in gesture and because of that, sometimes deletes words or lowers the keyboard which is very annoying.
I am just wanting you to add a option to disable it entirely. I know I would use it, and there has someone else out there too!

Hi,

Would it be possible to choose where the arrow keys row is (top/bottom/middle/left/right)? Currently they can only be on the bottom (regular layout) or in the middle (thumb layout) but both of these options are very inconvenient, as arrows get pressed all the time by mistake. For example, I constantly press arrows when intending to press Space and it drives me nuts. On the other hand, I like using the arrow keys. To me, the solution would be just to have the arrow keys on top, so that I never press them by mistake.

On 7.0.7.26. If I left the emoji panel on the recents tab, it will open the recents tab next time.

However, if I left the emoji panel on other tabs (e.g. smileys & people, animals & nature, etc), opening the emoji panel will default to the predictions tab again. 

Just because it's intended behavior doesn't mean it's not terrible. Please undo this and just make the emoji panel open to whatever tab we were at last.

I have a s6 which has just updated to Android version 7. I have swiftkey set as my default keyboard and it works fine. However, when I go to type a text message, if I hit the emoji icon on the one line entry field, I get the massage "samsung keyboard has stopped working", even though its set to default and I can see the swiftkey keyboard. I have to disable swiftkey and set back to Samsung in order for it to work again. Any ideas?

Currently voice input can only be accessed by long pressing , button.

We want a dedicated voice input on the keyboard somewhere beside word predictions or somewhere else.

Please support Chinese (Simplified and Traditional).  You are missing out 25% of the human race. 

For my phone (like a Samsung) with a AMOLED screen, I would like a completely black theme with the primary and secondary keyboard letters and symbols white. To save battery and also be functional.

My iPad keyboard now looks like the attached picture. It's squished and unusable. I'm not sure what happened. I've tried restarting my iPad and reinstalling Swiftkey but it's still stuck in this weird squished size. To add, I did not touch any settings or anything. I just opened my messaging app one day and the keyboard was this shape. It’s squished in portrait mode as well.

Help?

Hello,

I wish I have the opportunity to use the symbols of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), and the symbols that indicate the "quantity" in Latin words (long and short), on all the vowels. I'm a student of linguistics and I think it could help a lot of people. 

Best Regards

I use SwiftKey for years now and I've got rid of most of the weird suggestions now, but it took extremely long and I had to remove lots of words every day for many years. And still I sometimes get suggestions like
"gaucho Hagan Hitchens Cecil Barco barstool Megan yap naval brouhaha..."
that nobody needs. And that after removing thousands of words from the dictionary.
I know that the dictionary must be somewhere in SwiftKey's app data, since it has to be saved offline somewhere. But normal users can't see/edit some binary file in a protected folder, so my suggestion is:
Please make the list of words that are currently in the dictionary available to edit in some form, maybe as a text file (although I doubt it could be opened with the RAM of a phone), maybe as a list with checkboxes to delete many entries at once, maybe in another form.

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 love that SwiftKey Beta finally have released Photo Themes, and given users a possibility to design your own custom theme!!!

BUT it needs the possibility to deside the COLOR OF THE FONT. Without it it's not very usefull. It would also be good if you add a way to determend how transparent the photo theme is.

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

Hi Swiftkey Team,

i just switched from Android to iOS and the iOS Stock Keyboard is horrible. I've been using Swiftkey for years (also bought it long time ago) and the usability on Android is awesome :)

When i decided to switch to iOS I was glad to know that swiftkey is available for iOS as well. Sadly the User Experience on iOS is very poor in comparison to your Android Version.

If you could implement the following things, it would make the user experience a lot better:

• Special Characters as second Option for normal characters (best would be the same order as on android)
• seperate comma key
• enhanced QWERTZ Layout with dedicated umlaut keys (öäü)
• Adjustment of longpress duration
• 3D Touch for removel of whole words
• cursor selection through long press on space key

And I would REALLY Love to have the "Classic Dark" Theme back. I found it very helpfull that not every key has its own border, but the keyboard layout is kind of rastered.

Please think about the mentioned things. I am sure many people would love it!

Thank you and Greetings from Germany,

Christian

A search box for the emojis would be helpful. would save having to scroll through every single one to find what you're looking for

Is a one-handed keyboard in your product roadmap? If so, what is a realistic timeline on when to expect it? I will return to using it at that point and it will be my default keyboard indefinitely. 

this situation is really ridiculous - why is Chinese input available for Android, but after all this time and so many iterations and versions, it is still not available for IOS? Please don't tell us to keep switching with the IOS keyboard, that is not a valid answer.

When will Chinese, and especially Pinyin input for Traditional Chinese, be added to this app?
