Hi,

I have an 2020 ipad air with ios 14.3, SwiftKey version 2.8.5 and if I try to share a post from Facebook to a text message while in landscape mode the send arrow is not operational and seems to overlap on the message window. If I rotate the iPad in portrait mode the send arrow works. Please fix this bug, I have been dealing with this for a couple of months but did not get a chance to report it. Thank you.

Symbol entry adds spaces wrongly Answered

0 votes

14 comments

There is ZERO reason for a space to be inserted before a colon. Maybe some symbols are ok with an inserted space but never that one. I spend a lot of effort removing spaces added before dashes as well. This has been a problem for YEARS and I would like an explanation as to why you would insert spaces that have to be removed and why you haven't corrected this. I assure you, there is no justification for this keyboard behavior -- it would be much better for users to have to enter the spaces they want before symbols than to remove the ones they don't -- so please make a fix.

How to disable auto backspace when using a punctuation mark? Answered

3 votes

3 comments

When using a punctuation mark such as colon ":" after inserting space after a word, swiftkey automatically remove the space and connects the punctuation mark with the word.

This was not the case in older versions.
How do we get rid of this behavior?

Also, another thing is that, after any punctuation mark, swiftkey automatically inserts a space after it. In older versions it used to happen only for periods "." , commas "," and semicolons ";"

But now it happens for colon ":" as well which I don't want.

Example for both problems:

While Texting: Life is sad :(

Turns to: Life is sad: (

Please help me fix this as well.

Thank you

How do I stop the incognito notification from appearing? Answered

1 vote

1 comment

For a while, every time I turn incognito on I get a notification telling me that I am using incognito that covers my keyboard for a few seconds. I am familiar with the incognito mode and I don't want that thing to make me wait every time I use it. Is there any way to disable it? I tried looking in the setting but even the 'disable notifications' button doesn't prevent the disclaimer from popping up.

"awkward" back with newest Android gestures when keyboard is up Answered

0 votes

4 comments

So, recently I have bought the new galaxy S20 and with it I have started to use the newest gestures. Everything is beautiful until the moment when I type something in keyboard and want to go "back" immediately without going touching above the keyboard to swipe from the side and then going back, because well the reachability in the area where there is keyboard is the best... The idea is that with the new gestures I can't go back when swiping from the side on the keyboard, it has to be done over it and I'd using whatsapp it may activate response mode on one of the previous messages... Other work around is adding "bring keyboard down" button which just ads bulk to the keyboard and I dont want it.. My sulution is that it would be veeeery nice to have a gesture tu pull down from the top of the keyboard to swipe down thus hiding the key board. Let's say from the middle of all 3 word suggestion "boxes"

Bug: predictions stop working in Chrome constantly, requiring booting Answered

-1 votes

1 comment

Device: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, Android 10 with One UI 2.5

On the inside screen ("tablet" screen of the this foldable phone) the Swiftkey prediction stops working after a few uses: predictions show up properly above the keys but selecting a prediction actually doesn't fix the written erronuous text but only adds a space after the incorrectly typed text. This is clearly a bug.

It always works for one use after a boot, but soon stops working again. So I reboot a lot.

This only happens in Chrome, in the address bar and in any text fields of forms. Restarting the app (force close from settings/apps) and then restarting it from app list does not fix it, only a reboot does. It's problematic that it happens in Chrome because that is the app where I type the most. I cannot change from Chrome since it is forced to be used in our company (a multinational industrial giant) on Windows and I wish to sync the browser with my private Chrome user id on that computer.

I have no experience if prediction works properly on the front screen as I never type on it (it is too narrow to type with adult hands).

The phone has been in use for only two weeks. Removing Switfkey settings (cache + saved data) and the app and reinstallation do not fix the problem.

It is very very annoying, almost enough to stop using Swiftkey and go to the Samsung keyboard. But I'd hate to do that since I've used Swiftkey for a lot of years and it knows my writing very well know. It is great, the rare times it happens to work.

I would make a bug report but cannot find where.The app does not have a feedback option anywhere.

Microsoft Translate doesn't auto translate If we copy the message twice Answered

0 votes

3 comments

Hello,

I am using microsoft translator with WhatsApp.
It is working smooth when I was writing my message and It is simultaneously translating my messages. Then I just send it.

Furthermore, when I select the incoming message and press copy button while Microsoft Translator already selected from the keyboard shortcut, It is directly translating the incoming message. This is superb, however, when I copy it twice, It is not translating the message, only copy the message to clipboard. If I select different message and press copy again, It is translating automatically. And If I select it again, It is not translating the same message anymore.

I think there is a bug at the usage of translator. Is there any way to fix it or any solution, your kind reply would be highly appreciated. Thank you.

How to make number row match the rest of the keyboard?

0 votes

My phone theme has been black on black on black on black with a beautiful accent of color of more black since my very first smartphone. Why is there seemingly no control over the color of the number row on this otherwise amazing keyboard? I just upgraded my phone and am trying to go back to using SwiftKey after the last 18 months on my note 9 using gboard because their number row matches. SwiftKey is better there's no doubt about that but this dang gray bar in the middle of my screen makes it unbearable. So much customization except this one simple spot.

Swiping left to delete works poorly Answered

Hello, SwiftKey keyboard in normal gesture mode allows to delete words with swiping to the left. This works on poco X3 only in approx. 20 percent of the cases as it always needs several tries. My assumption is that it has to do with the display sensivity. It's the same issue on a second poco X3 which I have as well. Regards

This is a feature request for making possible manual additions to the autocorrect. Regularly, words that i would like to be auto-corrected, are not. I cannot find a setting where i can add those words, together with the word to which i'd like the erroneous word to be autocorrected. This is a common function in desktop text applications.

Backspace doesn't work in GitHub Codespaces, GBoard works better Answered

0 votes

1 comment

GitHub Codespaces uses the Monaco Editor so anything that uses that is affected by this: Azure DevOps, Azure App Service Editor, and many many more sites. Easy repro steps: 1. Go here: https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor 2. Type something in one of the examples and then hit backspace a few times You expect backspace to remove the characters but instead it does nothing. I hope this can be fixed so I can use GitHub Codespaces on my phone!
