Microsoft SwiftKey iOS Support Forums

Hi guys,

If you've had a really good idea and want SwiftKey to hear all about it, the best way to do that is to submit it via the 'Feature Request' form here:

We look forward to reading all your requests and improvements.

Regards,

Hi folks,

Recently Swiftkey has started behaving strangely. At first I thought it was just a case of 'auto space' being turned off somehow (although I didn't do that) - but then (after totally failing to find any way to turn auto space on or off - despite following multiple online instructions) I realised it's worse than that.

When I type or flow several words, swiftkey will randomly remove the spaces between them - even if I manually typed those spaces!? Not always, but often enough that I look like a barely literate typer - and this makes the tool completely unusable. I've had to go back to the - totally unintuitive - iOS keyboard.

Can someone please tell me what's going on, and - more importantly - how to get back to the usual Swiftkey operation that I have come to depend on?

I cannot get to my swiftkey data on iOS and neither into my data on windows.

When I go to "view and manage your data" from my account (which is a Microsoft account), I get to the page data.swiftkey.com on my iPhone's browser (Safari, but I also tried Edge with the same result). Then I am asked to sign in, but I consequently get the following message:

Whatever I try, I cannot get in and stay in this same loop.

I use an iPhone 12, with iOS 14.6 and Swiftkey version 2.9.1

Miten tallennan viestini/korjatakseni sitä. Myöhemmin? 

I just installed version 2.8.4 from App store on iOS 14.1 and couldn't find either marathi or hindi languages for download. I thought Swiftkey had support for Marathi or Devnagri scripts.

Every time I use voice to text on any iOS app, SwiftKey's app opens itself and stays open. It is quite annoying.

Hello,

I noticed a couple notifications in iOS 14 about SwiftKey accessing my clipboard that I can't comprehend. It appears to happen sometimes after beginning to edit a textfield in a 3rd party app but also apparently randomly while browsing 3rd party apps.

I find this especially concerning when it happens after copying a password in a password manager. But also in other contexts it should be comprehensible ofc.

Why does this happen?

For the iOS version 2.8.2 of Swiftkey, it seems that the numeric keypad dot not respect the comma/dot regonal setting of the iOS device, and always shows the dot, even if the language/regional setting of the iOS device specifies a comma as decimal separator. I can long hold the dot to get the comma, but I would like the same option as on the native IOS, that the regional setting defines what the first option is.

Hello,
I just upgraded from an Android Smartphone to an iPhone SE 2020 iOS 12, but I cannot configure my Swiftkey keyboard to display the special characters above each alphabetical letter like I did on Android. .

I know that special characters are also accessible by pressing the "123" key then the "+ = #" key if I want to use the underscore "_" for example but it's really not practical, whereas on my Android Swiftkey keyboard, I just have to stay and press the "W" key to make the underscore "_"!

Can you help me configure my Swiftkey keyboard on my iPhone SE 2020 iOS 12 as on my Android please.
I'm placing a screenshot of my Android Swiftkey keyboard where the special characters above the letters I want to appear on my iPhone Swiftkey keyboard are outlined in red.
Thank you.

Bonjour,
Je viens de passer d’un Smartphone Android à un iPhone SE 2020 iOS 12, mais je n’arrive pas à configurer mon clavier Swiftkey de façon à faire apparaitre les caractères spéciaux au-dessus de chaque lettre alphabétique comme je le faisais sur Android..

J’arrive à faire apparaitre uniquement les chiffres au-dessus de la 1re ligne alphabétique. Je sais que les caractères spéciaux sont aussi accessibles en appuyant sur la touche "123" puis sur la touche "+=#" si je veux utiliser le tiret du bas "_" par exemple mais ce n'est vraiment pas pratique, alors que sur mon clavier Swiftkey Android, I just have to stay and press sur la touche "W" pour faire le tiret du bas "_" !

Pouvez-vous m’aider à configurer mon clavier Swiftkey sur mon iPhone SE 2020 iOS 12 comme sur mon Android s’il vous plait.
Je vous place une capture d’écran du clavier Swiftkey de mon Android sur laquel les caractères spéciaux au-dessus des lettres que je veux faire apparaitre sur mon clavier Swiftkey d’iPhone sont encadrés en rouge.
Merci.

Warum gibt es bei Swiftkey für iOS keine Umlaute in der deutschen Tastatur?

I'm not sure if anyone else is having this frustration, but SwiftKey almost never finds the emoji I'm looking for when I try to search. Examples: try "yawn" 🥱 or "mask" 😷

Why the IOs version is so below the Android version ???
I NEED the BÉPO layout. It is my keyboard since so many years, Azerty has become a no-brainier for me.
I very happily use Swifkey on android since 2012 and now that I have the newest Ipad pro, I have to switch to en expansive low quality app in order to have my good ergonomic, scientifically engineered layout.
How difficult could it be to add it on the IOs version ?
Thank you very much for considering it.

Hi, long-time Android Swiftkey user that switched to iPhone a year ago (11 Pro Max). Was thrilled when cursor control was added in, but ever since the addition, I've never gotten it to activate predictably. If I hold spacebar before typing any text, it activates properly. If I type a few characters, probably all good. But usually once I enter a word or two, a long-press does nothing. Haven't been able to find any info online about this, and none of the recent patches have changed anything. Any suggestions?

PS: I only have 1 language selected, and I have reinstalled multiple times.

Update: Upon further experimenting, it seems that hitting backspace before holding spacebar always makes it work. Hmm...

I'm running into a weird issue with SwiftKey voice to text on iOS (version 2.8): every time i pause momentarily it adds a period '.' as though it think i finished a sentence. I speak pretty quickly and my paragraphs are just filled with short sentences and periods. It also occasionally puts up question marks when its not a question. Has anyone encountered this? Is there a way i can disable auto punctuation on voice to text?

Thank you!

I have swiftkey version 2.7.8 on iPhone (ios 13.5) and ipad (ipados 13.5).
On iPhone the layout features a multipurpose punctuation key to the right of the space bar, which I find very useful. On the ipad this position is given to a second key to switch to numeric keyboard, which I do not need. How can I get the multipurpose punctuation key on ipad?

I've bought new iPhone SE 2. I've made synchronisation from old iPhone SE (iOS 12.4) to new iPhone SE 2 (iOS 13.4.1). SwiftKey has been automatically installed with full access and SwiftKey Flow turned on (done automatically via iOS synchronisation). When I've tried to write some word in any type of application with SwiftKey set as primary keyboard, the SwiftKey Flow seemed to have problems with gesture recognition and keyboard was shaking all the time like it can't figure out words.

Only fix that I've been able to come up was to uninstall manually SwiftKey and install from App Store and set access rights in the settings again.

I have a new iphone since a few days, the Iphone 11 pro max & ios 13 was pre-installed. But when SwiftKey is installed, none of the Android 10 emoji shows up, i just have the emojis up to Android 9. Without they keyboard the emojis are showing up. A known person of mine uses SwiftKey on Fmwhatsapp in Android 10 too and her emojis are all showing up but she has a Huawei P30. Is this problem devide-specific? What can i do that the emojis will show up? I don't want to have wasted my money on the new phone, SwiftKey is the only keyboard i can deal with..
