Microsoft SwiftKey iOS Support Forums

Say for example I'm typing the word 'atmosphere'
Before the last update, I was able to manually type out A, T, then continue to end the word by swiping from M through E. And the word completes.

However.. Now.. If I were to manually type A, T. Then continue to swipe the remaining letters. The A, T will end as 'at' and start a new word with the swiping input from M to E.

This is annoying as I've gotten used to using a combo of half manual type and swiping to complete typing style. It is also one of the reasons I've stuck to SwiftKey! Cos no other swipe keyboards allow this feature.

Please rectify 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Why is the flow value cape cape Faroe creator creator creator creator creator despite feature so inaccurate. That is how it always works when trying to use the swipe feature. Tap typing helps to fix these problems, but for some users tap typing is hard for example I only have one arm so swipe is an important cape cape for feTure for me. Over time and the more that is used the worse the accuracy gets, I've used SwiftKey for a really long time but this cape Faroe despite Faroe Faroe Faroe fair creative feature have never been improved. And it's not the user or the justs users device, because when switching to any other swipe style keyboard the avian accuracy increases by 100%. Is this flow fair feature ever going to get fixed.
Uninstalling resets the tap map and accuracy is slightly better, but is there annoy way to reset the tap map, or turn off that AI stupidity, because it really makes everything worse. WordFlow was so much more accurate so why was that keyboard killed and not this one, and if the features from WordFlow were castor carried over why was accuracy not improved?

Hi, I'd like to know if it's possible to have the arrow keys in the SwiftKey app for iPad. I use SwiftKey in my Android Phone and I love this feature! it would be great to have it on iOS as well. Thank you in advance.

I love SwiftKey and have used it for years. However I hate the new Toolbar feature because it now means the three predictive word suggestions become truncated and not fully visible due to the space taken up by the + symbol. For example a suggestion of 'appear' shows up as 'A...ear'. This is pretty pointless given these words are supposed to be suggestions but can't actually be read. Previously if a long word was predicted / suggested then the font would just be reduced to fit into the space which was great but now it's just useless.

Anyone know of a way to disable the Toolbar? If not can SwiftKey look at making this new feature an option rather than a mandated feature?

I love using your keyboard, the ability to swipe and personalized predicting words and themes but the more I use your keyboard the more I feel like I’m fighting against the tap map AI to the point where I constantly make typos and have to rely on the autocorrect to compose text. I’ve recently reverted to the factory keyboard because I find that I make less mistakes and type more efficiently. If you could please allow us to opt out of the tap map, it would be an immensely appreciated addition to your app.

Thank you

Please support gifs for iOS keyboard as you do for android

The Bengali language is missing on the iOS version. I am familiar with the Swiftkey Android and interested to use the same on my iOS. Is that available or has any tricks to enable? 

اعتقد انني اتحدث عن شيء ربما يفيد لوحتكم و يميزها عن باقي اللوحات الاخري فواجب عليكم محادثتي بلغتي و دفع مقابل الوقت الذي سوف استغرقة في شيء يفيدكم لا مشكتي سوف تحل بكل سهول و هو التحدث عبر الهاتف و لاكن انتم من يحتاج الي تعليقي لان فيه وجه نظر ربما تفيدكم فعليكم احترام لغتي لكي احترم حديثكم و لا تنسوا ان اللغة العربية هي لغة علماء ربما همسبب في وجود برامجكم الذكية و منهم الخوارزمي تحياتي لكم

Since a few updates SwiftKey started to flicker, i.e. when I pick the text input area in an app (doesn't matter which one, same behaviour all across the board) SwiftKey shows up, quickly vanishes and then shows up again. If I start typing before it vanishes nothing happens until it reappears. That's annoying, but I can stand it if it weren't for..

Sometimes SwiftKey doesn't reappear, but the standard iOS keyboard. So I have to manually switch keyboard again.

Quite annoying, frankly. A fix, please?

Can the period key be removed, or moved? It's driving me crazy

 it's worked fine for over a year before this.

i click on the words in the left box...it does not help

i did notice it wants to sync to my email and facebook, which i don't type the way i text...but i didn't seem to have a choice in that matter.

any suggestions?

Hello everyone! I just updated SwiftKey and unfortunately, it stopped working completely. The keyboard crashes on start everytime. I'm on iOS 10.3.3 and iPhone 7 Plus

Perhaps this is a coincidence, but it appears that topics in private messages I am sending are appearing in advertisements shown to me in other apps.

Does SwiftKey sell content we type using their keyboard to advertisers?

For example, I typed an iMessage about an Omega watch and later that same week I started seeing lots of ads for Omega watches in the Wall Street Journal iPhone app.  I have not searched for Omega watches in any search engine, just typed about them in a private iMessage.

When I click on the SwiftKey Privacy Policy it goes to a generic Microsoft page that says Microsoft does sell data to advertisers.  Please let me know how my private data is being used.  Does this Microsoft policy of selling user data to advertisers include my SwiftKey account data?  Is everything that I am typing being compiled and sold to advertisers so that they can show me relevant ads when I read the Wall Street Journal?

Thank you.

When will shiftkey support wordflow arc style?

Thanks in advance...

 Hi guys,

I figured that on my Iphone 6+, SwiftKey is not working very well.

Issues started with some earleri iOS version about a year ago: When opening Safari, Facebook, Whatsapp or any other app that requires anything to be typed in, Swiftkey deliberately switched back to the preinstalled German keyboard on the Iphone. Hitting the Globe button to turn it back resulted in the same behaviour. It only worked out after the third or forth attempt. That sometimes did not allow me to react quick enough to critical requests for business purposes when seconds count.

iOS upates that followed in the meantime seemed to solve the issue, but since iOS 10.3.2 came in, the odd behaviour returned, plus, sometimes it does not even load the character interface of Swiftkey at all. Swiftkey is currently running on version 2.0.2 on my Iphone.

Rebooting the Iphone, de- and reinstalling SwiftKey as well as even resetting the Iphone to factory defaults and bringing in all my apps and settings again did not solve the issue. This is very unnerving!

Do you have any advise on how to solve that?

Hello,

in your languages not have Kurdish (sorani) for ios but in androit have this language , can you add it for ios?

thanks

Dear SwiftKey team,

Currently Im using SwiftKey keyboard on my iPhone, Russian and English keyboards and very happy with it. Thank you for your product, so much time saved!

Also, I used to have a phone with Android OS and used to have Japanese keyboard in SwiftKey. 

I wonder if you have a plans to bring Japanese keyboard in to iOS version or it will remain "for Android only"? 

Best regards,

Vlad

Is there any plans, and when will the app to iOS allow five languages and neural network, like the app to Android?

This has been an often demanded feature request for over 1.5 years now already on the former forum. Please, SwiftKey, keep up with your competitors and implement this feature asap now!

I installed SwitKey on my iPhone 7. I have set Italian as default language and I use two languages on my keyboard, that is Italian and English. In fact, on SwiftKey keyboard space bar I can see IT-EN.

Howeve, if I type by using that keyboard, in any foeld (writing an SMS or an iMessage, filling a field in a web form, creating a note, posting on Facebook), the text is ALWAYS underlined by red, as the words would not be recognized by proofer. 

Why?

No confirmation of support email sent so I post also here. 2.8.7 swiftkey. 14.4 ios. When I press prediction offered, another word will be inserted. check video

Phone Model - iPhone XR

Version iOS 14.4

Key Issue: After upgrading from 14.3 to 14.4, SwiftKey fails to work on any application (Microsoft Office 365 mobile applications, WhatsApp, native text messaging, etc.) even when it is the default keyboard. I've deleted and reinstalled the application, restarted my phone, and the Board will flicker to SwiftKey but then switch automatically to Apple's native keyboard. I've installed other third-party keyboard applications to test if this is an issue for them (e.g. Fleksy and GBoard) and run into no issues. Seems to just be an issue with SwiftKey.

Is there a recommended fix for this? This never occurred or was an issue prior to installing the 14.4 software update.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Any way to turn off the tracing of your swype while swyping on your keyboard? iOS.

Hi,

Something tells me that this question has been already asked before on that forum. I just could not find the right thread. I've just moved from Android to iOS with the iPhone 12, installed my favorite keyboard - SwiftKey.

One thing that I'm missing a lot is the functionality of deleting a word by swiping left to right on the keyboard. Something that I've used "a lot" on Android. Is there a way to enable it on the iOS version?

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.

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

I realy like SwiftKey.

It is one of the best.

But.

I am not always typing in english somewhere on the internet, i also write texts. In german.

And for german. SwiftKey right out sucks.

It is the worst thing i ever saw.

1) It has not german layout at all.

Why not?

Your popover selection window is ... horrible ... compared to real keys.

Let me show:

This is from the Apple keyboard.

But your's simply refuses to offer the proper keys!

Can you please finally fix this?

2) As a crude workaround, you offer some horribly popover menu

Now, this can only be a workaround, it is not usable for someone writing in german!

But anyway, this thing is wrongly configured for German!

If you hover over an "a" you get the pop-up, but the next key up is again the "a"!

The "ä" which you are searching for is far to the right, you need to search it in a long list.

The fix is easy: Just set the "ä" as the first character shown above your finger, when you long press!

Cannot understand why this is still not fixed.

But please don't forget: The popover is only a workaround. We still need a proper german layout as shown above!
