We recently brought Cursor Control to your Microsoft SwiftKey Keyboard for Android. This much-requested feature had previously only ever been available on iOS.
If you haven't tried it out you can do so by tapping & holding your spacebar to move the cursor.
If you use multiple languages, cursor control will need to be turned on first; this setting can be found in your ‘Typing’ menu.
Make yourself heard!
We'd love to know what you think. This is YOUR opportunity to help us shape the future of Cursor Control, e.g. is it useful? Does it work as you expect? Could it be improved? Do you love/hate it?
Whatever your opinion, we will take all feedback seriously.

One of my s20fe 5G phones does not allow me to do voice to text. When I long press the mic, it asked me to install Google voice. Google Voice is installed. My identical phone allows me to do voice to text. Any idea how to fix the one phone that's broken?

[Feature Request] More intelligent copy-pasting ! 🎉
0

comment
When you copy something, GBoard automatically recognizes emails, phone numbers, pin codes and urls. It then create separate clips (one for the full text and one for each of the recognized elements inside it). It would be easy I guess to develop such a useful feature for SwiftKey. Also when taking a screenshot, the image is also automatically added to GBoard's clipboard ! You can then send the image in no more than a single click in your conversations. That's dope and to be honest that's the only thing I really miss from GBoard. I really recommend you try this feature by yourself and see how GBoard makes it work, it's kind of a state-of-the-art :) Thanks!

Please add your own Microsoft voice system to the keyboard, because Google Voice is not available in the Chinese network, and with your own voice system you can also optimize your own voice input, just like the computer side

How do I edit personal dictionary

By accident, I added a misspelled word to my personal dictionary. Have to admit it's not the first time. Can users access the words they added to the dictionary? How can I edit the personal dictionary? (I searched for this question but only found 5-6 yr old answers saying it can't be done. Am hoping there were improvements since then!)

How to change clipboard 1 hour expiry settings

comment
Hi Team I would like to check how I can keep clipboard entries without pinning them more than for 1 hour. Any reason for 1 hour decision? It doesn't make sense. I am OK to clear entries on restart but expiry 8s my decision and I need to be able to control that. Also pinning doesn't seem to work as I can't see my pinned items from windows machine on my Android. I think that app needs a bit of improvements. Regards, Areg

SIMBOLS

1. Just enlarge the characters Primary and secondary. Without increasing the height of the keyboard, I don't use button magnification. Why do I need an increase if I don't see buttons themselves $ $$$ I damn how old the keyboard is $ $$$ you have 2 simbols $ in Russian layout, but and there should be a question mark here.
2. How to disable magnification if it is annoying.
3. make a customization for each your own: for example, as well as 20, 40, 60em in css.
I need a low keyboard and high letters. I don't need big empty designers spaces

I'm having trouble with SwiftKey remapping the Galaxy Tab S6 (running One UI 5.0) physical keyboard. For most punctuation symbols on the physical keyboard, I get entirely different symbols. See attached PNG table showing a) Top row: Key pressed, b) Bottom row: resultant symbol. If I switch to Samsung Keyboard, the problem disappears. SwiftKey ver 8.10.28.5

Ever since I updated my phone to iOS 16, my SwiftKey keyboard keeps glitching. It keeps switching back-and-forth from the keyboard to the emojis, then it just stops working and pulls up random letters and words. While I’m trying to type.
