Using Google speech to text

I can't use it. If I stop for a second it will stop recording and I get this pop up which won't go away off my screen whilst blocking the keyboard, for an unacceptable duration....further to that, sometimes the keyboard won't go away and I have to restart my phone so I can't even continue with typing... This is the popup: "Your audio will be sent to Google to provide speech recognition service. A transcript will be shared with this app"... Can you please inform Google of the situation because I don't know who to ask or where to send anything and this is their problem as we know... there was no issue in the fairly recent past. I really enjoy using SwiftKey and have for a long time I don't want to go away from it. But I will have no choice if this issue is not addressed by Google.. Thanks kindly note that I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling SwiftKey I have the latest version it doesn't change anything
