iOS Shortcuts
Hey fellow SwiftKey users,
I'm a fan from my Android days, and I absolutely LOVE having SwiftKey on my iPhone now. However, I'm a big user of custom keyboard shortcuts in iOS. I can't seem to get them to work with the SwiftKey keyboard, though. Anyone else have this trouble? Is it just a native iOS limitation?
Thanks!
I had the same issue and SwiftKey support told me that Apple does not allow third party keyboards access the shortcuts.
I think the best solution would be if the developers added a similar function directly in the app where we can create a new set of shortcuts that can be used with SwiftKey.
Indeed! We need a Shortcut feature if shortcuts cannot be accessed because of restrictions.
The version 1.1 was released on 18th December, and specifies that it now imports iOS Keyboard Shortcuts. That feature is amazing, if it could work! I have not yet figured out how to make it function properly. Actually, that feature does not even seem to be operative!
Will the app be updated soon to solve the shortcut problem?
Hello,
Are you still having this issue. I just tested this with a few different short cuts I created within the Apple device settings and they worked like a charm.
Please let me know if this is still an issue.
