Microsoft SwiftKey iOS Support Forums

I'm really pleased the trackpad feature has been added to SwiftKey (it's so useful!). However, the way it is implemented in SwiftKey makes it a little less useful - particularly when scrolling up lines of text. The cursor seems to jump to the end of the closest word. Which sounds useful. But actually, because the cursor is jumping around all over the place, it's quite hard to follow. The way the trackpad is implemented in the default keyboard is much more intuitive - the cursor maintains its horizontal location when you scroll up. If it's technically possible, please implement this approach in SwiftKey! Thanks

If I try to input the short word We to start a sentence, it gets switched to just a capital E. Any suggestions?

Hey, SwiftKey, could you explain to your users why there's no Ukrainian language in the app? Thank you. 

Hey guys, is it not possible to create the exact same for iOS as for Android? I do need 4 languages English German turkish Arabic, at least 3 and it would be amazing if you just create the same experience for iOS users as Android. I swapped from android to iOS and missing few things badly.... Should be possible

hello , community

I have been using swift key for 2 years now and it has never dissapointed me

recently after i upgraded from ios 10 to ios 11.3 i guess it is crashing and showing me an black screen

any explanations? why it is happening 

NOTE- i  restarted the phone

          i updated the app store

HELP!

nevermind! i got the solution

best regards- 

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? 

Hiya,

So I've recently just come back to Swiftkey after originally using it as one of the early backers from Kickstarter.  Thankfully some of the bugs like the very aggressive emoji auto correct have been fixed.

However on my iPhone 6+ I'm getting quite frustrated with it already.  The keyboard isn't always present on my apps - Whatsapp specifically. As in the default iOS keyboard shows instead.   Plus if I do tap the switch keyboard button, Swiftkey will pop up and down a few times.  It may or may not stay up and sometimes it just goes back to the default.

If I'm going to use Swift... I want to use it all the time and I don't want it to be a faff.  Can anyone help me with this?

Cheers,

~ Ed

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!

The layout is broken on ipad mini 6 in portrait mode. It works fine in swiftkey settings where you can change theme and view keyboard preview, but in any other app is broken, see images.

On using the dictation feature, what is getting typed that is not known to the users and Voice Over remains silent. 

Hello,

is there on the roadmap either InTune support or business account support?

Speaking of in-tune at least not allowing to log in with personal accounts and preventing from managed to unmanaged apps would be sufficient.

Thank you,

Jakub

The magic keyboard allows switching keybaords on iPad using the globe button as shortcut. However switching to the swiftkey keyboard will assign the latest language selected, Is there any keyboard shortcut allowing to change to the alternate language from the hardware keybaord itself, without opening up the virtual keyboard?
