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.

How to delete SwiftKey data? Respondida

I would like to delete all my SwiftKey cloud data because I want to start from scratch. When I go to data.swiftkey.com and press on the big red button "delete backup", a small window with a turning circle appears, telling me "in progress", but it stays there forever, and when I go to the hamburger menu and open "view data", I can see that all my data is still there and absolutely nothing was deleted. Also, when I go to "Permanently delete my account" and delete my account, which is supposed to be permanent , I can just log back in at a later date and see that neither my account nor my data was deleted.

Hi all,For the last day or two the dedicated emoji button doesn't show on my keyboard, even though the option is turned on.The only thing I can think of that might be related is that I've subscribed to the beta version of the Google app.Keyboard theme is Carbon but switching doesn't seem to change anything.Restarting helped but after a while it's missing again.I'm using a Poco X3 Pro, running on MIUI 12.5.7.Would really love the help.

Lost all of my clips from clipboard Respondida

Didn't know until recently that the three lines on the keyboard gave you access to the clipboard. Well, the first time I found it, all of my clips were there. After going back to the keyboard, I tried it again, this time hoping to paste something. But when I went to the clipboard the second time, all of my clips were gone!
I thought maybe the keyboard was just acting up, but when I went through the actually SwiftKey app, all of my clips were missing from there as well!
What the heck happened? Can I get them back?
*I didn't download anything or do a phone or app update of any kind before this happened.*

Clipboard improvement Respondida

Please add a feature that allows users to control clipboard content while posting from clipboard, while the clipboard is open, so there's no need to select where we want to paste the item, open clipboard paste the item, close the clipboard, select new area and open clipboard and then again close, open... Select... I propose that you add arrows in the clipboard, space and enter button that could control where a user would like to post items from the clipboard. If you didn't understand my suggestion, I can try to clarify it further.

As a bilingual user, SwiftKey sometimes replaces English words by Dutch ones which is pretty annoying. Gboard uses backspace to undo the correction so can you please implement this?

Please add this to Malayalam language

Hi, Just wanted to say that it is next to impossible to type the word "trip" in Malayalam. It always add the word "drip" which is correctly translated as "ട്രിപ്പ്". The t sound is "റ്റ". The d sound is "ട". Similarly for the word "tree" it wrongly translates to "ട്രീ", which sounds like "dree". So for "trip", just replace "ട" to "റ്റ" and it will be perfect.

Punctuation keys next to Space
1
voto
1
comentario
There is one thing missing from this keyboard to make it perfect, in my opinion. Something LG keyboard has and is very useful: the ability to change the most used punctuation key(s) near the space bar. Right not there is a "," and a ".", the latter having a drop-down menu. I would like to be able to change them to what i use most. In LG, this is possible and you are even able to move their location (left or right).
Would you consider implementing this in the future, please?

Replacing auto space after manual correction with punctuation Respondida

Whenever I manually correct a misspelled word or use a suggested word from the strip, a space is automatically inserted. This is pretty annoying if you want to use a punctuation mark right after. Gboard replaces that space with a punctuation mark when you insert one. Can you guys implement that in swiftkey as well?

Long-time user. Last night I got an error saying that I needed to sign in. I can't remember if I was signed in with my Microsoft account or Google account, but I can't sign in with either. "There seems to have been an unexpected problem, please try again in a moment." I've deleted and reinstalled the app. Argh.

Period Key

Probably 85% of the mistakes I have to correct are the result of hitting the period key instead of the space bar. Can we have an option to move it, or make it a hard-press or long-press, or.....something. It's my only significant problem with an otherwise outstanding keyboard. Thanks much.

Bullet, checkmark characters?

Won't you please include the bullet ( • ) and checkmark ( ✓ ) characters, so useful for lists of items and tasks? You could easily add them as alternate long-press symbols. It's the only thing preventing me from switching from GBoard to SwiftKey. I've asked for this for a couple of years now on Play Store, but maybe you don't read those comments…? Thanks!

Been using SwiftKey for a decade or so, but only recently, on my galaxy s20 fe, it sometimes won't show corrections, or provide any advanced functions at all. Which means I can't use macros, and spend more time correcting mistakes than typing effectively. So is there a way to force proper functionality on the fly? I'm using version 8.10.11.3
