SwiftKey doesn't work on Samsung Respondida

I have found a Google thread where many people have the same problem with s10+ and s20+, I'm using a A71. The issue shows when the Android OS is in another language than the default language on the keyboard. This issue make the language on the SwiftKey only work in English. It can't detect any other languages. At least the Swedish. Ive tried to contact Google, but they can't help me. What can I do? Right now I can't use SwiftKey in my own language. -
Using Katakana and small characters on Microsoft Swiftkey? Respondida
0 votos
1 comentario
I'm using Microsoft Swiftkey as my Japanese keyboard. Currently, the only way I've been able to pull up katakana and small characters is by typing it entirely in hiragana and hoping that it didn't decide to split the word (because then it won't correct it).
If there isn't a way to do this on Swiftkey, I'd appreciate suggestions for alternatives that do have these things. Thank you.

Can I clean up my data and migrate it from my Google account to my Microsoft Account? Respondida
1 voto
2 comentarios
I see a lot of issues here being blamed on using a Google account so figured it would be a good idea to switch over to my MS account whilst upgrading my phone. When I log out of my Google account in the app, it wipes all my data so I can't log in and sync with my MS account. There's an option to export my data which I can clean up using a json editor but no option to import it back in.
I switched over to SwiftKey from Swype (which I'd been using on my Symbian phone) a decade ago and being a Brit company I've been evangelical with my support for the app over the years. It has always managed to stay ahead of or at least keep up with the curve. However, over the last couple of years, it is increasingly playing catchup. I only notice the gap when upgrading my phone and having to temporarily use Gboard or Samsung Keyboard. With all the data you have collated and MS's AI knowledge hopefully you can shake off the cobwebs and get back on track or maybe next time, we'll stick with the default keyboard. Oh, the irony! -
Keypress Vibration suddenly stopped working Respondida

The keypress vibration for SwiftKey Beta 7.6.1.2 on my Samsung Galaxy S10 stopped working out of nowhere, and my phone doesn't vibrate when I press a key.
Here's what I tried:
* Enabling system vibration on the SwiftKey settings.
* Disabling system vibration and setting a custom vibration (my phone vibrates when setting the vibration duration slider, but not when pressing keys).
* Rebooting the phone.
* Clearing all cache and data from SwiftKey.
So far nothing worked, and my keyboard is vibrationless.

SwiftKey does not respect autocapitalize attribute in HTML input tag Respondida

2 comentarios
SwiftKey does not automatically turn off the capitalization on HTML input tags which feature autocapitalize=off. That is very annoying, many web apps use this to prevent unwanted automatic capitalization on certain inputs. SwiftKey ignores this.
See https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2015/04/autocapitalize for details.

Brand new to SK! In fact, to my delight, I discovered it only 30 minutes ago! It works flawlessly on my iPhone.
However, at the shortest pause, the mic turns off on my Android tablet. Annoying. So, what am I missing?

Microphone, for speech to text Respondida

Suddenly, when I'm using the microphone for speech to text, SwiftKey is inserting periods where I do not want them. Can insert it automatically when I pause? For even a second. . Does everyone see this? ? Like it put a? In it for me. And it's putting a men in places where I don't want them. This is how it looks when I speak. -
Finally got my voice to text back but now Google is interfering. HELP! Respondida

Hello
After my microphone quit working I spent three hours messing around and finally got it somewhat back. Seems that "Google Voice Typing" was toggled on and interfering with SwiftKey. After I turned that off it seems to work but now I have another problem. Now I'm seeing this screen (See attached) that I've never seen before that has to do with Google and it's giving me suggestions but it's causing another issue. It's creating one more step before I can send a text and more importantly...it also doesn't listen as long before and it quits recording.so I find myself having to erase the text and start it over again. It used to give me the option to continue
my existing text. Do you know if this has anything to do with SwiftKey or with Google
Thank you in advance for any suggestions

I'm running andriod 10 on a Pixel 3 and voice to text has become more and more erratic. It's always had seemingly random capitalization and now, as of the past few days, random punctuation. Getting to the point of being unusable? Anyone experiencing these problems?

New toolbar introduced, how can I hide or disable it? (2020) Respondida
5 votos
8 comentarios
A new toolbar with many new features has been introduced (https://9to5google.com/2018/03/15/swiftkey-update-toolbar-stickers/). However I don't need it and it disrupts my workflow (buttons present in the text input, like Telegram stickers, are now 1 row more distant from text input).
How can I disable it?
Update:
Thanks for the answers and the interest.
Solution:
You can disable it by pressing the button on the left of all the words prediction, the one that you see in the picture, and it will be hidden. -
Emoji android 10 not updated Respondida

SwiftKey is absurd at this point. It's been like 3 months since I got android 10 on my note 10. Have contacted support and communicated with them about the issue. It has still not been fixed. Emojis have no been updated for SwiftKey in Android 10. It says that it uses whatever emojis are available on the device, yet it's stuck still only using the android 9 emojis. Every other keyboard I have on my device uses the new emojis just fine. So they clearly can't figure it out. Support is absolutely useless on here. -

1) Long press duration change. 2) Can the question mark be swapped with the / in the long press m position? It's used very frequently, and a faster shortcut would be ideal. -

Hi all, Since updating to Android 10, a little gray area of about half a cm appeared under my keyboard. I'm using my Op6 with the gesture control, others control options don't have this problem. It has totally messed up my typing abilities, because every key is moved slightly up. Wondering if this could be fixed. Thanks :) -
How to get rid of new input method choice button / empty space Respondida

I do't know for what reason, but my android keyboard suddenly had an extra row at the bottom. Contained within it is an input selection button (bottom left), a massive blank space(waste of space) and a keyboard off down-arrow (right). I would like to remove this row but cant find an option. I even uninstalled reinstalled the app and it's still there so presume it appeared as part of an update. It makes typing harder due to having to reach over the empty space. Picture below.
Please advise!

Is there a way to turn off swipe entry and gesture navigation? Also, can the keyboard enter typed input without any physical contact. That's creepy. All of these are very annoying and will mean that I can no longer use the smartphone if Google forces these changes these radical UI changes on me! Please I need it for emergencies. It already took me over 20 m minutes to make this post. I'm desperate! -
Dedicated 'Ç' key on pt-PT keyboard Respondida

Will it be possible to add the "Ç" key next to the "L" key?
See more at Wikipédia link:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portuguese_keyboard_layout
As a suggestion, after selecting a previously typed word, it could be possible using the Shift key, for example by selecting the word "time" and using the Shift key once the word gets the first capital letter "Time". When you press the Shift key again, the letters are all uppercase, "TIME".
