SwiftKey Android Support Forums

I have a Samsung Tab S4 and I really like the DeX mode with the official Samsung Tab S4 keyboard cover, but there's one major drawback. It seems there's nothing I can do to enable SwiftKey when in DeX mode.

As such, I have to rely on the useless Samsung keyboard which doesn't even add a capital letter at the start of sentences.

SwiftKey  works fine when using the Samsung Tab S4 keyboard cover when not in DeX model.

How do I switch on SwiftKey in DeX mode?

On the Windows 10 Mobile keyboard, we had the option to move the cursor easily using a "control" on the keyboard itself. That made typing a lot easier and I think it would be a good buy for SwiftKey

Hi,

when entering an email address with Swiftkey, there's the key with the @-sign to the right of the space bar. When doing a long press, it offers a list of domain names (for me "@yahoo.com", "@hotmail.com" and "@gmail.com") for quick fill. Is there any way to edit this list? I would love to add a few entries to this list.

Best regards,

Daniel

Something has changed in the past few months with the algorithm or the way SwiftKey works because it's not as correct or as intuitive as it used to be.  I constantly get the wrong word with none of the suggestions even close to what I'm swiping.  Then I have to delete the entire word an go slowly to get it to recognize what I'm aiming for.

In addition, it often seems to miss the first letter of the swipe pattern like it doesn't detect I'm swiping until I'm on my way to the second letter of whatever word.  This too results in incorrect suggestions.

Finally, "I'm" gets replaced with "I" automatically all the time even though "I'm" appears for a split second before it's corrected.

Should I try reinstalling or did something change in the way the program/algorithm works?  This is incredibly frustrating.  I think something might be broken.

I am having an issue between SwiftKey and maybe Chrome and News Break app. The issue consists of switching between News Break and Chrome while entering a comment. What happens is the phone reboots.  Hardware is a Samsung Galaxy S8+ running Android Oreo. I am also sending this feedback to Google and SwiftKey developers. 

Software versions:
SwiftKey 7.0.2.14
Chrome 66.0.3359.82
News Break 4.1.6
Android version 8.0.0; SM-G955U Build/R16NW

signature: 3040109_4.1.6_Android8.0.0_SM-G955U

Hi all. I've been using SwiftKey for a veeery long time and it's amazing. I really liked the voice integration but a while back I started to get away from Google products (yes, Android is from Google but you can strip quite a lot of their stuff from it) and I (sadly) discovered that after removing Google Search app the voice dictation stopped working.

SwiftKey is now owned by Microsoft and MS has it's own voice recognition. There is also a Common Voice project from Mozilla (https://voice.mozilla.org/) which should be more open/transparent (though they are only collecting data / training for now).

tl,dr;

Having alternative voice input would be awesome!

Will Microsoft be able to create ITS OWN voice recognition for android swiftkey, which does NOT rely on Google's voice services? Turning on Google's voice also turns on a bunch of other Google stuff many users don't want, launching unwanted apps, and messing up the homescreen. We JUST want voice input for the keyboard! Will MS be able to make that possible in near future for swiftkey android app? This would be a feature MS could promote. Some users are already looking for non-google voice input, and the bulk of users don't realize what google voice services really mean--cluttered screens and resource drain. And advertising, constant attempts to force users into their ad-spaces. PLEASE HELP!!!

This question was previously asked and mistakenly marked answered, but it was NOT answered. Is it possible to get a real answer?

I see there other posts on these but the *status is closed without any conclusion.*

How important does SwiftKey think is a good idea to sync Clipboard? This often consists of my usernames or passport number, greeting messages to my clients. And after every phone reset or phone device upgrade, I have to redo everything again. I need to take the trouble of copying every clipboard pinned texts to Evernote and then put it in SwiftKey. We are heading into 2020.

I am using SwitfKey for a long time, but desperatly want to switch to mostly any other keyboard software, because since years, there are two catastrophic design flaws in the app, which could be solved in minutes of programming time:

1) The optional numeric bar just shows the numbers 1 to 0, and has no second layout... why! Every keyboard on this planet has easy access to ! for example on number key 1, but not SwiftKey

2) For Germany layout, it is catastrophic to access most important keys like ö ä ü ß in SwiftKey. For example: if you hold key u, the default selection is "<" instead of "ü" ... WHY!!! This is the most annoying thing for German customers.

Please change default selection for uoa to üöä.

Give easy and fast access to !?ß. The access through . is a mess and breaks usage flaw on normal keyboards.

Give option to manipulate the key layout and change keys you want to have.

I would like to replace whole messages with shortcuts. I run a home based business so I use certain messages A LOT, so it would be great to just type a short code that expanded to an entire text message. Anyone know how to do this?

I have Panasonic Eluga Ray 700. In our homw, we have 3 phones of the same variant. We couln't update & also log in with each accounts. I tried with microsoft account and also with google. There is no error code displays. But it just failes and stays in the old stage. More than 2 years I have been writing and trying. No hope. I feel, no body could help yet. I have to leave from swiftkey. But I love the app keyboard. That's why trying again and again. Is there any new ways?

I have been using Swiftkey extensively with the Indonesian language for a while now. Unfortunately it is still missing the following basic structure of the Indonesian language:

Genitive / possesive case of noun + pronoun combination as described on this page:

http://langhub.com/en-id/indonesian-grammar/94-Sentence-Structure/

More specifically, from the website example, the contaction of

- "rumah aku" to "rumahku"

- "rumah kamu" to "rumahmu"

- "rumah dia" to "rumahnya"

where "rumah" is the noun and "aku", "kamu", and "dia" are the pronouns

So "rumah" in swiftkey is recognised as a noun, but "rumahku" or "rumahmu" or "rumahnya" are not.

I want to move my vocabulary from a Google account to a Microsoft account. I saw that one can export his account data, but I couldn't find how to import it.

Can it be done?

Thanks

SwiftKey is the best. The only thing I wish I could change was the voice dictation button placement. On big phones it is hard to get to. Give me the option to place on right side if screen (like gboard).

Why the keyboard not have undo and redo the text.

Pls if this characters in SwiftKey. Pls let us now about it if not then why?

Swift key becomes worst one due to it do not have option to on/off auto spacing after punctuation. If I'm typing my mail which includes 3 dots. I want to back space each dot place. Very worst. And irritating. Please include an option to on or off auto spacing after punctuation.
