[Feature Request] Remove the period next to the space bar
I have been using SwiftKey since I first switched to Android about five years ago I do believe the SwiftKey is the best keyboard for Android. One problem I always have had is I constantly go to hit the spacebar and I enter a "." {period} I believe it would be great if I could make the space bar either larger or remove the punctuation key next to the space bar all together. It seems no matter how hard I try if I am typing fast I can't seem to hit that space bar without hitting the period at least once every 25 words. It would be great if even there were certain skins that maybe changed the size of the space bar or remove certain keys. All the other keys I hit by mistake autocorrect takes care of. I still believe screen responsiveness is a lot better on iOS than Android so I don't believe this is really a SwiftKey issue or my typing but SwiftKey does help the shortcomings of this android app issue.
Yes,I also got fed up of the swift key team consistently ignoring this.
I no longer use it (notice the lack of stupid periods in my typing.)
I'm surprised Swift key is willing to lose business over this.
I wish there was an option to move the punctuation away from the keyboard. Nothing more annoying and frustrating than hitting the period after every dang word!!!!
THIS IS STILL NOT FIXED. FIX IT.
OR . ELSE. I TYPE LIKE. THIS
Please make removing the period an option at least. I really want to start using Swiftkey again since it superior in many ways to other keyboards, but I can't until with the period located where it is. It's beyond frustrating, and could be easily addressed.
I support this as well! Widen the space bar. I keep hitting the period inadvertently (of which I will leave every accidental period in my post on purpose.) changing the size only. Makes the keys taller, not wider. Plus in the new Android OS on Pixel 3, the home button is gone and swiping near the space bar causes the apps to change.
Please listen to the user community. Please give us the option to remove ht period key if we want. This is obviously an issue for a lot of people , me included. It is so frustrating having to go back through all my messages and remove the period all the time.
I've had the same issue since switching to an iPhone 11. Constantly.hitting.a.period. It seems to happen frequently when using the default Nickel X theme where the buttons have borders. I've since switched to the Zig Zag theme (no borders on any of the buttons) and the problem has basically gone away. I haven't accidentally hit the period in more than a week. Seeing as Swiftkey is incapable or unwilling to resolve this issue on their end, this might be a solution for some.
