Suggestion - Hotkeys like on Galaxy Note 4
RespondidaA feature that I miss from my Galaxy note 4 was that you can long press the numbers and it will insert some text you have saved under that number. I used this a lot in my work to text my clients with various standard messages. It's really useful. I recently tried a Galaxy S8 but it didn't have this feature (called Hotkeys). I know there is a way to replace some short text with along text (text shortcuts), but that's not nearly as easy as just long pressing a number.
I have resisted upgrading my Note 4 mainly because I would miss that feature too much. Is the feature available on the SwiftKey keyboard? I think I read somewhere that the Galaxy Note 4 keyboard was from SwiftKey.
The prediction algorithm for the Note 4 Samsung keyboard was indeed made by SwiftKey. However, the rest of it was made by Samsung. Because of this, SwiftKey does not have the Hotkeys feature.
Currently, the only option available is Shortcuts, which you mentioned. You are more than welcome to submit a Feature Request Ticket so the team can have a closer look.
