Microsoft SwiftKey iOS Support Forums

 Hello, I am french, I just upgraded from an Android Smartphone to an iPhone SE 2020 iOS 12, but I cannot configure my Swiftkey keyboard to display the special characters above each alphabetical letter like I did on Android. . I know that special characters are also accessible by pressing the "123" key then the "+ = #" key if I want to use the underscore "_" for example but it's really not practical, whereas on my Android Swiftkey keyboard, I just have to stay and press the "W" key to make the underscore "_"! Can you help me configure my Swiftkey keyboard on my iPhone SE 2020 iOS 12 as on my Android please. I'm placing a screenshot of my Android Swiftkey keyboard where the special characters above the letters I want to appear on my iPhone Swiftkey keyboard are outlined in red.

Thank you.

Ever since my XS max update to iOS 13, the keyboard default won't stay constant.  I've moved the top keyboard around within Settings General Keyboards, but SwiftKey at the top typically will not come up as default.  Worked fine prior to the iOS updates.  Not sure what to do.

Have a bit of a weird case. I got a new iPhone XR today with iOS 13.1.2. I transferred SwiftKey from my iPhone 7 Plus (also running iOS 13.1.2) and was unable to configure SwiftKey. Tried to re-install the app and then when I went through the initial setup, the SwiftKey settings page listed SwiftKey ${MARKETING_VERSION} instead of the keyboard settings. Apparently that's a placeholder value in Xcode. Any suggestions on how I could go back to a decent typing experience? The app still works fine on my old phone but I wouldn't dare re-configuring it.

We came upon non 3D Touch devices as Apple has completely abandoned the technology, bringing haptic feedback. On devices with small screens, such as the iPhone, is easier to handle the lack of cursor control (although iOS native keyboard does the trick very nicely), but it is terrible on the iPad. SwiftKey is, hands down, the smartest keyboard there is - and it's exactly why it is so hard to understand why they didn't come up with a solution.

I use the accessibility shortcut on ios quite often as I have an iPhone XR and the screen is too large to operate one-handed so I have the button placed around the middle of the right edge. Problem is, when swiftkey opens up, it pages the button to the bottom center of the screen making me have to constantly place it back which gets frustrating. This has not happened with the stock keyboard.

I like the Telugu keyboard a lot in Android. I would appreciate if it can be made available for IOS also

I just noticed today that while I was responding to some posts on Facebook that the automatic space after words want working. I was confused but here, they are working. I just went to test again and it's working when I created a new post as well as responding. I know that a random instance or two isn't helpful and especially since I can't seem to reproduce it again but maybe just mentioning it might be useful if a new trend shows up.

IPhone 6s
iOS 12.1

Period is way way way too easy to press.

I want to know how can I get the old Emojis back with the Red Roses I don't like the pink hearts 💕

Why is swift key keyboard so limited on ioscompared to android?

I love SwiftKey and have used it for years. However I hate the new Toolbar feature because it now means the three predictive word suggestions become truncated and not fully visible due to the space taken up by the + symbol. For example a suggestion of 'appear' shows up as 'A...ear'. This is pretty pointless given these words are supposed to be suggestions but can't actually be read. Previously if a long word was predicted / suggested then the font would just be reduced to fit into the space which was great but now it's just useless.

Anyone know of a way to disable the Toolbar? If not can SwiftKey look at making this new feature an option rather than a mandated feature?

I've never got it to work in native ios mail app. I have used in ios version 11 upwards, including all patches from Apple and SwiftKey.

I only have one keyboard installed.

Steps:

1. Open YouTube app

2. Go to a video

3. Tap "Add a public comment..."

Actual: SwiftKey keyboard freezes then crashes, default iOS keyboard replaces it after a while

Expected: no crash, can type as normal

SwiftKey version:

2.2.0

iOS version:

11.1.1

Device:

iPhone 7 Plus

Since a few updates SwiftKey started to flicker, i.e. when I pick the text input area in an app (doesn't matter which one, same behaviour all across the board) SwiftKey shows up, quickly vanishes and then shows up again. If I start typing before it vanishes nothing happens until it reappears. That's annoying, but I can stand it if it weren't for..

Sometimes SwiftKey doesn't reappear, but the standard iOS keyboard. So I have to manually switch keyboard again.

Quite annoying, frankly. A fix, please?

Since the newest Update I can't use the SwiftKey keyboard on YouTube it's bugging. My device is iPhone 8 plus

Hi there since the newest update on my iPhone 8 plus your keyboard isn't working on YouTube anymore. Everytime it will open me the normal keyboard and if I choose SwiftKey it doesn't appears and is bugging

I use Marathi keyboard on my Sony Android phone. It’s wonderful.

But I feel very sorry that my iPAD, on which I write too much in Marathi, is not so supported. 

May I know when this facility would be made available for iOS? 

Update - submitted through Feature Request option, please disregard.

I use two languages on my keyboard, and English is used much more frequently. It would be very handy if I could turn flow off for my second language as my keyboard often assumes I'm using flow for this language after using shorthand/single letter words like "u", "a" or "I". Since it's a second language, I'm mostly comfortable with using the keyboard without flow anyway. I would assume others may also have this issue?

Hi all

Do you know where is the degree ° symbol ? 

Cannot find it... 

Thanks for your help

Hello everyone! I just updated SwiftKey and unfortunately, it stopped working completely. The keyboard crashes on start everytime. I'm on iOS 10.3.3 and iPhone 7 Plus

Whenever I text message the cursor bar doesn't show, but it does row in every other application, such as email or Facebook etc, except text messaging.

Why there is no bangla language

Can you please add the Albanian language for iOS devices? It has been available in Android for a long time, and I'm really missing it on iPhone.

Thanks

SwiftKey 2.0.2
iOS 10.3.2
iPhone 7

Longtime Android user just started using SwiftKey for iOS. Spaces are not being automatically added at end-of-sentence punctuation. I searched the forums and found this is not expected behavior for iOS.

Any time I add punctuation (. , ? ! etc), I have to manually space. Is there an option for this? I don't see it in the app settings or keyboard settings.

 Ever since I updated my iPhone 7, when I'm typing text (only after something else happens on my phone - like it times out) I'm not able to swype down to reveal the text.  The back arrow is barely visible, but I know where it's supposed to be and have to go out and come back in to see text again.  If I switch to the Apple keyboard, it looks fine.  HELP!!!

With the new update I cannot find how to switch between my other keyboards. Help please.
