Microsoft SwiftKey Android Support Forums

I updated my app and there is a change I do not like. It used to be that you would long press the enter key to get the Emoji menu.

On pages like Facebook and Reddit, whenever I hit the enter key it immediately brings up the Emojis. I have to long press to hit enter.

It is not doing it here. When I hit enter it enters the new line. It seems to be limited to social media. The only other option I have seen is to have a dedicated Emoji key and then it makes other buttons more narrow and when I go to hit the dedicated comma button, it accidentally hits the dedicated emoji button.

I am fine with not having emojis at all. Is there a way to stop it from doing this on social media? It never did before. I love SwiftKey and I've use it since it was a paid app. I'm not liking this, though.

Hello. I have the new Moto g5 plus which in the digital sensor has the feature to navigate thru left and right swipes on the sensor so i don't need to use the android on-screen buttom to return or anything else. The buttons doesnt even show on screen. But when i use the swiftkey or other keyboard, it creates the bottom buttons making my screen lose some space. How can i use this keyboard without the buttons just like my Samsung note?

I'm new to the app and I like it except for three things. I want to know if it can be fixed.

First, Can I get question mark on the main key board.? Right Now I have to hold on the period button to get it. Even having it in the 23 3 menu like Samsung keyboard would be better.

Second, can we make it not auto space after swipe. My muscle memory likes to tap space between words resulting in this double spacing and it is proving a hard habit to break.

Third, can it be set so that after a swipe if you backspace it erases the whole word. Right now it just backspaces 1 letter. But usually backspace after swipe means the whole word is wrong.

I use Samsung s6 driving 6.0.1. 6.5.4.26 is my SwiftKey version.

Thank you

I have never and will never use options like this but with one particular website I visit several times a day, it constantly pops up. It used to try to take the hint, with an offer to take me into the settings to shut the option off, but doing that never worked and now, it just constantly shows up whenever I go anywhere where there's a form that has to be filled out. What can I do to get rid of this once and for all?

Hello, how can i quit the suggestion bar of numbers and word? Either quit the numbers on the 123 menu but keep the signs? Thanks!

Is there a way to auto change some words to others, as in can I write 'email' and it correct it to 'me@email.com' kind of thing?

Hi. In your next release please include ability to change/customize own colours in the purchased themes.

Hello, dear developers! The system of memorizing frequently entered words, which should offer the same words the next time, does not work correctly. Because it stores in the dictionary not only words but also numbers. I often work with a calculator, where I need to calculate a lot of numbers. And when I need to write a message to someone, among the suggested words shows the same numbers, instead of words. This creates inconvenience. And it seems to me that the volume of the dictionary is very limited and the numbers will replace the words in the base of the keyboard and fill with numbers. Please correct it. Translated by Google

Hi,

I was wondering if there was anyway to switch the "," button with the "." button? Also is there a way I could change the default "." button to be a "?"

Hi guys, I know this may be silly, but whatsapp has just included the fox emoji a few weeks ago, which us awesome (I love foxes) it would be super cool if you guys had a fox emoji. Previously I would always type and the keyboard would predict my emoji, now however, because I use the fox in every text/message, I often go to the actual apps emoji selection instead of the SwiftKey emojis through predictions

instead of the letter m i always hit bspace. any way to resize it or place it somewhere else?

I have speech set to uk. But the keyboard setup is English Australia. So why don't I get a dollar on the keyboard. It's very frustrating to have to type in the word dollar every time. . I don't the stupid £ sign.

Thank you so much for this forum about T9 keyboard for SwiftKey. I hope you'll make it. Much more easy to write with just one hand. Please let me know when you make it. Many people will enjoy it. In Portuguese too. Thank you.

I've been using Swiftkey for 4 years now on two different phones. Previously when I used to type incorrect words in English swiftkey showed the suggestions for the correct spelling. I need that because I've a weak vocabulary and depend on swiftkey for the spellings. But on the other hand, i also type Bengali words in English for communicating with friends. Now i feel that the Bengali words in English are being suggested for incorrect spellings. If i make a mistake in an English word, like "swiming" or "ocupation" i dont see any suggested spellings for the correct word.
I assumed that the English form of Bengali words got stored thus deleting the original English words from the list.

Any kind of assistance regarding this matter will really help me. Thank you.

Is there a way I can have access to all the words that I have typed?
If you let that option available to users I'd be great,

Thank you for your time, hope to hear from you soon about this topic

Best regards

How do I uninstall unwanted keyboards?
Terry.

just in the last couple days, and only (so far) in Facebook, when I type certain words I get a list of associated emojis that pop up automatically. I find this extremely annoying and would love to disable it. I do have the "emoji predictions" toggle  turned off. Please help. Thank you.

Hi,

Is there a way to display numeric keypad with number keys only? For example on my Galaxy S7 Clock app when I want to select say hours or minutes, SwiftKey switches to numeric keyboard, but there heaps of other keys presented which has no meaning when entering numeric values only, like hours in this case.

With all the additional keys numeric keys are quite small.

I read about that before

I like the flow and I like gestures. Gestures have an option to delete by swiping to the left ⬅, and to hide keyboard by sweeping down ⬇, but I'd like to see a feature where we could move pointer, just by sliding our finger on the keyboard.

Hi,
Every time i click the "theme" button, the app telling me i need to update the app to get to the store. I updated it like 3 times and it still doesn't work. Help anyone?
Thanks for the help!

I almost always use the little microphone key to speak the text of my email and text messages, but for the past few days SwiftKey triples what I spoke in ALMOST identical text, with 3 slightly different versions of what I said. This is happening on both my Nexus 6P with Android 7.1.1 and my Samsung Galaxy Tab S with 6.0.1.
I even tried disabling the GBoard app, but no luck.

I am a Neural Alpha user on my Android, and I see that it's no longer being supported.  I'd like to know if all of my keystroke data will be transferred automatically to SwiftKey if I install it?

Thank you.

I'm a beta tester.
You've recently made a change that that reduced the typing efficiency. In the past ,while typing a word, it automatically predicted the next word and entered an automatic space. In order to change the current word, i had to hit the backspace. Now, the keyboard gives me automatic suggestions for the current word and I have to hit the spacebar to get the next suggestion. BTW, it also puts automatically 2 spaces between the words. In addition, It makes the automatic quick period functionality redundant.

Unless I am missing it... The long press needs to show both remove and add words to the dictionary

I have experienced many times a desired word is not learned and not added to the dictionary.

Make it easy for me to add.

One paragraph I will type a word, select the autocorrect desired... Next paragraph, same typing of same word... Is not given as a option to select.

And yes app has been reinstalled.

In landscape mode, spacebar is too small.

I don't need any other keys to be larger except for the spacebar.

Development Team,

I cannot find how I'm supposed to report bugs for SwiftKey Beta anywhere within the app or even anywhere on the website. Please advise as to the preferred method for doing so.

Thanks,
Crashier

Everything I speak into the microphone is being printed out multiple times. What is causing that, and more importantly, how do we fix the problem? Incidentally, I typed this, didn't speak it. Thanks.

Is it possible to have SwiftKey *not* remove the preceding space when an underscore is being inserted?
This issue (along with a few others) was raised as far as December 2014. Unfortunately, it hasn't received attention from the developers.

It's rather frustrating having to go back through typed text to correct things from

"It_should_ be fixed immediately" to "it _should_ be fixed immediately".

Ordinarily it wouldn't be a problem if you could simply backspace and correct it. However, fixing this 'typo' requires a careful placement of the caret (which isn't at all easy) then inserting a space and then moving to the end of the line to continue with the text.
This slows text input especially when writing formatted text on WhatsApp and Telegram, both of which use the underscore for formatting.
