Microsoft SwiftKey Android Support Forums

I really like swiftkey and I've used it for years, but things like this bug me: What possible reason would SwK ask me for access to my location? How is that in any way a benefit to me? Just wondering how they justify such a request. 

Tenho um LG G4 h818p dourado e ao fazer uma digitação, logo fica com zoom na tela toda e as teclas ao digitar não são as correspondentes. A tela nas bordas fica com uma linha laranja. Com o teclado padrão isso não acontece.

I have a LG G4 h818p gold and when typing, it soon gets zoomed in on the whole screen and the keys when typing are not the corresponding ones. The screen at the edges is orange. With the standard keyboard this does not happen.

Whenever I am opening the app it is simply loading till the start up and gradually crashes automatically. This is happening right after my upgrade to Android Oreo from Android Nougat on my Note 8. Can anyone please assist me to get it working again?

Update: The app has been working smoothly once again upon a fresh installation. Thanks for the solution, Alpert : )

I recently changed from iPhone to Samsung, and I think there is a difference:

The . key have # and I think also @ as secondary characters on iPhone, but I can't find it on Android.

Anyone else has seen this?

One day I wanted to uninstall Swiftkey keyboard and since then this app is not being installed after downloading it. Then what should I do? I have tried all the way. Please help me!

How do i set a wallpaper on my keyboard?

As I am typing this on my Swedish phone with the SwiftKey language set to English, I get red squiggles on every word that isn't Swedish. Using the Google keyboard and switching languages doesn't cause any problems, even when using multiple languages in the same textbox.,

Hi!

I have an android.

Why I can't insert GIF into the message?

After the choice of GIF and attempt to send writes: "This photo is inaccessible".

Thanks in advance

On Android version in whatsapp the gif button has replaced the enter/return button. I don't use gifs so this is really really annoying to me.

Is there a way to deactivate it?

Hi,

I've just changed from Windows Phone to Android and installed the Swiftkey keyboard.

On Windows Phone, if I wanted to switch a text or a whole message to upper or lower cases, I just selected all the text or the specific word and pressed the up arrow (that handles upper or lower) and it was converted. I checked that on Android I can convert the word pressing space after it. Can you please add this funcionality to it? It's a better and fast way to do it...

Can someone please help me here? i need to type long 'ā' accented uppercase character in swiftkey. I tried holding the 'A' for a while but that accented character is not present there.

since a few weeks I have the moto g5 and installing the swiftkey app I all over sudden have more than the needed special characters like danish, turkish etc. once I longer press for example the a in order to get the ä

how to I turn off all the not needed variants of a ... like with the "old" mobile moto g2nd gen?

thanks for your help

I switched over to SwiftKey since I could see my text boxes but I'm not use to the current layout of the keyboard. I prefer to have my symbols on the left and my numbers visible without tapping on their own tab. And I like to have my emoji tab right next to my space bar on the left and not have to hold down on enter/send to get them. And way to change that sorta thing on here?

I want to erase the Swiftkey memory that it has learned from my previous typing.  I went to "Delete personalized dictionary backup" and chose it.  The app says that I will "lose personal words and phrases you have tought Swiftky".  However, is still suggests words that I would rather it didn't. How can I do this?   Help please.

I'm sure this can't be done but it would be great if I could only erase certain words from it's memory.

Thanks... Bob

I've installed the latest EmojiOne (3.1) font on my phone, but the Swiftkey emoji don't show the new characters. The google gboard keyboard does include them. What is gboard doing that Swiftkey is not?

As I saw, that Holo is back, I was very happy. But it didn't last for a long time, because SwiftKey requires a login for that. I don't understeand what themes have to do with a login.

Once I purchased the app. Now it's for "free". I think, SwiftKey want to force us to login, so thy can use the keyboard as a keylogger. Everything the user type with this keyboard will be send to servers in a foreign country, where I have no rights and no control over my data.

SwiftKey promise not to steal passwords or credit card data, but who controls this? I don't believe this, because this data is very valuable. Intelligence agency  are surely very interested.

And even if this is true, I don't want, that SwiftKey sells everything I wrote with this keyboard to whoever pays for it.

If you get something for free, you are the product. And I even didn't get the app for free, I purchased it once. So I paid for selling my data.

This is not acceptable!

hi,

I'm old switkey user and I got new phone (s7e) with edge screen. Now I have problem, what on edge  screen is margins. I know, what some user like this feature, but I don't. I have wide screen but I can't use all of them, because margins do not let. Could you make adjustable wide for edge screen and user could decide what he wants "with margins" or "without margins"

I tested full screen wide with "Swype" keyboard and I don't see any problems, what some symbols are on screen edge. Typing with wider keyboard is more comfortable.

I Wonder how i can remove the botton to dot and comma??

I currently do a question mark by:

- press-and-hold on period (bottom right)

- slide over to question mark, then release

I always find it quite awkward. Is there an easier why to do a question mark?

Can I remap question mark to another key maybe?

Ideally I'd like a rapid double-tap of period to produce a question mark

Hi,
Mein Problem ist es, dass ich keine Zeichentasten verschieben kann. Mit meinem alten Handy habe ich einen Buchstaben wie z.B A gedrückt gehalten, und direkt darüber war das ä. Nun ist direkt darüber das @- Zeichen, genau wie an den anderen Vokalen erst andere Zeichen. Kann mir jemand weiterhelfen?

Character shift

My problem is that I can not move any character keys. With my old cell phone, I kept a letter like A, and right above it, was the @ sign, just like the other vowels, other signs. Can anybody help me further?

I don't know why, but when I type an ? Or an !, it add a space after the word I typed. (by exemple hello ! Instead of hello!). It's really annoying.

How can I type the pi symbol while typing in English?  It's kind of important for a math/science teacher.

Thai Original Input is way too narrow! Can your team make it more wide to the edge? There is too much space on both left and right, resulting in mistyping.

Please consider one of our Thai's issue here :(((

I love pretty much all of this app....with one exception. I'm not at all impressed with the accuracy of the flow feature. I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and have always used swipe as my primary input method. Any tips on improving the accuracy?

what is the code for theme FLORAL??

Quiero saber como puedo hacer para quitar la opción de visualizar los emojis en el teclado. Siempre está visible la opción de ingresar a los emojis y me molesta mucho. Gracias

I'm a registered (and happy) Swiftkey user.  I have both Swiftkey and Swiftkey Trial on my Android phone. I need space - can I delete the trial version?

Please tell me where is the INR symbol in the SwiftKey keyboard.

I was wondering if anyone knows if we have any awesome easter themed keyboards available
