With Android Nougat, the Theme Store is no more available.

SwiftKey Beta 6.6.0.19

Android 7.1.2

On my Mobile with Lollipop, it isn't an issue.

I have de-/ install the Application several times, the Beta and the official released version. I have delete the cache and Data of the app. I have give the app all permissions, which I can, I have disabled and enabled the account.... No way to reached the store to select add Themes. There are only the few themes available and visible which are coming during install.

The app will not download any previews or something more....

If I create an backup via Titan on my mobile and restore this one on my Tablet, I can select the restored Themes on the button (replaced the keyboard keys) but the store by himself doesn't work.

The apk is registered and the Accound ID is still available in the settings. The account is still aktiv.

Short form:

Lollipop works fine with the official and beta version

In Nougat it looks like, that the Theme Store isn't reached (or some internal paths are no more valid)

How do I get all the punctuation behind the keyboard?

I used to have it like the first image here

But after reinstalling, I have it like the second image.

Thanks in advance

How can I see (and access) the hamburger menu in password fields?

In password fields, there are no predictions, so the top-line of SwiftKey is missing. Consequently, there is no hamburger menu.

Why do I want to do this? Because I would like to copy-paste a very long and complicated password (yes, I know, that's unsecure) from my password manager into an entry field in which the OS paste function is for whatever reason not working.

Is there a way to delete specific words from the SwiftKey vocabulary without deleting the entire vocabulary?

I want to use emoji :p when I long press p, please add this function

When I go to enter a URL or search in Adblock browser, and type the first letter, "a" for example, it automatically spells out "arstechnica.com" and won't allow me to write over that choice. If I try to delete it and start over it just happens again. I need to type a word and a space, then delete the auto filled stuff. This is infuriating! Doesn't happen with Samsung keyboard, only SwiftKey.

Please advise how to remove the colorful trail that follows your finger each time you swipe. It's very distracting! Can that be cleared?

Ellipsis character does not appear in QWERTY US keyboard? How to type an ellipsis? How to enter any Unicode character?

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 "?"

I'm thinking about switching from my Android to an iPhone. I have purchased the swiftkey app. Was wondering can I transfer everything over to the iPhone. My account and cloud predictions, all of it. Without having to buy swiftkey again. And start over with the keyboard learning my vocabulary?

Since a few weeks Swiftkey applies no space after typing a word, therefore I get got suggestions either. But if i manually press the space button, I'll get the suggestions. Very annoying...

This problem is everywhere; SMS, Whatsup, email etc

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S7

Swiping left to delete gesture isn't triggering consistently (I'm getting 3/10 successful gestures).

I'm observing this using a Pixel 5 with SwiftKey 7.6.6.11 (tried the beta as well which had the same problem too). Also been able to reproduce this in a Pixel 3a and Xiaomi Poco X3.

Since the latest version the center number pad is missing and the keys seem smaller. Does anyone know how to find the previous version to download?

Support responded with generic, check the faq check the forum email so I'm not sure if they are aware or ignoring 

Hi,

Swiftkey on my previous phone worked well but since switching to a new phone, brackets show up in the opposite direction when I try to type in RTL languages.
Furthermore, a space is automatically added after one type of bracket and deleted before the next which makes the whole affair even more complicated and prevents comfortable use of these languages.

Adding more languages without allowing them to be used properly is not beneficial.

An update restoring the original functionality would be appreciated.

Seriously considering a change of keyboard otherwise.

Thanks,

Inbar

Why this function disappeared from Swift Key ? Howo to personalize my keyboard ?

Hi,

when entering an email address with Swiftkey, there's the key with the @-sign to the right of the space bar. When doing a long press, it offers a list of domain names (for me "@yahoo.com", "@hotmail.com" and "@gmail.com") for quick fill. Is there any way to edit this list? I would love to add a few entries to this list.

Best regards,

Daniel

Hi there,

I'm somewhat new to SwiftKey, as I have used Swype in the past. Even after it has been discontinued, it stayed on my old phone until now. Now, with a new Galaxy S10 (running Android 9), I tried the newest version of SwiftKey from the Play Store, but I feel like I'm missing out on how to use/find basic features, so I have to ask for a little help. :)

So, what I'm looking for:

• How can I increase the number of word suggestions from my swiping? I type in different languages simultaneously, so having only three suggestions means that I have to delete the word that I just swiped and swipe it again if the word I intentioned wasn't suggested (as there are more words available that I could have meant). Having more options to choose from (by scrolling the suggestion/prediction bar), makes the workflow a lot better and quicker.
• How can I capitalize a word that I just typed, especially when it's not in the dictionary yet? Currently, I have to go the text, go delete the first character, use the shift key, type the first character again. Again, that's bad workflow, so I'm looking for the key/shortcut/gesture to just capitalize the current/last word.
• How can I extend the current word? Say, I want to write "SwiftKey" but the keyboard doesn't know the word yet. Right now, I have to swipe both words, resulting in "swift" and "key". Now I have to capitalize both words (or press the shift key beforehand), go back to the text, delete the space inbetween them, put the cursor at the end of the text and continue. Again, really bad workflow. How can I, after swiping "Swift" make sure that the word gets extended by the next word I swipe?
• Bonus question: Are there keyboard shortcuts for selecting the current word, all text (ctrl-a, basically) as well as copy, cut and paste or navigating through the text via cursors?

Thanks in advance for your help, everyone! :)

Edit: Uh, also: How to write German and English quotation marks instead of inch signs? How to write a long dash? (QWERTZ extended)

Hello all.

سبحان الله وبحمده

Thanks.

Bonjour,
Sous Android Pie version 9.1, le clavier SwiftKey ne semble pas utiliser le "dictionnaire personnel" définit dans :
paramètres/langue et saisie/avancée/dictionnaire personnel

Si des abréviations sont définies dans ce dictionnaire, ces abréviations sont proposées quand le raccourci est saisi avec le clavier "Gboard" mais pas avec le clavier "SwiftKey"

Pouvez-vous me dire pourquoi ? Est un bug ou une fonctionnalité non supportée ?

Merci pour votre aide

Clipboard shouldn't get auto erazed until I do it manually...
And kindly introduce command for easy copy/cut/paste such as windows command...

When I tried to move this app in external SD card it repeatedly shows the error swiftkey beta unfortunately stopped..
I uninstalled this app till next stable version release...
Please fix it as soon as possible..

My device is HTC running Android marshmallows.

I'm not able to switch from one language to the other, and you always do the auto correct in the wrong language when both languages are turned on.
