Microsoft SwiftKey Android Support Forums

Hello, I have the problem in google sheets for example that the toolbar isn't showing and icon to open it also is missing, so that I can't use the clipboard. I need to type anything, then exit the cell and go back to it to get it shown. On some forms, often passwords, it's impossible to get it shown on any way. Is there a fix for that? Or can you add a shortcut on the keyboard to open the taskbar? Thank you Device make and model: Xiaomi Mi 9 Device Android version: 11 Current SwiftKey version: 7.8.7.8 Steps to reproduce: Open Google Sheets and open any cell - keyboard opens but toolbar is missing when it's empty. Or Xing login password field.

What does this setting "Show popup keys while typing on the keyboard" do?

As the title suggests, there is a lack in foldable phone support in the sense that competing keyboards like gboard are able to accommodate. Switching to split keyboard once the device is open would make SwiftKey so much more convenient. Foldable markets are growing. Hopefully SwiftKey keeps up. 

As the title says, SwiftKey is probably the best keyboard on Android and the fact that it doesn't support one layout for a small screen and another layout for a bigger/main screen is jarring. There aren't really any good alternatives out there and the foldable part of the SwiftKey community would benefit greatly from this addition. Heck, even Microsoft with their Duo series should have already thought about this problem for their users.

So I am obviously from Hungary and try to use Hungarian spell correction and it is ok for 5 to 10 percent of the time. Mostly it corrects the word to a less likely useful or used word. It makes me confusing because MS Office Word has a fantastic Hungarian spell correction database which is also Microsoft so why they don't apply it or use it for this?

Thanks!

On my Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Thumb Mode only works in portrait mode. It would be great if thumb mode was also available for landscape mode as well. The only modes other than the full width that works is one handed mode and float mode.

Hi there!

Is there anything I can do to add more than 5 languages? While I can add more to my list, I cannot activate more than 5 at any given time.
It is also quite a nuisance that you cannot instruct SwiftKey to restrict suggestions to a single language. If languages share the same fundamental layout principles, auto suggestions (auto-correct) will consider several languages at once which can make life quite hard.
For instance, German, French, English (UK) and Dutch will be "running" simultaneously, sometimes producing ridiculous suggestions.

Cheers,

So Microsoft did something really great: they allowed certain apps like Bitwarden to insert text into the keyboard. (See my previous post about SwiftKey). Bitwarden now inserts my randomly generated passwords into login forms, which is amazing. I only have to select the Bitwarden logo under the text prediction menu in SwiftKey and voila. The same applies to To-Do: just select the To-Do logo in the prediction menu and you can choose which task to insert. But one thing that I noticed is that the widget disappears after you have pressed the widget logo and inserted a string of text. This is not a problem in general, but if you have selected the wrong item from a widget (i.e. the wrong password from Bitwarden or the wrong To-Do task) and then go back to delete the pasted text data from the login form, you then will not get to see the widget pop up in the prediction menu. It does not appear a second time or ever. Even if the field is empty again. So you spilled your first chance. It has disappeared, even if you need it a second time. That's why I would like to suggest a new feature for widgets. Situation: The user takes the cursor off the text field (outside the form) to scroll down or click somewhere else and returns to the form again. They then click/tap inside the same text field again. (Maybe to add something more or re-enter a different text string). Suggestion: Show the widget again. Make the widget active in the prediction field if the cursor dissappears from the field (field is inactive so to speak) but then reappears on the same field (field is active now). What SwiftKey does right now: it only gives you the option to insert text from a widget like To Do or Bitwarden the first time. So even if you delete the whole entry in the form field, press outside of the field and then back inside, it does not bring up the insertion option from To-Do or Bitwarden. Why not let SwiftKey behave the same way every time the user enters or activates a text field?

So instead of having to reload the page so SwiftKey reloads its Bitwarden/To Do widgets in the prediction menu: make SwiftKey even smarter.

 I have been using swiftkey for awhile and the other day while using it to swype the letters randomly changed. The "W" and the "Z" switched places on the keyboard. I can not figure out how to get this changed back. This happened once before and I had to delete it and re-install. 

This happens with both the Released version and beta version. I use beta, and it is version 8.10.28.4. This only happens when you are in Book mode, aka two screens.

When you have the keyboard open, and you then open settings. This is what happens.

Settings opens on the opposite screen

If you attempt to swipe the settings window up, so that you can next swipe it off the screen to close, this will not work. The Settings window will remain whatever size it was left, you can interact with it, and the screen behind. But you must turn the screens off, wait a few seconds then turn back on to be able to remove the settings application. Sometimes, SurfaceQuickStep will stop responding.

Hello,

I would like to report crashes ocurring on my phone.

This happens in apps, if you tap to some input, the keyboard just won't show up. Tapping elsewhere and focusing other input also does not work, same as closing the other app and reopening, when this happens, the keyboard just won't show up anywhere in the system. The only thing working is going to SwiftKey app info, force-stopping the app and then starting the keyboard from the app drawer.

For me, it happens a lot in Slack application. Right now, I don't recall other app crashing it, but that also means I cannot say if other app does it or not.

Phone: Vivo V2050 (also marked as V21 5G)

Android: Android 12 with April security update

Keyboard: SwiftKey beta 8.10.15.2

Log: would like to attach, don't seet he option here on mobile though.

Thank you! 

How can I transfer my previous phone's clipboard to my new phone? Why didn't it bring my clipboard over even though I'm logged into my Swiftkey account, have everything downloaded, and have "sync" set? Even so, is this possible?
