Microsoft SwiftKey Android Support Forums

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
The feature that I find the most annoying, and would like the option to turn off, is the auto move of the cursor to the end of the word. When I want to insert/correct a character, I press on the location within the word, and the cursor moves to the end of the word! I have all the arrow keys displayed at the bottom of the keyboard, so pressing on the location & adjusting with the arrow keys is super fast. Except the cursor jumps to the end of the word! I think this feature was added a couple of years ago. It still gets in the way. I haven't found a fast workaround, so an option to turn it off would be much appreciated.

When I attempt to insert a GIF in a text message from the SwiftKey keyboard, it only inserts a URL to the GIF, not the GIF. This started happening after the latest big update (couple days now).

Hello, I was wondering if SwiftKey has a keyboard that is strictly a strike-through English alphabet, as in swiping the space bar gives a full swiping qwerty keyboard. I haven't had much luck searching for keyboards with this feature but SwiftKey is so comprehensive I thought I may not be looking in the right place. Thanks in advance!

How can I disable the multilingual prediction feature (bug).

It is unwanted, uncalled fore, unnecessary, useless, counterproductive, counter-intuitive, and annoying.

Otherwise your app is awesome, until the next update (which hopefully will get rid of this feature) I will be switching to another keyboard, which is a shame.

I've got a new phone and used the cloud backup feature to migrate Swiftkey to the new phone.

My stats have been copied over, but not my preferences, including the clipboard shortcuts.

Is there any way to fix this?

I'm moving from Android 7 to 8, using Google for the backup storage. 

Thanks.

Why does a space appear before a semicolon?

Whenever I type a word that is not in my dictionary, the app shows me others forms of the word that I might want to add to the dictionary. I just want that list to stop popping on my screen. But I want the auto corrector to be in function. Is this possible?

I am not liking this new theme and how it automatically takes over my custom theme. I've been a big fan of SwiftKey, but this will force me to change keyboards. I absolutely do not like the layout change that happens. Please give an option to change.
Thank you!

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?

How do i set a wallpaper on my keyboard?

Why the keyboard not have undo and redo the text.

Pls if this characters in SwiftKey. Pls let us now about it if not then why?

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

I'm finding SwiftKey incredibly annoying for a few different reasons: firstly because it autocorrects words that are legitimately words (i.e. not nonsense from poor typing); and secondly because it autocorrects when searching from address bar in Google.

These two things are very undesirable behaviours for me and they drive me bonkers.

I don't just want to turn autocorrect off, though, because I do want it to fix up genuine mistakes.

Is there a way to tune the settings so that I can turn off the things I don't want??

O teclado omitiu a tecla Ç, e deveria estar presente no teclado para o padrão de escrita brasileiro ABNT.

Where did the Ç key go?
The keyboard omitted the Ç key, and should be present on the keyboard for the Brazilian ABNT writing pattern.

Is there any way, like on the default iOS keyboard, to add a word, say "yt", which would automatically expand to YouTube?

 I would like to know if it is possible to see my personal dictionary. I want to see all the learned words so that I can delete the ones that don't want. Thank you

 I do not want any suggestions.  please tell me how to remove these? 

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

Is there any shortcut to Switch Between Languages? Every time I have to go to settings to select required Language. Very Lengthy Process.

I see there other posts on these but the *status is closed without any conclusion.*

How important does SwiftKey think is a good idea to sync Clipboard? This often consists of my usernames or passport number, greeting messages to my clients. And after every phone reset or phone device upgrade, I have to redo everything again. I need to take the trouble of copying every clipboard pinned texts to Evernote and then put it in SwiftKey. We are heading into 2020.

How do o change the font style

Okay how do i explain it. So, some of the emojis on my swiftkey keyboard are only male or female. For example ( 🤷) how do i pick the male one?

fyi i can see the male one when someone else is typing it.

Also, there's an option on gboard to pick it. I just don't like the keyboard. I prefer SwiftKey.

I'd love to have a question mark permanently instead of a dot, I swipe to access and I type a lot of 'ml' when I'm in a hurry. Please, I beg you. :)

I'm running andriod 10 on a Pixel 3 and voice to text has become more and more erratic. It's always had seemingly random capitalization and now, as of the past few days, random punctuation. Getting to the point of being unusable? Anyone experiencing these problems?

I downloaded and tried a few themes. I would like to have my favorite themes listed in the "YOURS" tab. However, all the themes I have tried are listed there which makes it very confusing.

Is there a way to remove the unwanted theme in the "YOURS" tab? I have seen in other post that I should uninstall Swiftkey and re-install again. This is not a convenient solution because this will still list all the junk themes from the premium pack and alll free thems I got under my account before the themes were free.

If there is no way, may I suggest a feature?

1) Rename the tab name from "YOURS" to Favorite

2) Add an option to remove a them from the Favorite section.

Thanks in advance

Is there a way to to automatically save the clips on clipboard? The clips get deleted after 1 hour but I don't want them to be deleted. I know pining them will solve the problem but I want a permanent solution so that my copied items can stay in clipboard forever without needing to pin them individually.
