Hi,

I have the paid version of SwiftKey keyboard. I just updated to the latest version today (24.03.2017) and noticed that the size of the smallest keyboard layout has been made much larger than what it used to be in the previous versions.

Please let me know if this is a bug which would be fixed very soon. Else, please provide me with the installation file of a previous version so that I can manually install it. Such a big size isn't productive for me because it simply takes up too much screen space. Thanks for your support.

Phone: Samsung Galaxy Note 5 SM-920C, running Android 7.0

With this latest update, 6.5.4.26, running Android 7.0 on Samsung Galaxy s7 Edge, when trying to capitalize one word, it automatically capitalizes the previous word.

Ex:
(How it should be)
That dog is REALLY good.

(How it appears)
That dog IS REALLY good.

Please help.This is horrendously irritating when trying to yell at friends, only trying to emphasize one word. Haha.

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

Qdo dígito tres vezes de forma rápida a tela da um zoom. Como desativar essa função?

In your SwiftKey Bengali letters, one letter pronounced as 'yo' is missing. Hope you will arrange for inclusion of the same promptly with necessary update of your app.

The case switch feature causes multiple words to be capitalized. Typing an initialization while in swipe mode causes the previous word to be capitalized in addition to the intended word. Because swipe auto inserts a space only after the next word is swiped or next letter typed, it is impossible to capitalize the next word only. A workaround is to swipe then [space] then backspace to remove the duplicate, then CAPS CASE. And if auto period insert is also enabled, more gymnastics are required.

Typing the following :
foo(swiped) [CAPSCASE] abc(typed) [CAPS OFF] bar(swiped)
... Results in "FOO ABC bar" instead of "foo ABC bar".

I'm on Android 6, current swiftkey version.

i used to use swiftkey but they seems careless about changing arabic layout thats why now im on gboard. really hated these small buttons

It should be select the characters by default form typing because it will correct all words which is Idon't want to correct them so it gives lot of mistake when I'm chatting

How about adding support for non-breaking space?

Or, is it there already?

Hi. Is there a layout or change that allows this? I do not like the button placement - challenging with big fingers and sharing with comma. Thx

Ived apparently added over 8,000 words to my vocabulary and have granted access to my Gmail and SMS. Yet, words this app should know by now continue to fail to get predicted.

Am I the only one complaining about this?

As it stands right now, the only thing keeping SwiftKey on my phone is the arrow keys, which I've yet to find elsewhere.

If I keep swiping in a word and then deleting the suggested word, please don't keep putting in the exact same word every time; obviously I'm trying to type in a different word from that one being suggested or else I wouldn't have deleted it the last three times! Suggest the nearest alternative. Thanks!

Is there a possibilty to deactivate the Number Block on the keyboard while opening special characters?

i activated the number row and don't need a number block.

I just want to see special characters when i click on the most left button.

I just want Swiftkey to do what I type.

Let's say I want to type: "2.5kg"
Do you know how hard it is to get that 2.5 without needing to delete extra space characters?

Same for (Dutch phrase) "Ik slaap 's avonds en 's nachts"
Why do I need extra typing to get this right? Instead the 's characters get stuck to the word left.

Swiftkey should have a "do what client types, don't get creative" mode.

Many greetings from Brussels.

Has anyone had an issue of the left prediction bar showing a correctly spelled word, but with a 6 added to the end of it?  It has happened to me for almost a year and I finally got fed up and decided to ask. It started on my previous HTC and has carried over to my S7.  I tell it to forget the words often, but it just keeps happening.  At least a couple times a day.  It's always a "6", never any other number. 

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 all,
Is there any way to prioritize language as i often type Malaysia instaallah English.
Often i disable english and only enable it When I wanted to type in english.
Thanks.

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

Hi,

I use 2 languages, and it is annoying when after i type a few letters and realize i am not at the language i need, i switch the language and those not yet confirmed type letters on prediction bar are gone missing.  Some other keyboards app will keep the unconfirmed typed letters when switching language and come out with new suggestion words rather than clearing them.

Apart form that, I would like to say big THANKS to SwiftKey team who finally responded to my feature request few weeks ago to add Fuzzy Pinyin support (Swiftkey Beta).  Could be the implementation stage is already at the corner when i requested, whatever it is i am so happy to have this important feature added.  This make SwiftKey to near perfect above the rest.

I want to suggest two certain changes in the japanese keyboard: The first and more important is the autocorrection bar. When you type a lot of time, sometimes the katakana will be gone, it will disappear, and you need to put katakana one by one, and it is very uncomfortable. My suggestion is to put the katakana first in the bar(and, if there is a kanji, after the kanji), because it will be easier to input it.
And the second one is only a visual change. Someone who used other apps and used a japanese keyboard surely saw a 9 buttons keyboard. Some other apps like Go Keyboard, or even the system keyboard for Windows Phone have it, and I love it, because you can put little イ without typing フィ, or something like that.
If this is the wrong place to post it, then, where I can suggest it?

I've been using Swiftkey for as long as I can remember and really like the app. But when I switched to the Oneplus 3T recently I noticed some lag when swiping the "period"-button to make either a questionmark or an exclamation mark. I've tried both the beta app and the regular one and both are the same. Does anyone notice the same thing? It works fine with all my other phones.

It's not a terrible lag, but still noticable and pretty annyoing.

Any tips for me?

I found this link https://vip.swiftkey.com/index.php?/topic/16888-swiftkey-lagging-update-64478-needs-more-info/#comment-87491 but couldn't find any more. That's the exact same issue as I have.

Hey,
Its been a long time since I have been using SwiftKey keyboard. There are numerous personalised predictions which my keyboard gives to me and i love using them, it takes my typing experience awesome. The problem now is that I have just changed my phone and in my new phone in SwiftKey, since I have started using it a day or two, there are a very low number of personalised predictions. So, is there any way by which i can copy predictions from my previous phone to the new one.? Signing in with the same account and backing up from the previous one isn't working out. Please somebody help me. I'm missing my SwiftKey typing!

Currently voice input can only be accessed by long pressing , button.

We want a dedicated voice input on the keyboard somewhere beside word predictions or somewhere else.
