Microsoft SwiftKey Android Support Forums

Hi! I find the New square "full keyboard" button when in compact Mode bothering. I only use compact because I love to use my phone with one hand and with the button I keep making the keyboard complete all the time. Could you Make it optional in order to remove it? Thanks

Can you color the keys on the keyboard and have a theme when you customize your own?

For users that switch between languages a lot with Google Voice Typing, there is a wide feeling that automatic language recognition doesn't work properly, as shown by these discussions:

1. Android Central: SwiftKeys and Google Voice Recognition
2. Stack Exchange: Disable Google Voice Typing Automatic Language Detection

For us, this makes Google Voice Typing unusable on Swiftkeys. We speak English, it types French or Spanish. We speak English, it types Spanish.

For this reason, many people are asking for a key on the keyboard to let us manually set the language. Because we change languages often, this needs to happen on the keyboard, not inside Google Voice Typing settings, which would not work anyway (every time we switch languages, we'd have to uninstall other languages).

This can be an Advanced Setting to "Add key to manually set input language". To be usable, this key should NOT give us a huge list of languages, but just our "favorite languages", which are the ones installed in Google Voice Typing.

Please note that the Google Voice Typing API allows the developer to do that:

• In Reverso, depending on the direction of the translation (e.g. English to Spanish), Google Voice Typing opens with the correct language pre-selected.
• There are some keyboards that use Google Voice Typing and let you set the language manually (one of several SpeechKeys).

I, for one, would be willing to pay for a keyboard that provided some advanced features to give us greater control.

Following a security reboot on Moto 5X, the Keyboard is now covering 66% of the screen when on the 'Smallest' setting. Please help?

I have applied two step verification in WhatsApp. This app randomly prompts for password. One day it prompts and SwiftKey keyboard giving me suggestions for the password. One of the suggestion was the exact matched password. Please confirm is this yours security glitch or from WhatsApp. I am using Huawei Y7 Prime 2018.

SwiftKey keeps switching to the black and red theme with mask and I can't change it back. It happened a few months ago and an update fixed. Now it's started happening again, I change the theme in settings but it doesn't update the keyboard.
I just get the error "sorry that your theme changed, something went wrong on our side. You can change it back. But I can't!

Hello, recently my autocorrect stopped working properly. It works then it stops. For example if I write 'goobyw' it will stay like that and won't change. Or if I say some other words. As I'm typing this, it restarted working. I'm sure it will stop soon. Any way to fix this?

I'm using version 7.2.0.18 and it happens to frequently that an enter is automatically inserted when I type a question mark. Hope you'll look into it

When android phone is set to "force rtl layout" -> I use it since I am left-handed, and have my keyboard set to "compact" "Key pop-ups" are misplaced -> they show at the other side of the screen, e.g. the pop-ups are on the right side of the phone, even though the keyboard itself is on the left side. 

Love the keyboard and would love to continue using it, but the longpress is unusable :(. 

A couple of days ago (so around Jan 3 2019) the Swiftkey clipboard stopped working. Text I copy does not appear as a clipboard entry in Swiftkey, but I can use the Android gesture to paste it normally. It's like Swiftkey doesn't detect when I copy something.

I didn't install or change anything in the last week. I already tried rebooting.

What should I do?

Look abovr. I used to be a nle to type a zillion miles a minute. And have good accuracy. Within the last 6 months or so, it's garbage. Always accepts wrong spelling without inserting the correct. What happened? Paying member bit looking for alternatives. Recommended to so many people in the past, but don't aukore.

 Is it possible to edit my dictionary in order to take out or correct typing errors that were stored? 

At the same time I write correctly (do not judge by this post, English is not my native language). I was looking for a very long time where I could turn it off, I did not find it. Please tell me how to fix it.

For some reason my keyboard keeps changing my correctly spelled words to an incorrect spelling?

I think it is essential that, like other keyboards, you can change if the selected text is in upper or lower case

I am trying to find the shortcut or key to use the degree symbol in Android. The only pertinent answer I can fiind is for iOS which apparently is a long press 0. Any other search sends me off to the new Symbols app. I would have expected it to be on the 123 tab somewhere. I also have a Samsung physical keyboard with my Tab S4 synced with SwiftKey and I can't find it there either.Has anyone else found it?

I don't want the symbols above the letters... Cause when I type a letter the symbols comes up instead of typing a letter

Тут гляжу русских почти нет, но всё-же - надеюсь найдутся и прочтут.

(иноязыкие пусть переводчика нанимают - это их проблемы!)

На моём девайсе, к сожалению, данный софт (SoftKey) был жёстко (в качестве системного)

предустановлен и .... удаление обычным способом - увы не возможно.

А пользоваться жутко неудобной, глюкавой и себе на уме клавой, да ещё не знающей русского языка, но при этом пытающейся меня ему научить ......

Простите, но сие безобразие = ...лядство в самой пошлой его форме и мне - совершенно не приемлемо !

По сему настаиваю и требую - предоставить мне ПОЛНУЮ и ИСЧЕРПЫВАЮЩУЮ информацию о том

 = КАК УДАЛИТЬ (РАЗ И НАВСЕГДА!) данную прогу с моего смарта !?

P.S.

На данный момент, я ЭТИМ не пользуюсь, но .... ОНО обновляется и жрёт мой трафик (без моего на то согласия!).  Жрёт ресурсы ОЗУ и процессора (постоянно запущен процесс).  Занимает место = более 50 Mb.

Мне всё это НЕ НУЖНО !

How to change the size of letters in the keyboard button?

The arabic letters very small in your keyboard

In Samsung keyboard it is big & very good

How to change this letters to be like samsung keyboard?

I get a message from support (Ryan P) saying "We are working on a fix. Please follow this thread for updates." But the thread was zapped. This is in relation to Arabic keyboard users being forced to use Hindu numerals. I also see a lot of posts by "Permanently Deleted Users." I am just wondering what kind of environment is reigning within these forums? As far as I am concerned, I have already removed the keyboard app from my system. So, there is no way of knowing if it was a bug and if/when it is fixed. To go check the thread and find that it was removed is not reassuring.

The key popups won't turn off. I've tried to turn it off in the settings, and it says it's off but it's not. any way to fix this?

Necesito que la fila con la letra A esté en el medio, por favor!

Hello Everyone,

I had to format my xiaomi redmi 4 Mobile. So,i lost all the swift keyboard predictions. I did not back or sync any data. My question is it possible to recover old predictions in swift key board with any recovery app or any other way? Thank you!

Call me boring, but I just like using plain old symbols and not the staggering multitude of options available through SwiftKey. Once upon a time, this app's "recently used" emoji tab allowed me to use :) :-( ;-) and so on without having to search for them every single time. Apparently a recent update has moved these basic options to the far right of the emoji options and the "recent" tab no longer saves those. Is there a way to fix this? At first I thought I could just deal with having to hunt for the ones I like using, but it's actually proving to be much more annoying than I anticipated. Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

Have been looking for a keyboard that has it all and SwiftKey works for me for the most part. But it's kind of annoying how I have to switch to a different keyboard every now and then to enter kaomoji or Japanese emoticons like these - (๑•̀д•́๑)ʅʕ•ᴥ•ʔʃ
Would be really nice if these could be made default or as an add on in the SwiftKey keyboard

Please tell me that I can undo the apparent mandatory switching of place by the Y and Z on the EN/US keyboard....is this some Old MacDonald Trump nonsense? It's a nightmare and I'm trying to wake up.

I received the last windows 10 update today, how can I enable this feature on my android phone? I already set all on Windows. Any idea?

Hi developers, I've tried to send a mail to Stefania Gobbi <stgobbi@microsoft.com> (who followed me with the venetan language) but the mail returned back with an "Message not delivered" error.

How about adding an option to toggle auto space on/off after punctuation.

It's a pain having to backspace to remove an unwanted space.

I use KeePass to manage all of my passwords. This means I need to copy every password into my clipboard before I enter it. Normally, it then clears the clipboard after a few seconds automatically. SwiftKey's nifty clipboard history feature doesn't get cleared though. It's a really cool feature, but I would personally like to have the option to disable it.

I've been using SwiftKey for a long time, and it's definitely my favorite. They've added features I've requested for in the past, and I'm very grateful for that.
