Emoji search (as in Gboard)
It would be quite useful, if there were a way to search for emojis, when the Emoji button has been pressed.
It should be kind of like how Gboard does it, where you switch to Emoji mode and then you can search (eg. you type "cat" and see the cat emoji 🐈).
This is a feature request for the SwitfKey Android keyboard; I cannot use Swiftmoji, as it is english only and not available in Switzerland.

Hello,
We currently do not have the search for emoji, but we support emoji prediction. It works pretty much the same as "typing 'cat' to get the emoji of 'cat'".
Can you try it?

This works nicely but it would be even better if the emoji that comes up is not quite what you want, the emoji key would bring up the section of the emojis that are close. Right now it brings up the last section you were looking at.

And now, type "mouse" ..
You will see that emoji prediction shows ONLY a computer mouse !
What if :
- I was speaking of the animal mouse instead ?
- I want to choose among the 2 animal mouse emojis ?
- I want to write the word mouse AND + its emoji? (currently the emoji replace the word)
Moreover, there is a search option for GIF, why not for emoji?
While prediction is nice, it does not replace emoji search. For example, there are 5 cat emojis, but prediction will only show you one of them. There is no easy way to get the other 4.
I agree with the rest here. I wish Swiftkey had a search for emoji. I think it's needed, especially if you want to compete with Gboard. I find myself switching back and forth from Swiftkey to Gboard just to search for an emoji.
Can you follow the instructions here and submit a request to the team?
Thanks

I can't imagine why SwiftKey cannot bring emoji search?
URL are not available?
This is being asked for more than 2 years. Wow keep it up. You will soon be able to become a history.
Wow, this request still hasn't been addressed? Sad... Back to gBoard.
Wake up SwiftKey!
Gboard it is..
I was shocked when I discovered SwiftKey doesn't have this feature. It's a significant oversight and something that is invaluable in Gboard. Slowly but surely, Gboard is leaving SwiftKey behind. Even their text predictions are almost on par. Unless SwiftKey start innovating they will end up being a has been. Gboard has pretty much over taken SwiftKey as the defacto keyboard of choice and this is because Google are not resting on their laurels. It seems SwiftKey is doing just that. I don't want emoji predictions when I type. That's pointless. I do; however, want to decide when I want to find an emoji to punctuate my text. I'm sure this will be true for most people. Swiftly, get your finger out!
Any day now, SwiftKey, any day. Right?! 🤔
This is the reason I cannot switch to SwiftKey
