I really like swiftkey and I've used it for years, but things like this bug me: What possible reason would SwK ask me for access to my location? How is that in any way a benefit to me? Just wondering how they justify such a request. 

On most keyboards when you hold the A button you can find the Æ character in the special characters list, but in Swiftkey it's missing, at least in the italian language

I recently have found that lots of new colours and options are available for this app. I just wish I could fine tune it to my taste. I love the colours that there are but I hate not having borders around my keys, therefore is there any chance that this could become available as an option so we could adjust the layout and look to our own specific taste. Maybe shadows of keys and different text types, even down to the colour of the chars? Just a thought..... But as it stands 9.5/10 for swiftkey for sure...

Hi!
First of all, I'm used to inputting my texts with swype and Samsung stock keyboard, so I was surprised that SwiftKey doesn't offer an option that enables deleting entire words via one short tap on the backspace key after using the "Flow" method. Having to press the backspace continuously or repeatedly everytime "flow" doesn't recognize a word correctly really slows me down a lot, especially as I have more than just English active at the same time.

Besides it really doesn't make much sense to delete just a few letters at a time if "flow" didn't recognize the correct word in the first place.

Please do something about this!

Hi. I would like to know if there is a way to deactivate the GIF option. Not the emoji, just the GIF part. I keep sending the same gif over and over by mistake and it even finds its way into text messages making them MMS.

Is there anyway to deactivate this feature? Thank you

Hi,

I've just changed from Windows Phone to Android and installed the Swiftkey keyboard.

On Windows Phone, if I wanted to switch a text or a whole message to upper or lower cases, I just selected all the text or the specific word and pressed the up arrow (that handles upper or lower) and it was converted. I checked that on Android I can convert the word pressing space after it. Can you please add this funcionality to it? It's a better and fast way to do it...

Does the SwiftKey backup system also back up my clipboard pinned snippets?

Pressing the emoji icon when writing an SMS (built in function on Samsung Galaxy S6) makes the Samsung Keyboard to crash while using Swiftkey. This hasen't been a problem until the new update came out for the phone about a week ago.

You have to restart your phone, and uninstall Swiftkey to prevent the notification from popping up, you can't use the keyboard otherwise. 

I've tried other keyboard apps and some of them have the same issue.

I really love Swiftkey and I've used it for many years. Can you please come up with a fix, the problem is EXTREMLY annoying. 

Thanks!

I Wonder how i can remove the botton to dot and comma??

Is there a button that allows you to easily switch keyboards? I use another keyboard for programming and would like to switch between the two. The programming keyboard and a few others (gboard) you can hold the spacebar to list all of your keyboards if you can add this feature if such does not yet exist. Thanks!

In the latest beta the keyboard scaling issue has reappeared. Have also noticed that suggested words now also flow into the menu button to the left.

Hi, quick question
Ned to remove the red line under words and i wanna make him stop asking me to add words to the dictionary. Tried every settings, nothing worked, it keeps doing this. Im frustrated!!

I thought if we have transparency keyboard it would be more easy to use in some cases and I thought it not difficult for SwiftKey team because  I see it transparency when I move in under dock mode

Hey,

I absolutely cannot understand why flow is just not optional but obligatory instead. It happens so many times that I accidentally swipe and it either types the suggested word or clears it depending on the setting. What if I don't want to use any of those options, no flow at all?

So I had the huawei theme installed on my p9 and after my app updated my theme was gone and it's not in the store anymore.. 🙁 it was my favorite theme.. I've reinstalled swiftkey but no fix.. What happened?

Hi,

I've been trying to save all my swiftkey data from my old S6 to new S8 and it logs into my google account without any issues, it says it is syncing, but the data does not transfer from my old phone to the new one.

I've got quite a lot of swiftkey data from maybe 2 years of useage, so I'd like to sync it if possible.  Can this be done?  I followed your guide below, but this does not work for me, the new phone still has no predicted words, no words completed, no words flowed etc after syncing.  

My google account is set to sync app data if that makes a difference?

Can anyone guide me in the right direction please?

Thanks :)

Issue description:
Long pressing/holding delete or swiping to delete will only delete 1 letter/digit at a time within wechat. This is only happening within the wechat application, and no where else.

Information regarding the issue:
There is already a post here with all relevant information:
https://vip.swiftkey.com/index.php?/topic/17156-wechat-long-press-backspace-doesnt-delete-whole-word-in-english-needs-more-info/

Short version is that, in order to fix a minor bug where users had to click 4 times to delete an emoji, this new issue was introduced. This new issue is far worse than the bug they were fixing...

Despite this being a 'known issue' it still hasn't been addressed in any of the recent updates. 

Can this please get fixed, I just got a new nexus 5x and am experiencing this problem, I don't want to have to install an old version of swiftkey so that I can type/delete properly in wechat (which I use all the time).

Cheers,

I'm a beta tester.
You've recently made a change that that reduced the typing efficiency. In the past ,while typing a word, it automatically predicted the next word and entered an automatic space. In order to change the current word, i had to hit the backspace. Now, the keyboard gives me automatic suggestions for the current word and I have to hit the spacebar to get the next suggestion. BTW, it also puts automatically 2 spaces between the words. In addition, It makes the automatic quick period functionality redundant.

After the recent update, it is impossible to remove items from the toolbar. Can you pls consider re-instating the option of removing unwanted buttons to allow "swift" entry than making it mandatory to keep 6 buttons.

Hi,

when entering an email address with Swiftkey, there's the key with the @-sign to the right of the space bar. When doing a long press, it offers a list of domain names (for me "@yahoo.com", "@hotmail.com" and "@gmail.com") for quick fill. Is there any way to edit this list? I would love to add a few entries to this list.

Best regards,

Daniel

Not only does SwiftKey often predict the wrong word but along with that it will predict that same word with another word after it taking up two of the three slots on my Android phone. Is there a way to illuminate this?

 I'm trying to switch from dvorak to qwerty layout. I've tried to follow the instructions, but when I click on a language, there's nothing to scroll; no layout options. If I click the globe, then click a language, a keyboard appears with a green dot on it with a check in the middle and it says dvorak on the bottom.

No matter what I try the layout won't change. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not able to switch from one language to the other, and you always do the auto correct in the wrong language when both languages are turned on.

Emoji predictions are set to OFF. But they keep appearing. Your useless support is telling me that this is not a bug but a feature.

Latest version of swiftkey.

How do I make my Android use SwiftKey as default keyboard
