A niche request I realise. Some businesses and parents who lock down Android phones want to disable the gif functionality.

This can be made possible by supporting the following, like the chrome app does for URL whitelisting:

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

Why there is no bangla language

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?

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've been using SwiftKey for a long time, and as of a recent update, it has been suggesting multiple words as the top suggestion. The most common example is when I type "I'm" the first or second suggestion is "I'm not". I can remove even basic words from my predictions, but I can't remove any word pairs.

The number of times I've accidentally said "I'm not sorry" or "I'm not on my way" is embarrassing, please help.

SwiftKey has recently introduced an en/bn layout where one can type in english keyboard to write both English and Bengali. It's quite good.
In Bengali, we use 'dari' (।) in place of a period. But that layout has no '।' symbol for easy access. So, whenever I finish writing a sentence in Bengali, I have to switch to the general বাংলা (Bengali) layout, add '।', and then again switch back to en/bn layout. This is really convoluted. My suggestion is to add '।' as a secondary option in the ',' key on the left of space bar.
In any case, please do something about it.
I'm using SwiftKey Beta.
Thank you.

I use Swiftkey Beta with English and Tamil languages. When I type in English, Swiftkey is predicting words in both English and Tamil. Most of the word prediction in Tamil is nonsensical. Can I change the Swiftkey setting so when I type in English, I only get English word prediction? This change is leading to so much error.   

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

I just switched to a Samsung s8 from an S5. I had 29 themes on the s5. Now on the installation of the s8 I have 14. Looks like the themes I purchased can't be found to download. Including Holo😯.

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.

May I suggest here that the above mentioned option should be added? 

It would be extremely helpful because in Poland when writing SMS messages with Polish tittles (ex. ą, ę, ł, ó) instead of ex. 1 SMS there goes 3 (Polish tittles so to say 'consume the capacity" of one SMS), which equals bigger price for texting. 

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

Using Chrome Beta. Latest Play Store version of SK.

When trying to type a comment on Facebook, desktop site (www.facebook.com), using Chrome on Android, hitting the space key deletes the typed word, recenters the window and the keyboard disappears. 
This issue does not happen when using the mobile version (m.facebook.com)

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?

Please change nickel dark back to how it was. That look was why I used SwiftKey. I've been using SwiftKey for years, back when it was a paid app on Android, and I always used that theme. I'm very disappointed and would like my theme back.

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 :)

When I want to correct something in the middle of a word I place the cursor on the spot (for example if I forgot an 'a' somewhere).

I then get a prediction, and when I press spacebar, only the part before the cursor is getting replaced. Not the part behind the cursor.

I find that really annoying. Samsung Keyboard replaces the whole word in that case. So I can type on.

Now I need to manually erase the part that is being left behind the cursor.

Is there a way to configure it the way Samsung keyboard handles it?

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,

Hi guys!

Thought about using SwiftKey as my regular keyboard after the new flow update. But there are still some details I have problems with:

- spaces before or after using a hyphen and colon
- quick reply limitations on the lockscreen (I know, never gonna happen)

Best regards

Hello!

Since about two months ago, I keep missing the spacebar with my right thumb and hitting. The full stop key instead. <- producing odd-looking sentences like that.

It happens probably fifty times a day. That's a lot of back-spacing! It's so much that I started to wonder why SwiftKey doesn't collect and analyse telemetry on multiple backspacing to identify what errors are repeatedly occurring.

On my phone, the space and letter keys are a very slightly lighter grey than the keyboard background, but the function keys like enter, backspace, full stop are not differentiated. Theres about 0.5cm padding on the left of the full stop key before the spacebar. I think that's why I keep hitting it instead. Could this be fixed?

Thanks so much,
Daniel

option to set a bar with shortcut text or symbols or emojis above the suggestions like in chrooma

Hey I had an idea for your keyboard.

A custom emoji tab where we can add a select number of our favorite emoji for quick selection. SwiftKey is the top of the crop and this feature would enhance our typing capabilities even more. Thanks!

New poster. I hope this is in the correct place. Mods please advise if necessary :)

after the recent update , auto spacing prediction is not working, I have to manually press space button to get the next predicted word. which makes typing slow. and it is really embarrassing.
please bring back the old settings and my keypad freezing frequently.

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.
