Microsoft SwiftKey Android Support Forums

I just upgraded to the Galaxy s8 with Andriod 7.0 when I dictate a text using SwiftKey, and then click on a word to correct, the drop-down list of suggested corrections appears in black font on a black background (that I can't read).  Any suggestions?   Please respond to VicCarlson@aol.com.

Is there a way to delete specific words from the SwiftKey vocabulary without deleting the entire vocabulary?

Why does a space appear before a semicolon?

How can i deactivate vibration on typing characters?

I still have the regular version of the SwiftKey app. Do I need uninatal now that I am using the beta version of SwiftKey? l

I want to use emoji :p when I long press p, please add this function

My z and y have been exchanged. Why did it happen and how do I exchange them back.

Will SwiftKey ever allow repositioning of the keys? I'm constantly pressing the full stop button instead of the space bar and want the full stop moved.

I did it download SwiftKey it just appeared but decided to try it. One of the functions I no longer have is the attachment button. I have tried everything I can think of to find a way to attach pictures but can't figure it out. Is it possible to attach with this keyboard? I have an oneplus 2 android phone.

Hello,

Could you tell me what languages are currently suported by neural network predictions?
Thanks

There is a bar above the keyboard, this bar shows the predicted words, language etc. How can i totally hide this bar from my keyboard?

Is there a tab key

Samsung Galaxy Note Five reverts back to Samsung keyboard each morning when I turn phone on each morning. How do I stop this?

Is there any shortcut to Switch Between Languages? Every time I have to go to settings to select required Language. Very Lengthy Process.

When I go to enter a URL or search in Adblock browser, and type the first letter, "a" for example, it automatically spells out "arstechnica.com" and won't allow me to write over that choice. If I try to delete it and start over it just happens again. I need to type a word and a space, then delete the auto filled stuff. This is infuriating! Doesn't happen with Samsung keyboard, only SwiftKey.

I've been a SwiftKey user since the very start of the app. I have used it in Android and iOS. One thing is missing: Why not let the user create their own theme? At least the ability to choose colors and fonts.
This would push your keyboard over the top!

Great product!

Since (unknown update), the gesture mode swipe down to hide does not work in 99% of the tries. The keyboard tries to do anything, but hiding, types the first key the finger touches the moment it hits the display, without even starting a gesture recognition, or does whatever.

Please fix this, it's really annoying, because the damn keyboard has no close/hide button. There are thousand of forms which does not trigger a close button, for example when you want to write a rating on the Play Store, and the damn SwiftKey is in the foreground, over the input test field.

Asked a friend to try, and for him it's broken too.

How to put up indian rupee symbol on keyboard?

Hey first of all this is the best keyboard available in the store. I have been using this since 2 years that's almost when I started using Android technology.
Now secondly, I have a suggestion for track button. It is very difficult to move the cursor by one or two character. And if the phone has small screen then it is quiet impossible to move the cursor by 1-2 characters. Recently while using an app known as "Mobile C" which have it's own keyboard, I came across a great feature of track button. This made it quite easy to move the cursor for short distance. It would be cool if you consider to add this feature in your product too. It's quite useful. Now I know that our keyboard has navigational buttons. But it makes the keyboard look big and occupy more than half of the screen. So please consider my suggestion.

Hi, it seems my keyboard will not open for some odd reason, I've rebooted my phone several times, and nothing seems to be working, I'm using the Google keyboard for the time being. Whenever I try opening the Swiftkey keyboard, nothing happens. I hope someone can help me with this, thanks!

I have a tablet that I use SwiftKey on, and just also installed it onto my new smartphone. I made sure backup & sync was enabled on the tablet, then signed into the same account on the phone and told it to sync, but my account data won't load.

I'd love to have a question mark permanently instead of a dot, I swipe to access and I type a lot of 'ml' when I'm in a hurry. Please, I beg you. :)

Greetings,

I've recently switched to Swiftkey because I'm having some problems with Gboard. The one major thing I miss from that, however, is its wonderfully simple and intuitive 'gesture delete' function. You should really, REALLY check it out to see why it's so much better than just pressing and holding the del key and hoping you can release it in time to avoid deleting more than you wanted to. This is particularly important on a system like Android that doesn't offer any ctrl-z type undo options. All you do is swipe left off the del key until the text you want to delete is highlighted, then release to perform the delete. If you swipe too far you just have to slide back towards the del key a bit first. Simple!

I also find it mightily frustrating that the last word entered by flow typing can't be deleted with a single tap on the del key. That's how every other 'swipe' type keyboard app I've tried works and it seems pretty obvious to me it's how it should be. I realize this has been asked before and rejected, but I'd urge you to reconsider and at least make it an option.

I've just downloaded this keyboard as I wanted one with emoji prediction functionality and so far it's been a good decision!

A couple of quick queries - on my main keyboard page the numbers appear in the top row, is there any way to have the numbers appear on the top row on the punctuation page as well rather on the right or left?

Also, on the bottom row of the main keyboard is there any way to change the key next to enter so that the automatic option is a question mark rather than full stop? I know I can long press for the question mark but would prefer if it was readily available.

Should be self explanatory. Isn't truth a regular word in the dictionary? It showed up there. Why would it only be available capitalized after a comma?

There is a way to replace "." and ","?
I really need comma on the right and dot to be available on double tap space.

Thanks

Please advise how to remove the colorful trail that follows your finger each time you swipe. It's very distracting! Can that be cleared?

If it's possible I would really enjoy a setting that allows the keyboard theme to be chosen at random from your downloaded themes at different intervals. Maybe daily or hourly or even every time the keyboard pops up. There's so many themes I like but I get lazy and don't want to go to settings to decide which one I want to use.

Android - 7.1.1 - Nexus 5x
Swiftkey - 6.5.5.30

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,
