No Navigation Keys on Phone Number Keyboard Con risposta
0 voti 1 commento

When entering or editing phone numbers, SwiftKey opens an abbreviated keyboard with only digits and a few other keys (space, parentheses, some symbols, a backspace key, and an enter key), but there are no navigation keys (left and right arrows). These would be very useful when correcting numbers. Is there a way to add them? If not, please consider adding them in a future release.

Since the 'upgrade' to Android 11, text to speech no longer inserts punctuation. Saying 'period' types out the word p-e-r-i-o-d instead of putting a . there

Autocomplete Suggesting No Space Between Period and Next Word Con risposta
0 voti 5 commenti

I have been having the most bizarre issue as of lately. For some reason,when I type a period or other punctuation marks (with automatic spacing on) and the first word of the next sentence, it likes to autocorrect it to the period and the first word combined (without a space).And just as example,the period and the And without a space in the beginning of this sentence was caused by Swiftkey autocompleting that for me.It is super annoying as you can see.Any misstyping that is causing spaces to disappear are complete not intentional. Can anyone help?

Please add more features to improve the Chinese (Pinyin) keyboard. For example, add the function that can independently choose each Pinyin. Please take reference of other Chinese keyboard like Sougou, Baidu Keyboard. They are doing well in this area.

Zwischen Swiftkey und Gboard switchen Con risposta
0 voti 1 commento

Hallo zusammen

wie kann ich zwischen den Tastaturen switchen? Wenn ich bauf Gboard bin kann ich ohne probleme auf Swiftkey wechseln, aber von der Swiftkey Tastatur kann ich auf keine andere Tastatur direkt wechseln. HIer muss ich immer über die Handy Einstellungen gehen. Das ist sehr mühsam.

Hello everybody

how can I switch between the keyboards? When I'm on Gboard I can switch to Swiftkey without any problems, but I cannot switch directly to any other keyboard from the Swiftkey keyboard. Here I always have to go through the cell phone settings. It is very troublesome.
Changing languages while using a physical Bluetooth keyboard Con risposta
1 voto 12 commenti

I'm using a physical Bluetooth keyboard with my Galaxy Tab S7, and when I try to switch from English to Hebrew, it doesn't do anything, whether I press the globe icon or use the hot key. The on-screen keyboard will change, but the input from the physical keyboard will not. While using the native Samsung Keyboard, I don't have this problem. Any suggestions?

Numbers and symbols above letters Con risposta
0 voti 3 commenti

I opened my S10 this morning and noticed the keyboard no longer had the theme I chose. So I tried to download several and none of them were available. I uninstalled the app the reinstalled. Even though signed in the app did not remember my settings. I was able to download the themes and started to set up a new keyboard. Weirdly I can't find a setting for letters alone on the keyboard. Now there are symbols and numbers above the letters. This is driving me crazy, literally. I have severe ADHD and this is a nightmare for me.

Samsung S21 Ultra: frequent pop ups asking me to confirm keyboard or similar... Con risposta
0 voti 1 commento

i've been using Swiftkey Keyboard for a long time and now.

on any of my previous phones, including the S20 Ultra which i used from its introduction around Feb/March 2020 till just a week ago, everything was fine as usual.

with this new Samsung S21 Ultra, however, i get very frequent (rmultiple times each day, very annoying!) pop ups requesting something. i can't even tell what it's requesting, but it seems like it's asking me to confirm my keyboard choice or possibly Samsung Keyboard asking me if i want to use the Samsung Keyboard? i can't tell, as it doesn't have an explicit question asking me anything. when the pop up shows up, the bullet point for selecting which keyboard i want to use has ALREADY selected/highlighted the Microsoft Swiftkey keyboard. i have no idea why either the S21 Ultra or Samsung Keyboard or something else keeps wanting me to confirm this multiple times each and every day!

may i please kindly ask if someone could please try to help me resolve this please?

thank you in advance.
Add ability to pin frequently used emojis Con risposta
0 voti 7 commenti

I have an emoji I use to indicate amazement "😲" that I can't find since I don't know the keywords used for it. I'd like to pin it since I probably don't use more than 10 different emojis. It would be a minimal addition to the interface and speed up usage.
Options missing Con risposta
0 voti 1 commento

SwiftKey should give the option to disable two words on a single prediction box, as most of then don't make sense in my language (PTBR) and are very numerous and annoying to delete. The gesture/flow setting should have an option to disable both. There are some bugs in both normal and beta versions, like when I type "q" and for some unknown reason the prediction shows an "a" when it should show "que" (meaning "what" in my language). That problem stays even after I've deleted the prediction hundreds of times. It goes away for a time, but it comes back again. There should be a setting to save all my used words if I loose my account. From time to time the predictions show single consonants for no reason, like when I type "n" and it predicts and "n"... Which is useless for me because it's just a single letter. I delete these predictions, but they always come back sometime later.
Microsoft swiftkey flow underline Con risposta

I have a thin underline when i use flow on my swiftkey and when in snapchat the underline just stays there and it shows for the person who is receiving my snap. My question is that can it be disabled since i find it very irritating. Thanks for the answer already!
Clipboard no longer works with numbers keyboard Con risposta
0 voti 1 commento

In an app I use there is a field to input a number to submit. Clicking on this field opens Swiftkey's numbers keyboard by default (the one with numbers and symbols accessed by the 123 button on the main keyboard). Up until recently I could access the clipboard to paste a number in, now long pressing does nothing and no clipboard is available. The Samsung keyboard works so I don't think it is the other app.
add more emoticons or customization options Con risposta
1 voto 2 commenti

I haven't seen a way to do this yet, but I find the standard emoticons that are offered to be very bad and lacking in terms of the number of different options.
For instance, literally nobody I know uses ":-D", it's always ":D" which makes this function basically useless for me personally because it seems completely unnatural.

But those are quick to type out yourself, I think it's much more important to add ones that you can't easily recreate on your own like "( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)" or better, just give people the option to add and customize emoticons themselves.

I'm aware that you can add them to your clipboard and assign shortcuts, but I would personally prefer having them in the same tab as the standard emoticons, that would be much more convenient and logical in my opinion.
Automatic period positioning Con risposta
0 voti 1 commento

I'm an engineer so I am constantly texting decimal numbers. When trying to type something like "the tolerance for that part is. 100" the period automatically snaps to the "is" and not to ".100" even when intentionally adding a space. I then have to monkey around with spaces or put the number in parenthesis. It's really annoying when I have to do this multiple times in a sentence. Disabling autocorrect doesn't stop this behavior.

Please add more sound options in SwiftKey as previously loaded ones are not that good.. And also we get bored after hearing those for a long time. Please consider adding more sound or providing custom sound feature or letting us to use the default sound of our device.
How can I get “Samsung Adaptive” theme on my other phone? Con risposta
0 voti 5 commenti

On my new Galaxy S21 I’ve got this theme called “Samsung Adaptive”, this is separate to the normal standard “adaptive” theme, this Samsung adaptive theme looks pretty much identical to Gboard’s design and it looks really cool.

I tried to get the theme on my older Note10+ but I can’t find it, both phone’s SwiftKey app version are on 7.7.1.8

I’ve noticed that SwiftKey came preinstalled and it’s a system app that can’t be uninstalled on the Galaxy S21, can I assume that this theme is a Galaxy S21 exclusive? I really hope this theme comes to older phones!

I’m getting an error message when trying to upload screenshots of the theme, here’s an Imgur link to it: https://imgur.com/a/peWpLdW
Capitalisation of the digraph IJ in Dutch Con risposta
1 voto 5 commenti

The Dutch swiftkey dictionary doesn't correctly capitalise Dutch words starting with the digraph ij. They should be capitalised as IJ, but swiftkey capitalises those words as Ij. Examples: - Ijmuiden (should be IJmuiden) - Ijsje (should be IJsje) - etc.

Kopieren in Zwischenablage funktioniert nicht mehr richtig! Con risposta
0 voti 1 commento

Ich habe ein Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro und nutze SwiftKey schon sehr lange. Leider funktioniert meine Zwischenablage nicht mehr richtig. Ich glaube, dass dies seit dem Update auf MIUI12 der Fall ist, bin mir aber nicht wirklich sicher. Ich habe Android 9 drauf; das hat sich auch nach dem Update auf MIUI12 nicht geändert! Normalerweise wählte man Textteile aus, klickte auf kopieren und der Text war sofort in der Zwischenablage, wo man ihn anpinnen konnte und zusätzlich stand er sofort in der Vorschlagszeile, sodass man ihn mit einem Klick direkt irgendwo einsetzen konnte. Aber seit einiger Zeit funktioniert das nicht mehr; bzw. muss man mindestens 2 oder 3 mal den Text kopieren, bis er endlich in der Zwischenablage erscheint. Komischerweise kann man ihn aber einsetzen, wenn man im Textfeld lange gedrückt hält und dann auf "Einfügen" klickt. Also so, wie es eigentlich bei jedem Handy standardmäßig funktioniert. Also wird der Text wohl in die systemeigene Zwischenablage kopiert, aber leider eben nicht in die von SwiftKey! Hat noch jemand dieses Problem? Oder liegt es eventuell wirklich am aktualisierten MIUI12? Unter MIUI11 funktionierte es noch einwandfrei! LG Hunter 😉
