Swiftkey Lags with Microsoft Outlook App
Hi,
with the microsoft outlook Android app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.office.outlook&hl=en
Swiftkey (happens with both the normal and beta versions) starts lagging horribly. i.e., you need to wait a really long time (a few seconds) for any key to appear on the screen. scrolling is slow and everything is slow. it feels like the phone has locked up. everything is back to normal once I kill outlook. It's fine with the stock samsung keyboard btw.
I'm running this on a samsung S7 with android 6.0.1. stock firmware supplied by my carrier. firmware version is g935Fxxu1cpl1 baseband version is g935fxxu1cpl2
Thanks,

Hello Raj,
Sorry to hear that. Can you confirm following information?

Hi Alpert,
Thanks for the reply. The replies are
v6.5.3.35 for the regular swiftkey
v6.5.4.24 for swiftkey beta
it's been happening for a while. and I update switfkey quite often. I finally got round to submitting a bug report as I got particularly annoyed with it today.
yes. on a S7 Edge with regular carrier provided SEA (Singapore) firmware.
I don't really notice it elsewhere. outlook is particularly bad and once it starts lagging there, the lag seems to last a bit to other apps as well. before it goes away. the lag shows up as both normal lag and also random clicks. I've sent quite a few "accidental" emails in outlook because of this. the whole phone just seems to hang when swiftkey starts lagging. if I remember correctly, it even rebooted once. but that was unreproducible.
hope this helps!
Raj
market is English -> Singapore btw

Hi,
Thanks for the details. I assume you've already tried to reinstall?
Have you updated Outlook app recently? It could be caused by Outlook too.
I'll share the info with the team.

Hi,
yes I have re-installed already. no effect.
and the outlook app has been updated quite a few times recently. Not sure what the app could do to freeze a specific keyboard though. like I said, it works fine with the default samsung keyboard (which is swiftkey derived right?)
Thanks,
Raj
I'm also having this issue on my HTC one M8. The lagging only occurs in outlook and no other apps. I've had the issue for a few months now.
I'm running Android version 6.0 (6.12.61.4) and SwiftKey version 6.5.3.35
I also have this issue. Would be great to get a fix.
