Microphone
love the app - understand that it defers to Google for voice to text which is fine but do any of the keyboards have the microphone button larger? I downloaded this app to have a larger keyboard but now it is harder to get to the microphone - may have to uninstall it if there is no fix
Por favor, entrar para comentar.
All you need to do is to tap & hold on the comma key to get access to the speech-to-text feature.
I have to agree with the above comment. Access to the microphone key was just wholly inadequate. I only spent about 5 minutes with SwiftKey and gave up on it because I do most of my typing by voice. I hope you will consider putting the microphone key in a more prominent place at least as an option in the future.
Thank you.
The only thing I hate about SwiftKey is that the microphone button should be on its own button and easy to use. That's why I switched back to gboard
I have to agree, the microphone button needs to be bigger and in the prediction bar (just like on Windows and gboard).
Definitely need to put the microphone front and centre! The whole reason I downloaded SkiftKey is that the Samsung keyboard on my new Samsung Galaxy Note 8 has a horrible lag with the voice feature - I've read it's because it doesn't play well with google voice text. SK seems to play well with Google Voice but I want to be able to easily enable voice, and keep it enabled!
Love swiftkey, but definitely need a bigger and preferably dedicated microphone button.
I don't mind holding down on the microphone /, button but I wish I can choose to keep the microphone to be the default option rather than holding it down and waiting it for it to access. I e Google keyboard
I love Swiftkey, but downloaded GBoard just to check it out. Having the microphone within easy reach is amazing. I've been using Swiftkey so long now that the predicted text is too good to leave, but if you could move the microphone that would be amazing.
I love SwiftKey as well, but I made the exact same comment about the microphone key almost 8 months ago, as have many others. It is very disappointing that the developer is not responding.
I am using Gboard, but would immediately switch.
This is a REAL ISSUE and it feels like swiftkey developers are just spitting in our face in regards to the tiny little microphone button and its inaccessibility
I dont like Gboard but its the only board with translate and voice other tban swiftkey but I will now have to go back to gboard because swiftkey has no respect for good helpful and needed suggestions Apparently!!!
I went back and read from the beginning of this thread. By now, SwiftKey has rhad enough comments to let them know there are a fair number of us who would like to have a more prominent microphone key. Apparently they're not willing to accommodate us, which is a shame because they have an otherwise excellent product.
Too bad. Swiftkey's loss.
On my Samsung phone, I use the Samsung keyboard. It's really very good.
Rob I agree it would otherwise be a great product, that short useless answer they gave waaaaaay back in the thread shows what they really think of their users. It's too bad.
I agree! They need to make the voice input key like it is on gboard. Out of the way and you don't have to hold it down to access the voice input! Please! Otherwise I love SwiftKey
