I used an Android Nexus 5 for many years with swiftkey. I really liked the keyboard layout with the numbers on top row and symbols among the letters, where you press a bit longer to get the number or symbol. 

I switched to an iPhone and immediately put swiftkey on thinking it would be the same, but no. The numbers and symbols are hidden in another keyboard. I hate this. I always end up hunting for a symbol I'm looking for.

The Android way is just so much more intuitive. Is there some setting on iOS/swiftkey that gives the Android type keyboard? I went thru all the settings but couldn't find anything.

I use SwiftKey (the paid version) with English and my native language, Malayalam. My language settings are as in the screenshot below.

My phone is primarily for work use, so most of my keypad usage is to type out professional emails, Slack messages, Asana updates etc. and the only acceptable language for such communications is English. I use Malayalam occasionally on certain WhatsApp groups; where I know all members are capable of reading and understanding the language. In earlier versions of SwiftKey switching between these was quick and easy via the spacebar, and the product worked very well for my requirements.

But of late, I see that SwiftKey is predicting words in Malayalam when I'm typing in English and worse still, these words are offered as the middle prediction:

This is incredibly annoying; and I have searched all over the place - but it seems like there is no way to disable this behaviour. At the moment I have removed Malayalam from SwiftKey completely because this "feature" is interfering in my work. My questions:

1. Is it true that I cannot disable this feature?

2. Is there a way I can downgrade to a version of SwiftKey that did not have this feature?

3. Is there any plans for adding a configuration option to disable this feature? If yes when will that come out?

Thanks.

I like and use Your keyboard primarily for the Android but also for the Apple. L

On the other hand I purchased on IBM Surface tablet and was very discouraged to find they support almost no usable on screen keyboards.

I can give you the list of features of your keyboard that they don't support, and of course some features that I'd like you to add.

But the major thing I would like to do is ask why you,  as a subsidiary of Microsoft,  can not convince them to allow you to have an alternate keyboard for their Windows 10 Surface tablets.

Note: I would be perfectly willing to pay for a 'Pro' version  if that's what takes to get it your software moved over to their package

Thanks... 

Hey guys,

I was wondering if in addition to the 3D touch cursor control there could be a cursor control function integrated into the spacebar?

It'd be similar to touch ID in the sense that it would understand the gesture as a distinct one.
It would require a clean swipe to the left or right starting on the spacebar to activate in order to prevent any unwarranted cursor control during multi-word swiping.

I believe it would suit the flowly nature of SwiftKey and be a welcome option for those either:
1) wanting cursor control without the pause 3D touch demands.
2) enables iPhone SE users to have SwiftKey offer another feature stock doesn't provide enhancing the SwiftKey flow optimised phone size.

Cheers for giving this a read either way and love the app guys!

Can I make swiftkey switch automatically to incognito mode whenever I open specific apps or windows? Such as incognito tabs in Chrome and Firefox.

Otherwise, is there a (non root) 3rd party app that can do it?

Hello everyone.

I want to know that is it possible to change the number keys layout? I like to use Google and Samsung type keyboard layout for numbers.

How do I get portrait keyboard or t9 option

So, I've had SwiftKey for many, many years and been through a huge number of phones, but never had this issue.

I have a few devices - one of them being an iPhone, the other being a Samsung.

I recently purchased a new Samsung (S9), and it seems although it shows the sync as being connected, it doesn't 'remember' any of the many words I have on there. It's an issue which I've never had.

I've deleted, reinstalled, clicked sync on both sides, ensured it's logged in etc. No luck.

I have a SwiftKey account for my synchronising. In the most recent update of iOS SwiftKey, it no longer seems to be an option, to log-in with a SwiftKey account, but only with Facebook, Microsoft, Google or Apple.  Could this be it?

Any idea what it could be?

I got a new phone and installed the app and signed in with the account that I was using on my old phone. However, after running the sync operation, none of my old predictions are showing up. I still have my old phone and I'm able to confirm that both of them have backup and sync configured and both of them are signed in with the same account ID. Any suggestions?

Just installed SwiftKey on my new mobile. when I want to login with my Google account (button sign in with Google) it's loading for hours (I see the loading circle on a white background).
Phone: Galaxy S9, Android 9.0 (two days before I had the android version before and had the same problem) and yes, I installed and deleted it meanwhile more times.   

Hello!

Unfortunately, words can no longer be deleted by pressing the prediction key for a long time. Is this solved differently now or is it an error?
- iPhone X
- System: iOS 12

It would be really awesome to have Bitmoji integrated with SwiftKey. I've been vying for this feature suggestion for a while. It's a really great feature. Hope Microsoft will consider it in the future. Thanks for listening.

I'm getting a double number "7" with the "8" and "9" keys shifted to the right. (I believe this is also eliminating the "%" key.) Occurs on every theme I try, with the numeric keypad set to the left.

SwiftKey version 7.1.0.17 beta
Device is LG V20 (LG-LS997)

My keyboard stopped showing word suggestions in Google + comments a few minutes ago. It works fine when creating a post and everywhere else, but I but not when adding comments. I tried rebooting, force stopping and clearing the cache, but no go. What happened?

When I use both English and Swedish language in SwiftKey it constantly auto capitalizes "i" even though I have selected the Swedish language/keyboard.
If I only have Swedish language/keyboard it doesn't do this. But I like to switch between English and Swedish, so having a single language enabled is not an option.
Please correct this bug, it's really annoying to constantly have to correct this when writing in Swedish.
I have noticed that this topic has been brought up for several years, maybe it's time to fix it?

Hi,
I know it has been fixed one year ago but the latest update made my keyboard far too big.
Here are screenshots of the different sizes: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dcavhvbj2it8byl/AABIrKlbKm9ZQfek39ZbmvXea?dl=0
Please fix this quickly :)
Thanks

Hello there,

Add this function of cut copy paste and select-all by sliding the finger from numberkey to X, C, V and A respectively.

This would be really really helpful and would be the best update till date that saves a lot of time of the user.

Release the updates as soon as possible.

Thank you.

I use textra for messaging. It changes from dark to light mode. It would be nice if the keyboard did the same.

I just updated today and auto space after a period is gone and it's killing me.

Hello Swiftkey:

A feature that I really miss from other keyboards (such as Gboard) is the ability to search emojis. I really love this feature and I think its better than emoji prediction. Please add this is a close future update!

Yes, the lack of this feature would be enough to make me switch keyboards, but I really like Swiftkey.

Thanks

I have English (QWERTY) and Farsi languages installed. Prior to today I could choose between English and Farsi but now I have Farsi and English/Farsi. With the latter I get predictions in both languages and I don't want this. How can I get back to having English and Farsi separately?

Can you please add the Albanian language for iOS devices? It has been available in Android for a long time, and I'm really missing it on iPhone.

Thanks

As the title says, my predictions/sync has been broken for a few weeks now. Even though all my learnt words are available on data.swiftkey.com/view-data, nothing shows up as predictions on my phone.

Hello. My problem is about backup and sync. First I have to tell you these. 5 years ago I was using LG G3, and I moved on iPhone 6 Plus and I was able to use my old predictions. And then I moved on Xiaomi Mi 8, I was still be able to use all my learned data. And now I changed my phone to Oneplus 7 pro, and in the app I cannot see any of my learned data.
https://data.swiftkey.com/view-data in this website I can see my learned data, the words that I use most before on the other phones, but they won't show up on my new phone. 5-6 years of learned data was making my life easier but now I am not happy to use this app. So question is what should I do?

I lost my personal data. Can I import the zip filé downloaded on menu "view data" on my account?

I am experiencing very glitchy behaviour using the app with Spark. The response is slow, and the keyboard randomly switches from Swiftkey to the basic keyboard. I don't appear to be having this problem using Swiftkey with other apps. Any thoughts?
