SwiftKey Q&A: Week 1 - Cursor Control Afixado Em destaque
-1 votos 16 comentários

We recently brought Cursor Control to your Microsoft SwiftKey Keyboard for Android. This much-requested feature had previously only ever been available on iOS.

If you haven't tried it out you can do so by tapping & holding your spacebar to move the cursor.

If you use multiple languages, cursor control will need to be turned on first; this setting can be found in your ‘Typing’ menu.

Make yourself heard!

We'd love to know what you think. This is YOUR opportunity to help us shape the future of Cursor Control, e.g. is it useful? Does it work as you expect? Could it be improved? Do you love/hate it?
Whatever your opinion, we will take all feedback seriously.

Swiping backspace needs work
0 votos 1 comentário

I was pretty happy to read that you finally implemented the swipe over backspace key to select text for deletion but it still needs some work because it doesn't always work. I'm guessing it's because the swipe to delete feature is interfering with it, causing it to not registering the gesture properly. This option should be disabled. But also the activation area of the backspace key needs to be increased.

Keyboard filled with garbage words
0 votos 1 comentário

My user dictionary is getting filled with tons of off-by-on-letter garbage words automatically. Whenever I type with swift key, it often autocorrects to a misspelled word. Seems it learns to get worse over time rather than better I'm going to throw away my user dictionary and start from scratch. Before I do that, did you guys want to look at it first?

More personalization of the keyboard
0 votos 1 comentário

I like they add more options to customize the keyboard in as the custom theme as SwiftKey themes, like the key borders, we can't change the size, the color, the bright of this color, the text type and text size (comment if you want to share more options you'll like to have on the SwiftKey). I guess it will improves the rate of that keyboard (mainly the key borders option from the default keyboard themes already is on the gboard)

Voice input typing issues Respondida

Whenever I use voice input with SwiftKey, if I pause for just a second input is ended. Also, the cursor will move to the start of the sentence. When using gboard and it's voice input, I can pause and think about my next words and then continue without having to restart the microphone. Please fix this
Anzeigefehler der Tastatur bei Android Funktion "Dark Mode erzwingen"
0 votos 1 comentário

Hallo,

ich habe seit einiger Zeit schon das Problem bei Swiftkey, dass das Theme von der Tastatur nicht ordnungsgemäß angezeigt wird, wenn ich die Android Funktion "Dark Mode erzwingen" in den Entwickleroptionen aktiviert habe.

Das sieht dann so bei mir aus:

Ich habe das Theme Dark Mode bei Swiftkey aktiviert, die App macht durch die Android Funktion "Dark Mode erzwingen", das Theme wieder weiß.

Das passiert leider so gut wie bei allen Themen die ich auswähle.

Ich benutze ein Samsung Galaxy S21+ mit Android 12.

Folgende Handy Einstellung verursacht diesen Fehler bei Swiftkey:

Gibt es dazu bereits eine Lösung oder ähnliches?

Über eine Rückmeldung würde ich mich freuen.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Sami

SPACE AFTER PERIOD ISSUE {and after ')' too
0 votos 1 comentário

Is there a way to stop the automatic space after a period? This has been a problem for many people and is seemingly ignored by developers. Automatically adding a space after periods is fine but not after dots, unfortunately they use the same key. Also, after the right parentheses is an issue, it's not hard to tap after these characters, IL why can't it be included in the Swift Key Options? The ability to disable automatic period after a double space is an option, so I don't understand why the other similar issue can't be easily resolved. When I text, I always remove the additional '.' as no not transmit the extra Byte of data (a personal anal pet peeve, but if you think about it, that adds up and could be somewhat significant.
remember language per context

would be nice if the keyboard remembered which language was last (most?) used when opened in a specific context. examples : - when searching for apps, I usually use English - when chatting to a friend on WhatsApp I'll use Hebrew etc.

You must integrate this keyboard with the "Wordtune" application. It's inefficient without it.
[bug] autocorrect keeps changing So to Do
0 votos 1 comentário

Basically autocorrect keeps replacing "so" with "do" Leading to * "I love you do much right now" Or "do this is how it works then" Which gets tedious and annoying; especially because I can keep deleting it, and it keeps doing it over and over again

Since Android 12, when I Long Press in a text, Clipboard doesn't pop up. Only Paste and Autofill (which is apparently useless). Before the big update it worked perfectly. I use this a lot, so are lots of people. I was forced to switch to Samsung Keyboard for now.

Subscript and Superscript Respondida
1 voto 1 comentário

Scientific Notations, chemical formulas, and citation indicators are important to me, yet this keyboard only allows superscript from #1 to #4, no larger numerals, and no way to add subscript, at all. Please don't suggest I update, as I just downloaded the app, and it is updated. I need to know how to get these with this keyboard, or I will dump it. Thanks!
