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.

When will support for folding devices be added to SwiftKey? С ответом
0 проголосовали
1 комментарий
As stated, when will support for folding devices be added to SwiftKey? I've been forced to switch to Gboard for the time being due to SwiftKey not being able to automatically switch layouts when my device (Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3) is opened or closed. Many other users of folding devices have had to do the same. I have been using SwiftKey for 15 years and far prefer it over Gboard just because of the swipe left to delete gesture implementation. This should be a priority feature request. I've already submitted two feature requests over the past months with no response whatsoever. This should be easy to implement and several people have already developed a work around using Tasker, SwiftKey, and SwiftKey Beta. -
Swiftkey no longer works with Hancom Office

Hi, I like using Swiftkey because of the ability to create long text shortcut keys which I use in customer support and because it is the only keyboard to somewhat support spell checking and preemptive text when using Samsung DeX.
It used to work great but recently I was using my word processor of choice, Hancom Office, and it is no longer working. It backspace and adds duplicate keys I reinstalled and it still isn't workingUsing Samsung Tab S8 Ultra and Book cover Keyboard Does not happen with on Screen Keyboard or any other app/In this example, I typed the following:The Quick Brown FoxJohn Doethe quick brown foxAnd this is what got printed on the screen in Hancom Office Word. It appears to be related to shifted characters.TheQuickBrownFoxFBQJohnDoeJ

Theme swiftkey С ответом
-1 проголосовали

Hi, I've been a swiftkey user for over 4 years now. I love this keyboard, but recently I changed my smartphone and now I have a Samsung s21 fe, previously a Huawei. Huawei had a theme called huawei emui 9, which samsung doesn't have. My request would be: wouldn't it be possible to insert a theme like this? Not necessarily called huawei but with the same colors and key edges. I have a hard time getting used to the new theme, on the store they are all minimal and borderless, for over 4 years I have been using the theme with borders. The default white one is nice but doesn't come complete with borders. Type of enter key emoji etc. I hope that you will insert this theme soon, otherwise I will be forced to change keyboard, for example the gboard has the possibility to use the minimal keyboard or activate the borders. -

How do I contact app account support? I tried the website but there was no response! I no longer have access to the Google account I used to log in to the app, only the account ID. I've submitted a request through this link (https://support.swiftkey.com/hc/en-us/requests/new) many times but haven't not received any response... It's been many days I've been using the keyboard for years, before being from Microsoft! I have a lot of important data saved! He's already family! 😭 -

Too many bad predictions - easy fix С ответом
0 проголосовали
1 комментарий
In past 3 yrs my typing experience with SwiftKey has been steadily deteriorating (I use it for 5 yrs or so). If you add new feature I am about to ask it will eliminate at least 50% errors in prediction and arguably improve learning of your models. For unknown reason I seem to hit Space by mistake too often. A lot more than it's reasonable to assume. For example I am typing "I think" and I end up "I the hink". In many instances completely random 3-4 words pasted in the text. I think - if you add a setting where users can change distance between main keys and space would solve it -

Predictions Capitalized in middle of sentence
1 голос
1 комментарий
Many of my words are predicted in a capitalized form, even in the middle of a sentence. It seems like I get the capitalized form more often than lowercase, making the prediction nearly useless. I keep removing these words but it keeps happening. There's got to be some way to get the app to only show capitalized words at the beginning of a sentence or when typed that way much more often than in lowercase. Or when typed in all-caps repeatedly. Or baring that, just only predict lowercase words. Because those are used far more often, most words are NOT at the beginning of a sentence.. This is an extremely annoying and time wasting problem. -

How to add new word in prediction С ответом
0 проголосовали
1 комментарий
Hello! I am repeating this question as there was no response before. When there's a new word that SwiftKey doesn't know, the word should appear in the left side of predicted words. Then I should click it and boom, the word has been added to the dictionary. But no, the word I am typing amd SwiftKey doesn't know, does not appear anywhere where I could click on it and teach the word. Is this a bug? I have tried to see every setting but nothing has worked. Also, SwiftKey on Android learned words just by typing it and pressing space. But on iOS it doesn't seem to work like that. Thank you for help! -

Text to speech does not work in some apps С ответом

I typically use text to speech more than I use actual texting because I have a job that requires me to be on the go a lot and it's hard to text while walking or driving. So when I'm using other apps like say Tiktok I cannot use the text to speech app it opens and then immediately closes it even makes the "budum" sound to alert me that it both opened and closed. I wrote all of the details in this details box using text to speech to prove that it works most of the time. -
SwiftKey breaks the swype when word starts from bottom row С ответом
0 проголосовали
3 прокомментировали
I am a SwiftKey user for over 8 years now. I just purchased a Galaxy S22 Ultra. When I start a word from the bottom row, I notice this most with words starting with "b" or "c," SwiftKey will predict that letter, followed by a space, and another word. Sometimes I will even slow down, to ensure that I'm not doing anything out of the ordinary, and it will break the swype as I am swyping it. This isn't constant, but it's enough that I consider the software broken. -

Parole lunghe troppo piccole С ответом

Quando vengono scritte lunghe parole o indirizzi email, il testo è troppo piccolo, a volte impossibile da leggere e da scegliere. Devo dire che su Gboard hanno risolto il problema tenendo sempre i caratteri grandi ma mostrando l'inizio e la fine della parola, intervallata con dei puntini. Mi piacerebbe anche su questa ottima tastiera, o almeno come opzione nel setting -
