Microsoft SwiftKey Android Support Forums

This has been asked for about a year ago, but I'll try again... I've enabled two languages in the SwiftKey (beta) app. My native tongue and English. Switching between the two is seamless, which I enjoy, but the app keeps capitalizing my I's in my mother tongue as well (where "i" is a standalone word that shouldn't be capitalized mid-sentence). It would be great if the app could for example look at the word before "i" and then suggest capitalizing only if the word is English.

For now I have to manually correct it, which takes a lot of time in the long run.

is there a way to move or remove the dot button? I find myself typing and hitting the dot. button. a lot instead. of hitting the. spacebar, I know this may be an issue found on possible every keyboard out there but would. be. nice if there was something we could do about it in swift

I like auto correct, but sometimes what I type is what I want. It gets almost impossible to enter what I really want without going through a lot of hassle and taking time. If I turn off auto correct, then I loose its advantages. How do I quickly undo the auto correct that was just inserted and keep typing? Need a button to undo last auto correct.

Hello everybody!

I'm having a big issue with SwiftKey on my HTC ONE M7 on Android 5.

The keyboard covers the input field in almost any messenger (WA, GG, TG,...) and makes it impossible to write.

The predictions are also not click-able. When I tap on one of the predictions, the keyboard disappears, as if I would tap on the Messengers window.

I have some Screenshots showing the bug but this forum doesn't seem to have an option to attach images. How can I post an image?

With this serious bug, SwiftKey is totally useless for me.
I can't see the text I'm writing.
I can't tap on the predictions.
The built-in HTC Sense Keyboard works just fine without this issue, so it has to be SwiftKey that's causing the bug.

Please resolve this issue as soon as possible. I can't live without SwiftKey!

Hi, is it possible to change languages manually? When I have two or more languages together (i have Czech, English and French) and use flow, the resulting words of the flow gesture tend to be wrong often (a lot). Even if i use only Czech and English which is necessary in my every day life it is not working well. I would appreciate manual language switching as was possible in the past. Also separate personal dictionaries would be implied.(added words)

I see so many requests to make the spacebar bigger to eliminate the problem with accidentally hitting the period but yet no response or fix from Swiftkey, so I thought I would add on a post.  I really want to love Swiftkey and keep switching back to it every couple of weeks but then that darn period problem annoys me so much that I end up quickly switching to another keyboard.  PLEASE FIX THIS!!

When I'm typing on another forum the keys have stopped working properly and even when I tap the prediction words it puts in other things. Often pressing spacebar pus in letters like T randomly. Just now trying to type T with a period after wouldn't let me.

It's seems most problematic on that site.

As a language student, I have a need to type in multiple languages (five, to be exact), though I'm having trouble with my external Bluetooth keyboard. Though I can change the prediction language to Russian or Korean, I can't actually type the characters (remains typing with a US layout when I'd really like to be typing in the language I've changed to).

There seems to be a bug with the Shift key after SWIPING a word. If I swipe a word, the cursor sits at the end of the word. Usually when the cursor is at the end of the word you can press the SHIFT key and the prediction menu will give you an option to change the word to the capitalized version.
However, if you press the SHIFT key after swiping, instead SwiftKey inserts a space. The SHIFT key is a modifying key and should never add a space. You currently have to push the BACK key, then the SHIFT, then you can select the capitalized Breton of the word
Please fix this.

does SwiftKey support handwriting input?

It's great that the QWERTZ (extended) layout has dedicated keys for Ä,Ö, and Ü, but there should definitely be a "ß" key (Eszett) as well. It's a common letter, and it's really cumbersome that you can only type it by longpressing the letter "S". There's enough space to add "ß" as well.

Hello

After last update to 6.7.2.20 there is a problem with emoji suggestion while writing. I have disabled that option and sometimes while typing it shows me suggestion. Look screenshot below:

Please fix this.

Hi, 

SwiftKey started suggesting me "c è" everytime I press "c", which is annoying as what I really want is "c'è" with the apostrophe (Italian).

My problem is I cannot get rid of that "c è" as if I long press the suggested word, nothing happens. Long pressing other words works, so this is really strange.

Thank you in advance,

Francesco

The smallest size of keyboard is too big for wqhd+ resolution on Samsung galaxy note 8. I really like swiftkey keyboard and have been using it for several years, bought paid version and a couple of themes, definitely wouldnt like to switch to other products. Could you please fix this issue?

I use multi language keyboard.
While I type english or other left to right languages, farsi recommendation is on mind and recommendations wont help. It is some thing useless for me.
How can I disable phonetic Feature? The only thing I hate from SwiftKey is phonetic. :((((((

It will be nice if the  High contrast theme has the symbols shown on the alphabets on the keys like some other themes so it's easier to key symbols.

Just got a Pixel 2XL, running the latest Android 8.0 build with the September security patch. On the latest SwiftKey beta, it won't let me log into my Facebook for personalization. It says error, not logged in please try again. I'm logged in to the Facebook app, and SwiftKey never prompts me to log in to Facebook in the pop-up. Anyone able to help?

I always asked myself why SwiftKey keyboard doesn't show up and hide in an elegant way and now even more when we have Nougat/Oreo with beautiful screen transitions, material design, etc.

Isn't possible to elaborate a sliding effect just like iPhone and even the Samsung default keyboard?

After testing other keyboards in the last days, I just realized that, although this is something minor, it's the type of thing that makes usability more pleasant, more fluid, smooth. So much better than just appearing and disappearing suddenly.

Don't know if it's something thought to reproduce in lower end phones, but could be something available in settings at least.

While trying to login to my swiftkey account, when I try to use my Google account, and it just loops back to browser. I tried it with my Microsoft account as well and it just keeps looping back to browser.
I'm using an LG V20, if that is a factor.

Love this keyboard. Was wondering if there is a way I can customize the color scheme, i.e., the letters, background and keys?

Hi. I would like to know if there is a way to deactivate the GIF option. Not the emoji, just the GIF part. I keep sending the same gif over and over by mistake and it even finds its way into text messages making them MMS.

Is there anyway to deactivate this feature? Thank you

I really love this keyboard.. The thing that drawing me out of using it was the multi lingual typing, if I choose English & Malayalam. The two languages clubbed together in one instance. I had terrible experience with that. Because, somany mistakes occur as both languages were live. So could you kindly give an option to use English keyboard, when using Native language. Thank you.

Persian layout swiftkey on android is not like ios. In android you put 10 keys in one row vs 11keys on ios. There are two alphebet in one key like
ت and ث
ص and ض
گ and پ
ز and ژ
ط and ظ
I ask this request many times but nobody answer me. I don't know why a language layout is different on ios and android. Please make persian layout on android like persian layout swiftkey on ios.

Im getting random periods all over the place. I have to back space in the middle of a sentence im trying to write all the time. Not sure what's going on. Ive been using this keyboard for years and this issue just started up a few months ago. I would deal it with but it's getting worse and bringing me to a typing crawl. Any helpful would be great!

Got my new Note 8 today and it seems you have the same issue in high resolution again like on the S8+...

The size of the keyboard in high resolution is to large even set smallest...

 I hope an update will come soon to display the keyboard correctly at high res.

Liebes Team,
Ich gehöre tatsächlich zu den zahlenden Kunden und wünsche mir die Umlaute auf der Tastatur zurück.

Galaxy S8+, stock. Using Gmail.
I hit reply, search for gif, tap gif to insert, it starts a new email draft with that gif.
I expect it to insert the gif in the reply I'm on.

What am I doing wrong?

I concurr with the accidental input of the period which is extremely annoying. What about double tapping the space bar as option for a period which would disable at the same time the period button but leave the option for the 3 other punctuations? Just a thought.

Hello, I would like to request a Samsung theme based for Swiftkey. 

This is the one I'm talking about:

You see it has rounded corners, no shadows, white and silver-ish, and they're simple and beautiful. And its easier to type on them. Please bring it to Swiftkey!

I've searched for every theme available to download and none of them are closed to these.

Please add persolization with Whatsapp. Thank you.
