SwiftKey Q&A: Week 1 - Cursor Control Прикреплено Выделено
-1 проголосовали 16 прокомментировали

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 проголосовали 1 комментарий

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 проголосовали 1 комментарий

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 проголосовали 1 комментарий

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)
[Bug] SwiftKey Beta constantly crashing after new update
2 проголосовали 1 комментарий

SwiftKey Beta got an update recently and a new feature is added which you can now swipe on the delete key to select and delete text. But problem is everytime I try to use the feature it immediately crashes. I managed it work few times but other of that it crashes as soon as the feature activates.
Anzeigefehler der Tastatur bei Android Funktion "Dark Mode erzwingen"
0 проголосовали 1 комментарий

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 проголосовали 1 комментарий

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
0 проголосовали 1 комментарий

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.
Make it more efficient

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

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

long press .. clipboard don't show up
1 голос 1 комментарий

Hi,

Until recently long pressing on a text field would open a popup with options "paste" and "clipboard", so you could rapidly select clipboard and see it's content pasting an element from the clipboard. Now this option seems missing, I only have "paste".

I suspect this happened after the Android 12 upgrade. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra. Swiftkey version 7.9.3.5.

Clipboard is enabled, works tapping on its symbol.. but I would like to have back the shortcut on long press..
Always replace one word with another?
0 проголосовали 3 прокомментировали

I constantly find myself "fat-fingering" the keyboard and typing "fir" when I meant to type "for".

I am hardly ever talking about evergreen coniferous trees in the family Pinaceae.

Can Swiftkey be configured to replace "fir" with "for" the next time I type it by mistake?
Lost everything after reinstalling
0 проголосовали 1 комментарий

I've been using SwiftKey for a very long time (before Microsoft got it if I'm not wrong) but I recently noticed it crashing sometimes, so I checked in the faq and it told me to reinstall the app. But after reinstalling, I found that I lost all my data, even though I'd signed in to my account in the old app and new one. Now I've lost all my settings, predictions and themes. Is there anyways to recover this?

Please let us custom stickers
0 проголосовали 1 комментарий

I love adding black memes in favorites section of stickers so I can create memes when I need directly from built in text adding function in SwiftKey. But when I edit them they change the edited version replaces the blank. So I have to remove and add blank version again everytime which is not convenient. So please let us keep them at default after sending customized sticker like stock in the app. When you edit them and send, they still remain at default version which is I want for favorites section as well. You can maybe add "save changed version" setting or something so we can decide there.
Набор текста

В он-лайн игре при движении персонажа невозможно отправить сообщение в боевой чат: экранная клавиатура сворачивается, едва открывшись. Необходимо отпустить палец, отвечающий за передвижение, набрать и отправить сообщение, только после продолжить движение. Очень прошу исправить это. Сделайте так, чтобы клавиатура не сворачивалась при существующем удержании касания экрана.
Cloud Clipboard not syncing between Windows 11 and SwiftKey on Android
1 голос 1 комментарий

I have been following the SwiftKey support steps here to enable cloud clipboard syncing between my Windows 11 laptop and Android phone (Samsung Galaxy Note 8).

I've ensured that the cloud clipboard and sync settings are enabled on both my phone and PC, but whenever I copy a URL on either device, it doesn't show up in the clipboard history on the other device.

Am I missing something or looking in the wrong place? Please let me know, any help is appreciated! Thank you for your time!
Swiftkey Voice to text not working with upgrade

Received my android ver 12 upgrade and it broke the speech to text feature. When used, the keyboard disappears and brings and slows my phone down until I reboot. My phone is a Samsung 21+. Please fix ASAP. I use this feature all the time.
