Don't add a space after a dot/period
Please deactivate automatic spacing after typing a dot, or add an option to NOT insert a space (" ") after typing a dot/period ("."). It is very annoying, as the dot is a common character in any text field or text area (think input fields and text editors, not just web addresses, code editors and alike).
Although this issue has been reported several times, there's still no reaction from SwiftKey/Microsoft for SEVERAL YEARS. Maybe the issue is not tracked anymore as it is associated with a "permanently deleted user".
jeeeez.. big companies in a nutshell, classic bureaucracy
I fear, this is a useless effort.
They do not seem to be interested too much in the opinion of their users.
During the last few months, they published nearly daily updates introducing hundreds of new languages (that most probably noone needs), but they do not understand a simple problem like the one, which was described here.
For the time being, I banned Swiftkkey from my device, using other alternatives...
Thanks anyway for the initiative!
Yowza + wowza.
I just sent an inquiry before landing on the correct search terms that lead to this thread...had no idea this has been asked about for *years*? 😳
Well, for what it's worth, I did receive an email response from SwiftKey Support on an unrelated topic as recently as mid-December.
So I'll naively hope they provide constructive feedback as a new year's resolution.
I'll post back with an update.
all those years and they've still done nothing?? it's ridiculous how they treat their users. LET US DISABLE THE AUTO SPACING
Hello, while we appreciate your feedback, please refrain from using offensive language. Thank you.
pretty embarrassing that this still hasn't been addressed for years.
Please do this...it's a silly, and annoying black eye on an otherwise impressive app!
Hi Shawn Cecie, thank you for your feedback. We will surely forward your feedback to the team.
I. Too. Would. Like. The. Feature. Removed. Or. At. Least. Have. The. Option. To. Toggle. It. On. Or. Off.
I can't believe this is still an issue. Holy hell...
No kidding 🤬🤬🤬🤬‼‼
The feature to disable auto space was added in Beta 7.9.7.8, but was then removed from Beta 7.9.8.8. Is it coming to the stable sooner or later?
Hello Walter Vogel, The 'Smart Punctuation' option is avaialble on the SwiftKey Beta 7.9.8.8.(SwiftKey Beta app> Tap "Typing"> "Smart Punctuation" ) Could you please let us know, if you are unable to view this option in SwiftKey Beta app? Thank you!
Thank you, I must have missed it or looked in the wrong place. So we can assume it is coming to the stable release soon? :)
Hello Walter Vogel, The 'Smart Punctuation' is our new feature we recently launched in SwiftKey Beta app and it is still under testing. Although we don't have an exact date or time for this update, we can guarantee you that it will be rolled out via an update so make sure that you always have the latest version of the app installed.
Thank you for your support!
