I've OPPO A52 and everytime I a typo it gives me a red line under it and when I click on it it shows a popup of suggested words from my personal dictinary

How can I disable spellcheck and the popup completely??

 

They have as far as I know never been included in SwiftKey.

They look like this « » and ought to be accessible from some special keys (by long-press).

Thank you.

I have Danish and English language installed and everytime I write "i" is the middle word on my keyboard "I" (capital letter). How do I change this, so "i" is the preferred middle letter on the keyboard?

I think text edit like gboard will help me write and edit faster. Adding app shortcuts like Fleksy would help me open apps faster. Adding option to show emoji bar which is predicted by SwiftKey would make me type emoji faster.

I've been using Swiftkey since it was first introduced. I've loved the keyboard the entire time. However, recently, after accidentally having my phone wipe itself because I forgot my PIN. Yeah, I'm a dumb dumb. After reinstalling everything and going through and setting up Swiftkey again, I can no longer make the keyboard as big as it was before. The largest setting is now only about a third of the screen when just minutes before the largest size took up half my screen. The keys were nice and big and I loved it. 

Is this something that was grandfathered in because I had such early versions of the app? Is there something I am missing? The largest size is quite terrible now.

Not sure if this is a SwiftKey problem or a Messages problem or a Google problem but here it goes.......

I just got this Galaxy S20. On my previous phone (Galaxy S9), when I hit the little "microphone" button on my SwiftKey keyboard to do voice to text when using the Messages App for texting, I would simply start talking and the words I was creating by voice would populate the text field in Messages. I could easily see the words as I spoke. After I was done taking, I'd just hit the send button and I was good to go.

With this S20, when I hit the little microphone button on SwiftKey, a window pops up. It is super annoying for a few reasons. One, that stupid grey box that says "Your audio Will be sent....." blocks the first several words that I am speaking, so I can't see that the text to words is translating correctly. Second, if I stop talking for around a second, the voice to text assumes I'm done speaking and closes, preventing me from adding more words if I hesitate to complete a thought. Third and worst of all, after I'm done talking the words I just spoke don't transfer to the text field in Messages. If I tap the empty text field in messages, SOMETIMES the words I just spoke suddenly appear in the text field- maybe 50% of the time. Supper annoying as half the time I have to repeat the whole voice-to-text process or revert to typing.

On my S9, when I hit the microphone button, I got a different pop-up that didn't block my words as they were spoken, and my words simply transferred directly to the text field in Messages, where I could clearly see them and simply hit "send" when done speaking.

When I use Facebook Messenger and do voice-to-text, I still get the pop up box with the annoying grey "Your audio will be sent......" blocking my words, but when I'm done speaking, at least my words transfer into the empty text box automatically and edit/send as required.

Anyone else having this problem?  I'd post the pictures of the pop up windows but I don't see a way to do that with this forum.

Thanks!

 

Problem: THREE different account IDs! I can't determine how to log into my old SwiftKey Account on my new Android phone!

 

Here is the problem: I've been logged into SwiftKey since 2017 when I got my last mobile phone. Let's say, hypothetically, the e-mail address is: abc@gmail.com 

I click on that e-mail on the account settings/overview of the old phone and it shows me an account ID ending in "AAA" (made-up for simplicity's)

When I now log into the new phone with the Google Login button (I first assumed I used this option in the past but I can't remember!), I log in with my main Google account which goes by abc@gmail.com. Okay, so the Account ID shown on the new phone ends in "BBB". Obviously, since they don't match, it can't be the right account. Trying to type also appears as if it knows nothing about my typing behavior.

 

Okay, so that's possible. Next, I try the Microsoft button to log in, as I expected, an account has been created with that abc@gmail.com username, but I log into outlook to check on it and set a password. Here, the account ID is yet another and ends: in "CCC". 

 

 

I'm running out of ideas. What other way could I have used in the past to login/create my account on SwiftKey? I would very much like to avoid losing all of my data. I don't know how to safely retrieve the cloud data from the old phone. As far as I understand it, there are no local backups or anything I could import myself. Please help.

 

My keyboard keeps randomly Inserting qs into my words. I tried adjusting the size further and furter right thinking the skin below my finger was pressing the q but now there's a sizeable gap and its still randomly throwing qs in here and really pissing me off

I can't seem to be able to get SwiftKey to recognize custom dictionaries and personalized text shortcuts. Anyone run into this?

Hello everyone, I updated my Swiftkey to version 7.6.9.7 and since then I do not have the standard android haptic feedback on my keystrokes anymore. 

I tried to enable it via the settings in swiftkey, but only the swiftkeys own haptic feedback is working and I don't want to use those.
Using the setting "standard android vibration" doesn't do anything anymore. I also tried to restart the phone in case of a bug.

The system vibration via the samsung settings is enabled for all keyboards. 

My android version is Android 10 with the latest security patch update from December.

Thanks!

Is SwiftKey have the smart typing if you misspelled the word it will have underlined like in Samsung keyboard? I want it. Thank you

Looking at the keyboard the qwerty row keys (actually ALL rows) have numbers (in the case of qwerty) or symbols on the "top" of each key. Example: I want to enter "7" using the "u" key but have yet to discover how. What have I missed? I have been using SwiftKey for 2 days now and the Number row is UNchecked, which is my preference. The Number position is Left, also my preference.

I would like the order of symbols to mimic the order from my laptop. In other words, I want to long press 1 and have the option to get the exclamation mark ! key. I key symbols for passwords and associate them in my head with their corresponding number. But the symbols page is layed out differently than a standard laptop keyboard. Is there a way to add symbols to a long press on a number?

I have been using SwiftKey keyboard for a long time but recently I have encountered a wierd error in SwiftKey keyboard while trying to make payments using Gpay. It keeps inputting random numbers when I try to enter any amount... Very difficult to correct it too.

Please add flick input to the Korean Cheonjiin keyboard...

 

It is very inconvenient because there is no flick input...

Please add flick input like Japanese keyboard...

There is ZERO reason for a space to be inserted before a colon. Maybe some symbols are ok with an inserted space but never that one. I spend a lot of effort removing spaces added before dashes as well. This has been a problem for YEARS and I would like an explanation as to why you would insert spaces that have to be removed and why you haven't corrected this. I assure you, there is no justification for this keyboard behavior -- it would be much better for users to have to enter the spaces they want before symbols than to remove the ones they don't -- so please make a fix.

When using a punctuation mark such as colon ":" after inserting space after a word, swiftkey automatically remove the space and connects the punctuation mark with the word.

This was not the case in older versions.
How do we get rid of this behavior?

Also, another thing is that, after any punctuation mark, swiftkey automatically inserts a space after it. In older versions it used to happen only for periods "." , commas "," and semicolons ";"

But now it happens for colon ":" as well which I don't want.

Example for both problems:

While Texting: Life is sad :(

Turns to: Life is sad: (

Please help me fix this as well.

Thank you

The app learns typos like.... Woikd instead of would. Can't see how to delete what this keyboard learns Should be a way to insert common things like a pbkne number with just a few letters and to insert your email without the annoying space

When im typing, randomly the keyboard pops out of its place, goes minimized and stays like that until i touch the back button.

I'm not sure how or why, but I am constantly having random commas inserted into my text. Multiple times every single day. Pretty much every Facebook post or comment, and many messages I send have an extra comma or two, I often catch them but often they slip through. It's extremely annoying..

Please add tagalog to the list of languages

For a while, every time I turn incognito on I get a notification telling me that I am using incognito that covers my keyboard for a few seconds. I am familiar with the incognito mode and I don't want that thing to make me wait every time I use it. Is there any way to disable it? I tried looking in the setting but even the 'disable notifications' button doesn't prevent the disclaimer from popping up.

When my Huawei phone uses swiftkey as default keyboard, and was sync on my laptop thru Multiscreen Collaboration, the letters were typing in a double if I use my laptop to reply on any of messaging apps. When I switched my default keyboard to GKeyboard, everything went well.

How can I add a way, like a button, to easily switch between SwiftKey and handwriting mode, with auto conversion to text? Like the original Samsung keyboard used to have.

So, recently I have bought the new galaxy S20 and with it I have started to use the newest gestures. Everything is beautiful until the moment when I type something in keyboard and want to go "back" immediately without going touching above the keyboard to swipe from the side and then going back, because well the reachability in the area where there is keyboard is the best... The idea is that with the new gestures I can't go back when swiping from the side on the keyboard, it has to be done over it and I'd using whatsapp it may activate response mode on one of the previous messages... Other work around is adding "bring keyboard down" button which just ads bulk to the keyboard and I dont want it.. My sulution is that it would be veeeery nice to have a gesture tu pull down from the top of the keyboard to swipe down thus hiding the key board. Let's say from the middle of all 3 word suggestion "boxes"

From today I'm unable to download a new theme. When I press download it says downloading but never downloads. This happens on a number of themes. I tried installing and uninstalling but that hasn't helped.

Device: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, Android 10 with One UI 2.5

On the inside screen ("tablet" screen of the this foldable phone) the Swiftkey prediction stops working after a few uses: predictions show up properly above the keys but selecting a prediction actually doesn't fix the written erronuous text but only adds a space after the incorrectly typed text. This is clearly a bug.

It always works for one use after a boot, but soon stops working again. So I reboot a lot.

This only happens in Chrome, in the address bar and in any text fields of forms. Restarting the app (force close from settings/apps) and then restarting it from app list does not fix it, only a reboot does. It's problematic that it happens in Chrome because that is the app where I type the most. I cannot change from Chrome since it is forced to be used in our company (a multinational industrial giant) on Windows and I wish to sync the browser with my private Chrome user id on that computer.

I have no experience if prediction works properly on the front screen as I never type on it (it is too narrow to type with adult hands).

The phone has been in use for only two weeks. Removing Switfkey settings (cache + saved data) and the app and reinstallation do not fix the problem.

It is very very annoying, almost enough to stop using Swiftkey and go to the Samsung keyboard. But I'd hate to do that since I've used Swiftkey for a lot of years and it knows my writing very well know. It is great, the rare times it happens to work.

I would make a bug report but cannot find where.The app does not have a feedback option anywhere.
