SwiftKey Q&A: Week 1 - Cursor Control Kalıcı Olarak Yerleştirildi Öne Çıkarılanlar
0 oy 14 yorum

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.

Unable to save language pack to storage

Hi I can't save the language packs on my phone. I've already seen the similar topics on this forum and proposed solutions, but it didn't help. Phone : Samsung Galaxy A6 OS : Android 10 Signed in, all permissions allowed. About the storage, i can't confirm where the app is located, but by default, all my app are installed on the internal storage so i suppose it's installed there. Thank you in advance.

show "äö" and other accents of letters

I don't have the ability with the Swiss French keyboard (qwertz) to show the Swiss German accents, and all others like the Turkish "g~", the s "cedille" (ç for s), and mainly the tremas for all vowels like äö. I had it on the previous version of SwiftKey on my previous phone (Huawei mate 20 lite) but haven't registered the version number. thanks in advance

Swift key spelling is terrible!
0 oy 3 yorum

Please work on getting the spelling to work correctly! 2 very annoying issues that don't happen with the competition. 1. There are many words that don't give a suggestion until you are 95% done typing the word. (like "consistency") 2. Why on earth can't there be structure/consistency for the suggestions? There are times where the incorrect spelling could be on the right, left or middle. Others it's the correct spelling: one word is in the middle, the next it's on the left, etc. This is infuriating and also makes u think you're making a spelling mistake when you're not! Can you not just have correct spelling always on left and suggestions on middle/right?
How do I establish choice emoji predictions, and stop the trip-wire emoji "unlearn" from removing my favorite emoji predictions, as it malfunctions blatantly stressing me cruelly as the "yes" or "no" malfunctions and removes emoji anyway!!! HELP!!
0 oy 1 yorum

In the middle of texting happily, while I tap accepting a specific heart, the system "trip wires" and goes spontaneously ahead and asks me if I want to remove the emoji from the learned list, and upon the "yes" and "no" option, doesn't give me the time needed to reply with my choice, and cruelly goes ahead, and before I even know it, it blatantly says :"learned word (or emoji) is now removed from the list", without even giving me the chance to go back!! 😢 😭 and I loose the choice emoji prediction, and no way of re-teaching my choice prediction!!!! Please help me reteach my choice predictions, and stop the very swift "trip wire" removal of my preferred emoji predictions!!! Please note that I have searched and searched and searched, but there are NO tutorials for this problem, and anyway, the trip wiring problem seems to be a UI failure or malfunction making it extremely user-unfriendly for persons with disabilities or if high age. I feel that this is absolutely a malfunction problem that needs software engineers to correct, and a clear cut way to relearn and re-establish the cruelly removed emoji, as the system "trip wires" and in a matter of split seconds takes it for granted that the emoji has to be removed without my permission!!!!!! It doesn't even accept a "no" for an answer, and leaves me without the choice emoji, and NO INDICATED WAY to re-establish the choice emoji. It clearly malfunctions and does not even listen to a "no" for an answer, but just goes ahead and removes the emoji anyway, like a runaway train with no brakes!! Please help me also with the re-learning process so I could quickly re-establish my lost emoji!!! PLEASE HELP!! NO TUTORIALS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO ADDRESS THIS MALFUNCTION!! Gbu!!
Use SwiftKey with Teams Android App
0 oy 3 yorum

I have SwiftKey selected as my default keyboard on my android phone. When I go into teams and chat the keyboard is the stock teams keyboard and does not behave like SwiftKey. Is there a way to use SwiftKey while using the teams android app? I can not find the option within the app.
Auto-correct not as good as it used to br
1 oy 2 yorum

Auto-correct let's SO MUCH stuff get by it these days... I type quickly and have big fingers, so rely on auto-correct to make that scenario work for me. 'Lately' (months, at least), it hasn't been doing as good of a job as it used to. I'm so frustrated that I'm finally appealing to the dev team. Do you actually read this stuff? Will be shopping for a better solution soon. Been using SwiftKey for many years, but it's not meeting my needs as well as it used to...

Instalé el teclado en android 11 y abre la aplicación pero no se ven ;as letras, sólo la barra superior de predicción de palabras. Además se demora mucho al querer escribir, como que se traba la aplicación. Qué debería hacer para que se muestre todo el teclado? Equipo: Red Magic 6R, Android 11, pais Colombia (57).

Suggestions for toggle options
0 oy 1 yorum

I have skme gripes that my only option to produce these results is to switch to a different keyboard. Here are some options that should be added: When you select a period "." to enter in a decimal number it wont auto snap to the previous word. Example: I made. 54% progress instead of. 9% Another suggestion is to remove certain saved words. I don't need the app auto correcting my correct words to a spelling error I made way too many time. Example, 8n instead of in. Another suggestion, remove the deleting of spaces at the end of the sentence after pressing the return key. In certain apps like reddit if you press the return key to go to a new line it will delete an extra space at the end of the previous line. This causes issues when an app determines a new line based on whether or not there is a space at the end of the last word. Because all are removed, it will be seen as not putting a space or an end line and it will just concat the first word of the next paragraph to the previous word. This may be app specific since it only applies when new line using the return key is not seen as a character. But removing a ton of spaces requires me to mash the space bar 3 or 4 times to make sure there are spaces at the end.
I hate automatic space insertion and deletion.

People have asked for a a toggle tp shut off automatic space insertion and deletion. I had a glimmer of hope when Microsoft took over, but for some reason they stubbornly refuse to give us control to disable autospace.
CAPITALS Changing to lowecase

Why is Swiftkey changing a word in ALL CAPITALS to a first letter Capitalisation. It never used to do this, and I can't find anything in settings. Oh why was this once wonderful app sold to Microsoft so they could screw it up.

Keep getting autocorrected in one of the most commonly used words
1 oy 3 yorum

This is gone on long enough. I correctly type No, and swiftkey will either correct this to Jo or KO.

I have long-pressed Jo and asked it to never predict it again.

Checked data.swiftkey.com and it is NOT there.

Have English, Spanish and Portuguese as my languages and in all three of them "no" is an extremely common word, and "Jo" means absolutely jack shit. I'm getting sick of this. Swiftkey didn't use to be this stupid before the Microsoft purchase.

New device, app missing in list
2 oy 1 yorum

I got a new Android phone and used the SmartSwitch function to copy my apps to the new phone. I can choose (and use) SwiftKey, BUT it is not showing up in the list of applications. If I go to the Play store, I only get one button, to "uninstall all updates for this Android system app", but there is no Open button. I have already spent quite some time configuring the keyboard so I would rather not uninstall/reinstall the app... How can I get it to appear in the app list again?
文字変換時に単語の間にスペースが自動挿入される機能は不要

日本語で文章入力する際に、単語と単語の間や単語と助詞の間にスペースが入る。

英文では単語の後にスペースを入れることが必要ですが、日本語の時にはこの機能は不要です。

この機能の削除をお願いします。

When entering sentences in Japanese, there are spaces between words and between words and particles. In English, it is necessary to put a space after the word, but in Japanese, this function is not necessary. Please remove this function.

Clipboard not saving any clips
0 oy 1 yorum

Hi. I need urgent help. SwiftKey isn't saving anything on its clipboard. I can copy, cut, and paste one thing at a time, but nothing will be listed on the clipboard. See this idiosycrancy on Google Chrome: ibb.co/hCyVYfB I just switched to a new phone a few weeks ago, but this is not at all a new problem. It has happened many times before on my old phone, which I have used since 2013. The problem itself cropped up around 2017, I think. There were no problems on this new phone until a couple of days ago. I dont remember changing any settings, as most of it was done during the first week. Clearing the SwiftKey cache didn't solve the problem. Neither did rebooting the phone. Old phone: OnePlus One New phone: Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro OS: MIUI 12.5.10 (Android 11) SwiftKey version: 7.8.4.5
