When I type "god" the primary prediction is "God" but 99% of the time I am not evoking the Christian god, I am not using the word as a proper noun. I've deleted this prediction dozens and dozens of times but it's always the primary prediction,and though it does show "god" on the left prediction it means I have to press it to get it to say what I want when I should just be able to hit space and move on. Is there a fix for this?

I would like to able to turn off the trail in the flow feature. The trail that follows my finger from one key to the next, at least for me blocks the vision of the keyboard. I've used another keyboard that allows me to turn off the trail. I don't use that other keyboard because SwiftKey is better overall. I think it is best out there.

My z and y have been exchanged. Why did it happen and how do I exchange them back.

Is there any shortcut to Switch Between Languages? Every time I have to go to settings to select required Language. Very Lengthy Process.

I use a few different languages with SwiftKey and it works great, but I use English the most. But ever since I added the other languages I communicate in, SwiftKey seems to be suggesting foreign words over common words in English. Like "N°" instead of "No" and "Só" instead of "So". 

Is there a way to hint to SwiftKey to prioritize English words so I stop sending "N°, I don't want to go to that restaurant" to my friends?

Is there a way to bring up handwriting to text with SwiftKey? I feel like I've seen it before but now that I'm looking for it I can't seem to find it.

Hi!
First of all, I'm used to inputting my texts with swype and Samsung stock keyboard, so I was surprised that SwiftKey doesn't offer an option that enables deleting entire words via one short tap on the backspace key after using the "Flow" method. Having to press the backspace continuously or repeatedly everytime "flow" doesn't recognize a word correctly really slows me down a lot, especially as I have more than just English active at the same time.

Besides it really doesn't make much sense to delete just a few letters at a time if "flow" didn't recognize the correct word in the first place.

Please do something about this!

Hi,

I've been trying to save all my swiftkey data from my old S6 to new S8 and it logs into my google account without any issues, it says it is syncing, but the data does not transfer from my old phone to the new one.

I've got quite a lot of swiftkey data from maybe 2 years of useage, so I'd like to sync it if possible.  Can this be done?  I followed your guide below, but this does not work for me, the new phone still has no predicted words, no words completed, no words flowed etc after syncing.  

My google account is set to sync app data if that makes a difference?

Can anyone guide me in the right direction please?

Thanks :)

I can no longer find swiftkey in Google playstore. Have you stopped supporting Android? I use LineageOS 15.1 based on Android 8.1.0 and I have been able to find it and update it until now. If this is the case then I have to find another keyboard. I have used swiftkey since it was released and even paid for it. It's a shame but life goes on.

As stated in the title, I can't find the personalization settings. When I go to accounts, there is only "your account", "account services", and "account data". There are no options for me to add accounts such as twitter, facebook, gmail, etc for SwiftKey to learn from. There are only SwiftKey account options.

Hi,

I'm struggling here to transfer from my Samsung 6 to the new Samsung 8 with all my predictions from the old phone.  First I did a backup sync on my old phone, and then did a backup sync on my new S8.  Nothing happened. Do I need to delete the app on my old phone?  Dose anyone have an answer.

I will say that the tech support is very weak in regards to the response time, and information.  I'm surprised being a Microsoft owned product  that they don't offer better support as I have been waiting more than three days for my answer.

Thanks for your response

I have a tablet that I use SwiftKey on, and just also installed it onto my new smartphone. I made sure backup & sync was enabled on the tablet, then signed into the same account on the phone and told it to sync, but my account data won't load.

I like the flow and I like gestures. Gestures have an option to delete by swiping to the left ⬅, and to hide keyboard by sweeping down ⬇, but I'd like to see a feature where we could move pointer, just by sliding our finger on the keyboard.

Hi
The feature that I find the most annoying, and would like the option to turn off, is the auto move of the cursor to the end of the word. When I want to insert/correct a character, I press on the location within the word, and the cursor moves to the end of the word! I have all the arrow keys displayed at the bottom of the keyboard, so pressing on the location & adjusting with the arrow keys is super fast. Except the cursor jumps to the end of the word! I think this feature was added a couple of years ago. It still gets in the way. I haven't found a fast workaround, so an option to turn it off would be much appreciated.

I'm not able to type the letter "ങ്ക"
I'm always used to get this letter from other suggested words or other 3rd party resources.. pls help

Whenever I am opening the app it is simply loading till the start up and gradually crashes automatically. This is happening right after my upgrade to Android Oreo from Android Nougat on my Note 8. Can anyone please assist me to get it working again?

Update: The app has been working smoothly once again upon a fresh installation. Thanks for the solution, Alpert : )

Unless I am missing it... The long press needs to show both remove and add words to the dictionary

I have experienced many times a desired word is not learned and not added to the dictionary.

Make it easy for me to add.

One paragraph I will type a word, select the autocorrect desired... Next paragraph, same typing of same word... Is not given as a option to select.

And yes app has been reinstalled.

The personalization button in Account has been removed. How do we retrieve data from social media now?

Why does a space appear before a semicolon?

 I do not want any suggestions.  please tell me how to remove these? 

When I attempt to insert a GIF in a text message from the SwiftKey keyboard, it only inserts a URL to the GIF, not the GIF. This started happening after the latest big update (couple days now).

How to highlight, underline and make a word bold in SwiftKey keyboard?

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

How can I disable the multilingual prediction feature (bug).

It is unwanted, uncalled fore, unnecessary, useless, counterproductive, counter-intuitive, and annoying.

Otherwise your app is awesome, until the next update (which hopefully will get rid of this feature) I will be switching to another keyboard, which is a shame.

The QWERTY keyboard disappeared, why?

I'm so dissapointed that I can't download a different style of emojis. The included ones are ugly and may also look interely different when used in different apps. This is a major fault to SwiftKey Keyboard which is really good in all other aspects, the best one out there.

How can I switch to this number pad? 

Hey,

this seriously annoys me to no end sometimes. I use German and English language and it happens so many times that whenever I press space for auto correct/complete it just fill in a word from the other language which makes no sense and it doesn't even exist in that way in the language I currently use.
