Hi everyone. I doubt there will be one but I was just wondering if there was a keyboard for the edge screen. The screen not recognising me tapping different keys on the edge is annoying but not enough to get rid of this beautiful phone
 
I've used the Samsung keyboard and the Google keyboard (which I prefer) and neither have had problems like that. I can type reliably all the keys so I'm not sure why you are experiencing problems

Hi, u can adjust and resize the Samsung keyboard to be slightly in the middle so that u don't have to type at the edges as shown in the picture.
 
Not having problems with Swiftkey on my end. It actually stops right before the curves of the edges.

See how the letters on each end slightly curve?

Right now I'm testing the different sizes

How do you do this? I just changed back to the Samsung keyboard to try it

Edit: something tells me on this phone I won't be using Swiftkey. It runs over the edges of the phone and makes input of those keys tricky

Do you have the latest update? I just updated last night. I tried the same theme as you and it still the keyboard stops before the edge curves. Altering the size also affects only the keyboard height.

If it helps, I have version 6.3.4.96 of the app.
 
And that gets weird. Lol. At least you know the next update fixes your problem.

How about checking on a web browser?
 
Is this what you have? It's SwiftKey beta. What do I do uninstall the one and download this one?

Actually no I don't have beta. Beta is one version higher than what I am currently using. Im on 96, beta is 97. But hey at least it worked for you.

Lol I wonder why mine was different. Do they have different country zones for some apps on Android. Either way I'm glad I now have a fully functioning keyboard on this beautiful phone. It was the only thing that was bothering me about it. I notice in the update notes they actually mention the S7 Edge. Haha thanks SwiftKey it's HUGELY appreciated

Swiftkey works perfectly for me, even the keys that wrap around to the curved portion of the screen.
