Which device and keyboard are you using?
I mean you really have people looking at your device while typing in passwords?

If you're using Gboard, go to Settings>Keyboard>On-screen Keyboard, then tap the word Gboard (not the toggle). Then Preferences, and turn off the toggle for "Popup on keypress."

Gboard and Samsung.
Yes , they can see password and what i typed for articles.
It is possible.

Because there is not option in setting for dissableing highlight keys.

Because i can see from distance what they type for password, because keys highlight.

If capture movie they can slow motion and find password.

Why all app programmers, desided to remove ability of dissabling highlighting key?

If someone is looking that close at your keyboard while you're typing something, they'll be able to see what letters you're typing regardless of whether the key itself is briefly highlighting. If you're this worried about it, just make sure no one is looking when you type.

Why developers do not insert ability of disabling highlight key?

Why developers do not insert ability of disabling highlight key?

Because if someone is close enough to see what key was highlighted, then they can see what key you pressed whether it highlights or not. They would also have to be right next you. Just turn your body if you're that close to someone.

Also, it's apparently just not the security issue you think it is.

A little paranoia is healthy but, my goodness, keep it reasonable.

Several years ago, i captured move by mobile phone in a govermental office and said to employee her password / and user when she was far from me about 10 meter and she exsited.
It is not paranoia.
The developers, can insert (disable highlight feedback) with several word in program.

You can send feedback to Google (or the developer of any keyboard app) to suggest this feature.

That probably won't affect the key itself lighting up (if that's how Swiftkey works). For Gboard, there's the same option to turn off key pop-ups, but as discussed above, it doesn't affect the key itself lighting up briefly.

As @intelligent_zombie said above :

You can turn off key pop ups in SwiftKey.
Been using SwiftKey from Day 1 with pop ups. Turning it off DOES work.

Right but when you turn off the key pop-ups, do the keys themselves still light up briefly when you tap them? The OP doesn't even want that to happen.

 

[Madd62]

No. They never light up on mine. However I just screen recorded my typing on Color Note and on playback the characters pressed show a small white dot in the centre which would be covered fully by the smallest figure.
(I'll be back in around 10 hours)
Don't think I can upload a short vid and don't remember how to link. No lighting around the character box.

Great, in that case, Swiftkey may be a good solution for the OP!

What you need to do is send that feedback to the developers. They won't always pay attention to feedback left in a review. Look at the details in the app page of the Play Store, and you should be able to find a contact email address for the dev.
