SwiftKey Problem?

[Dannyh1991]

Hi, I'm currently using SwiftKey as I have since the S7 and have noticed something that keeps happening.

Whenever I plug the charger in, the keyboard size goes really small.

I use on the smallest setting, yet when I plug in the phone to charge, it goes tiny... I can change it to Medium to get it right... But then when the phone corrects itself, medium becomes massive so I have to change it to smallest again.

Try uninstalling and reinstalling the app.

That's wild. SwiftKey on mine has been comically large, even on the smallest setting. Hadn't taken the time to re-install or chase it. After reading the OP, I set my S10 on the wireless pad and opened up message to start a test message, and like you mentioned, it shrinks; however, on mine it shrunk it down to what I would consider normal. Gotta love little app glitches.

Please email the SwiftKey app developer (available in app information in Play Store) so that they can push an update to fix the problem.
Thanks

I think Iv noticed what's causing it, it's when for some reason the screen goes back into FHD.. But I can't find what's causing it to do that because power settings shouldn't be doing it

What is your power mode set to under Settings - Device Care - Battery?

 

[Dannyh1991]

These are the settings I hace, I have every power mode to use WQHD and none of the settings that are on say that they will change the screen resolution.

For sizing issues, try SwiftKey Beta. They just implemented a new sizing feature that allows you to manually size the keyboard to any size you like by dragging it to the size you like. So awesome. I haven't had any problems with size changes when charging either.

I think there's a bug with that Adaptive Power Saving option in that it can affect screen resolution. Had that enabled shortly after getting the phone and had the same thing happen with SwiftKey

Only issue I've had with SwiftKey on the S10 is an odd, and very specific situation where I can't use voice-to-text while leaving a review on Google. It just suddenly goes super sluggish and freezes. So weird. It's been flawless every other time.

Beta is a little weird in landscape mode on my S10+. I can't resize in landscape and it looks weird in the stock messaging app. I'm sure it will get ironed out.

Using G Board no issue at all.

Using G Board no issue at all.

The problem with G Board is how horrible text prediction is. I gave it a full 2 weeks and just couldn't deal with it anymore.

Yeah exactly. I just couldn't stay with Gboard. Also, I love the arrow keys with SwiftKey. I've tried like 10 different keyboards and Siwftkey is the best for me. I'm sure they will work out the issues with the S10 models quickly.

I'll have to try swiftkey again when I get my phone.

I'm using SwiftKey beta on my S10 with no problems however I feel it's a it's a bit slower than on previous phone

Slower how? Loading? Lag in key presses? Curious as I was considering trying the beta.

Mine works well, but the odd sizing is kinda annoying. I figured out a little more detail on mine. I have my SwiftKey set to the smallest size in the options. If I run with WQHD+ resolution, the keyboard is comically large (like half the screen large). If the phone is set to FHD+, the keyboard looks "normal" size to me (i.e. same size as it used to be on my S8). Found this out during one of the random occurrences where the phone reset itself to FHD+, as reported in a few other threads.

 

[ABOSWORTH007]

Just try beta out. As I mentioned, you can manually adjust the size to whatever size you want. In my experience, it's only working properly in portrait mode but that's how we generally type anyway. I don't think it's slow or laggy at all. I don't even use the regular version of SwiftKey anymore. Just Beta.

 

[Dannyh1991]

Iv just changed the power mode to medium and adaptive.. I think this way the resolution is locked onto WQHD+ so prevents the resolution changing which is causing the keyboard to change size.
