Just got Xperia XZ but was dismayed to find it came with swiftkey as default keyboard. After 3 days frustrating use, pleased I found this thread after a bit of googling - have now found and downloaded the apk file and installed Sony's Xperia Keyboard and disabled hated swiftkey. Someone at Sony/Xperia clearly thought having swiftkey as default keyboard was a good idea which is all fine and dandy BUT give users the option to use the Xperia Keyboard instead and install in on phone. Don't leave it to users to have to do this themselves. Not everyone is savvy enough/comfortable installing stuff on their phones, other than via Google Play. (Thankfully I am, otherwise I'd be stuck with Swiftkey!)

PLEASE give back the Xperia keyboard! Or can someone suggest a close alternative, that won't act like a keylogger or something? Swiftkey doesn't seem to have a way to configure it, and it randomly adds spaces or wrong letters as I'm typing! I'm a very fast typer on the Xperia keyboard with no errors and great dictionary built up (I type in many languages, often mixing them in one sentence) but with Swiftkey I feel like I have the dexterity of a 2 year old

Hi, I used to like swiftkey until your freakin update ruined it! First and foremost I dont like enabling the language since it would aslo automatically set up the autocorrect and its a hassle. So I am not doing it. Before this language notification oly appears in the middle on that white space beside that three lines. But now it created a whole new space on top with that gray background and I can barely see what i am typing and above all its now occupying over half of my screen. So please diasable this non sense gray box that says "no keyboard language is set up SELECT LANGUAGE". I AM EVEN HAVIMG A HARD TIME WHILE TYPING THIS MESSAGE! THIS IS RIDICULIOS! Or perhaps this is your one way of saying i should use another keyboard app. Is that right? Resolve this ASAP!

have mostly had Xperia Android phones, but recently moved back to an Xperia XZ from a Samsung galaxy S7. I chose the Samsung because you removed the magnetic charging port... but the keyboard on the Samsung was appalling.

It doesn't happen with Gboard or the default keyboard because they'reintegrated with the Android system, and they have the access to thesettings like "personal dictionary" in Android system; meanwhileSwiftKey is a 3rd party app, it does not have the system level access.That's why it cannot identify the languages other than system defaultlanguage. In other words, Google Spell Checker works with Gboard butnot SwiftKey.

You mentioned on another phone - it works ( aka Swiftkey Italian isnt underlined by spellchecker ) Also try putting swiftkey as default keyboard and there's a language selection ,where you put in Italian as your 1st language and Eng as second ( do that my removing all languages and then add Italian 1st then Eng )

Hi. I'm using swiftkey keyboard. How do I made some custom shortcut? For example, I can type home1 for home adress, home2 for home detail, etc. But not autocorrect so that I can still manually choose the text
