Microsoft SwiftKey AI Keyboard 4+

Thanks Microsoft! :) :) :) :) 🥳🥳🥳

Swiftkey now know my exact location and has access to my entire photo library. I feel really safe knowing that a company as trustworthy as Microsoft knows my exact location. I also feel great that you can scan my entire photo library whenever you feel like it. They really need to know all this information to give me a keyboard!

What a great privacy respecting company you are!!!!!!!!!!!!! °x°

Swipe typing is often inaccurate and voice typing is inconsistent and cumbersome

Every sentence I swipe on my iPad there are typically about three or more words that it doesn't guess correctly. G board seems to be much better so I'll switch back to that. I left a review to this effect years ago and was hoping it would be better but nothing seems to have changed, unfortunately. Generally it's terrible at guessing words that are more than five letters unless I try to be much more precise with selecting the letters as I swipe, which I don't have to do with G board

Voice typing seems to be quite good when it actually works, except when it doesn't. I just tried to activate it about a dozen times while writing the last sentence and it was very buggy and cumbersome and didn't respond to voice at all:
- it always switches to a new window, then I have to tap in the top left corner.
- it seems like while trying to activate it during this paragraph, it either didn't open the window after tapping back,or the mic icon would appear but text didn't appear after speaking.

iPad version keeps crashing/closing

I have the latest version installed, but my iPad keeps closing the keyboard and showing the standard keyboard mid swipe. Can’t even get through a small sentence, very frustrating. This happens on all apps. I am a long time user and this seems to be recent, but I am so sick of it. If the built in Apple version could swipe in full width view, I would switch to it permanently. I literally get 5seconds and it closes and the standard apple keyboard appears. Even if I am not typing, just having the keyboard show, 5seconds later it closes. It is unusable. I removed all other keyboards and only had one listed - Swiftkey. The same problem, I do not need to do anything and it closes/crashes and a default keyboard is shown without a method to switch it back. To add to this, installing the Google’s GBoard keyboard, and it just works without an issue, even with other keyboards installed - this is a Swiftkey issue based on this alone.

Installed the new release and tried again this morning (19th Aug 2024), same issue it crashes and closes without actually doing anything (iPad Pro 11” 3rd Gen, latest IOS release). Re-enabling GBoard until it is fixed.
