Swiftkey opening slowly (due to RAM problems?)

[swa100]

Hey all,

I'm using swiftkey on my galaxy s6 and sometimes when I press a textbox in an app like whatsapp or hangouts it takes a while before the keyboard pops up. Also, sometimes it has to reload the dictionary after the keyboard opens (this takes just around a second). Are there more people with this problem? I didn't had this on my Xperia Z1. Is this problem RAM related? Because of the aggressive app killing on the s6.

I'd like to hear from you guys!'

When I'm opening the keyboard it sometimes says "loading predictions". That's what I mean with "reload the dictionary".

No issues at all with SwiftKey

What firmware version are you on? Is it the newest? Because I believe the issue is with the newest Samsung firmware. It has nothing to do with the hardware

as much as this phone lags I think this is an issue with the app. It did the same on my m8 and that phone never lagged with any other app. It was the reason I stopped using Swiftkey and I now prefer Google over it as the swipe text is way better on that

I also switched from Swiftkey to Google because of performance. That was on m7 and I tried again on S6E and, once again, preferred Google Keyboard due to performance. A shame though as Swiftkey used to be so good. Having said all that, perhaps it wouldn't suck so bad if this phone had better ram management.

I have the same issues with SwiftKey. I am running on latest Samsung 5.1.1 firmware. Sometimes everything seems to be fine and sometimes it takes years to pop up. I have no clue why. Already tried to reinstall, clear the app cache, no effect.

Flash this latest stock 5.1.1 ROM via odin to improve your RAM problems.

Yes I'm on the latest firmware (BOGB). Ram management actually seems a little better then before. But SwiftKey isn't working as it should.

I'm on the latest Dutch firmware (BOGB). That one should be latest.

 

[swa100]

Can anyone confirm that the same problems occur with the latest beta version of SwiftKey?

 

[Тhe Dark Knight]

I confirm that the bug has appeared with latest firmware. Yes, the new firmware has much better multitasking and ram management but this bug with swiftkey is so annoying.

I've got the same issue since a few days. I have an S6 with stock firmware running (5.1.1) and SwiftKey 5.3.4.67
Any workaround available already?

 

[Kilvearn]

Same problem here... Let's hope for a quick update from Samsung or SwiftKey...

I am really feeling like bought ****tiest phone. Sucks bad. My nexus 5 Galaxy s3 was better. Always face issue of keyboard. Feels little went backwards

Hey Guys, you're not alone and Swiftkey is notified about the issue but they're not sure if they can solve this problem. Take a look in the forum here: https://vip.swiftkey.com/index.php?/topic/12733-slow-showing-keyboard-on-s6-bug-reported/
But I think the biggest chance of getting this fixed is to inform Samsung about this problem and wait for a fix (if possible). Does anyone know if they are also already informed?

I have the same problem I live. I'm going crazy.. I sent it to the service. Load the software and they sent it back. The problem still continues.

 

[bcik]

Do you have any news friends?

 

[emptyragnarok]

No news.. I updated the firmware to latest version. Still same problem!

Unfortunately, the last update does not solve the problem. Maybe with the next update the problem is solved.
