I'm in exactly the same boat. 😅

I don't understand how it has been broken for years. I wonder if none of the engineers working on it actually use it themselves? Deleting all of your local data makes it stop crashing for a few weeks, but then you of course also lose all the learned predictions, and eventually it just gets to a point where it just crashes more and more often and you have to delete all the local data again. It sucks.

If only the default Apple keyboard had support for my language, I would ditch SwiftKey forever.

Mine will neither learn nor display corrections. It basically hasn't improved ever, and i don't know how to fix it. If Apple would just let me have a persistent number row on all devices i would never have even considered it. I guess i am wrong to want that though.
