Hey Allen, I have used Swift Key in the past. I love the Emoji section of the keyboard, as far as the standard qwerty side of the keyboard there is nothing fancy for Voiceover users. It’s simply a normal keyboard. We don’t have access to the swift key swipe functions. The keyboard always seemed to freeze when using VO as well. Once other annoying feature is when typing with it, Swift Key always announces the first predictive text option and there is no way to turn this announcement off.
All in all, it’s accessible but it’s not a great keyboard for VO users.
