Word to Emoji Rules Changing? On phone

Hey, 2 days ago I downloaded to try "Thumb-key" ad I discovered it from here, it looked fun and is fun. Now I just gave a problem which is for me personally pretty annoying. I use Signal and usually when writing to my SO, I write :heart: to get a ❤️ or I write :kiss: to get a 💋 emoji. And for some reasons since I downloaded a new keyboard, no matter which I use, the rules for Word to Emoji have changed? And I can't manage to write any of those?

On PC those still work, and I am confused on how adding one keyboard changed it all? (OnePlus 7 Pro -A11)

have you tried changing back to the other keyboard, there is usually a button in the bottom left. a lot of emoji shorthands are actually keyboard features.

I did try and also uninstalled the app of the new keyboard to try, but It was unsuccessful

In the keyboard settings (aosp,gboard,etc) usually there's an option for enabling/disabaling suggestions. That might solve the issue.

I sadly didn't find it, so instead I made my own macro's !

I'm not exactly sure about what you mean, but I think my app can help you with that. See -> https://lemmy.world/post/831242

And using your app is going wonderfully great! I found my ideal board to write with and I'm having a lot of fun without slowing down too much!
