Try out Swiftkey 2 Beta - Thunderbolt General

Just saw on Android Central and thought it might be worth sharing that Swiftkey is opening up VIP access for the day which will allow downloading of their Swiftkey 2 Beta keyboard. Just go to the link below and click on register, use the promo code #swiftkeyFRIDAY

Once you register you can then download it in the forums(link below). I tried it out and best keyboard I've used so far.

What is new from Beta 1?

I actually prefer the stock HTC keyboard to any other one out there.

Thanks, will do.

It doesn't seem to have predictive capabilities when used in the HTC email application, which is a shame because the predictive capabilities of SwiftKey are awesome.
The backspace-delete key is buggy when used in quickoffice. Hope they fix these bugs 'cause I love this keyboard.
The previous version did not allow you to see what you were typing when used in landscape HTC email on the ThunderBolt. That has now been fixed.
Thanks, Robertus.

Thank you! This looks like something I'll definitely have to try out.

I love Swiftkey. I've been using it since their first Beta last year. I'll have to give this a go, thanks!

SwiftKey is the best keyboard i've used.

Its asking me for a invite code, I used the promo code and did not work

The invite code was only valid for Friday 5/20

Awesome got it!

SOB...this is what I get for not checking XDA 1 day!
Edit: XDA pulls through again and someone has uploaded the APK. See the original post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1088651

The coupon is no longer working. Can someone please provide with a 8 letter code?

Looks like SwiftKey is out of Alpha and headed to the Android Market

Just got an email from them..
Dear Alpha Testers,
Exciting news! We are about to launch SwiftKey Beta on the Android
Market, and you are the first to know
Please UNINSTALL your current version of SwiftKey and head over to the
Market to download the official Beta -- search for "swiftkey".
Also, have a look at our new website at www.swiftkey.net. We are in
the process of upgrading our support framework and look forward to
hearing from you soon.
It has been a pleasure working with you during the Alpha phase. We
will keep you posted on developments here at TouchType through our
newsletter and please do let your friends/colleagues know about
SwiftKey!
Many thanks,
Ben

curious to see if this is as fast as Swype is...not likely, but worth a try
EDIT:
Just installed, it seems really cool..I'll have to unlearn Swype for a day or two to really know, but the word prediction feature is stunningly accurate!!
I can't remember; is SwiftKey a tap-to-type or a Swype-like keyboard? I got that email too, but I've never used it.

its tap to type, but it predicts the word you are going to type, so you never have to type an entire word...very cool predictive tech..

So I decide to do a clean install of Swype via the beta installer... Beta open soon?

And it looks like the mic is finally there!
Good news for those hoping to see it in final builds.

NO ASKING FOR WAREZ.
a thread on the discussion of Swype is fine by me. but the second people start asking for warez we're going to have an issue. so lets keep it clean please.
thanx guys
Hey, guys. The beta is taking sign-ups again! Link in OP.
I got a notification email late last night and swype is taking beta testers for now. I was able to login and download the installer. So if you want to give this a try you need to sign up while the beta is open to tester.
i installed the new installer and 2.15 beta as soon as i got the email,and today its not letting me swype, itll js let me tap the characters in. reboot,then changed input method then changed bacc to swype, it works for a few minutes then the swype is disabled again.is it already expired??
Same thing here swype beta works for a few then not able to swype. Bug i'm guessing.

SwiftKey Flow

Is anyone else really excited for this app? I am an avid SwiftKey user, and this looks like the perfect combination between Swype and SwiftKey. There's a video preview online, and it looks awesome. I'm signed up for beta testing, and I'm anticipating this greatly. Does anyone know when this beta may be released to the VIP members of their forums?

Can't wait, this will be the ultimate keyboard for me
Reports are saying VIP beta will be out in the next couple of weeks. Then full release someone in q1 of 2013

This will be the one keyboard to rule them all. I have switched between TouchPal and Swiftkey just on the swipe like function alone. But Swiftkey has always been better at predicting what you are going to say, even for my bi-lingual self (English/Spanish).
i am really excited. im so sick of the stock keyboard.
The music made it so intense. I was waiting for something to explode.! Lol

This is great - I want it right now, haha. I hope the beta is very usable. Did you beta test SwiftKey 3? Was it pretty solid pre-release?

I couldn't agree more. This keyboard scared me how well it knows my speech patterns. I learn a lot about myself using this keyboard. Can't wait for the swipe abilities!

SwiftKey is awesome, but I never cared for swype. I can touch type with SwiftKey pretty well... thanks to the auto correct. I still signed up for the beta though
Signed up for the beta aswell I love swift key 3
I'm a Swype users, but will definitely switch if SwiftKey pulls this off well. I can't stand touch typing, but I also can't stand how dumb Swype is when it comes to learning my styles. Swype does have the Dragon speech recognition software built-in, though.

Sign up for VIP. You get all betas and are Emailed when available.
I like Swype, but I'm hoping this is a better replacement. I can't stand touch typing. Being able to download right from the market...all they have to do is pull off swyping and I'm in.

Oh they will pull it off! They revolutionized touch typing and they'll revolutionize swiping typing too.

You are setting yourself with that expectation ha SwiftKey takes awhile to introduce customization. Regardless, can't wait to try this out too. Their beta for SwiftKey 3 was awesome so I'm looking forward to this.

Check vip.swiftkey.net for future reference.
You're one of the many people who are also complaining about how Swiftkey gave us a teaser, and haven't followed up yet. To answer your question, the devs are still working on a beta, and keep saying it'll arrive in "the upcoming weeks." At this rate, I'd be surprised if beta was released before christmas, but let's hope I'm wrong
This is gonna be awesome.. I love swiftkey but use swype more often.. swiftkey flow will be the perfect combination!
It hasn't been released yet. Its just "coming soon"
From a marketing standpoint, they definitely have let a little too much time elapse from their teaser to release.
Excited to play with it though. I love the swiping features of the 4.2 keyboard but can't stand the typing side of it (punctuation and longpress take far too long), so I am currently switching back and forth between the two.
I think they should have teased then released within about a week of each other....they jumped the gun a tad I believe
flow
Flow should come out at least with the beta version soon because the 4.2 android keyboard now has swipe
wonder if the 4.2 keyboard made them tweak some things?
i had no idea itd have swype input

I had signed up in the past too. Honestly had forgotten all about it. Is this beta more inclusive?
Hope this is as good as the video on the site shows

Loving this keyboard just wish there was a few extra features like the option to use voice to text like every other keyboard has with the microphone, and while you're typing a word it would suggest other words etc. Looking forward to more updates and seeing this keyboard become even more awesome then it already is!

If you are a newcomer, mention "xda member" in the "Have you beta tested other apps?" field when signing up at http://beta.fleksy.com
We will see to it to take a look at your application as fast as we can.
Cheers!
I applied to join the test program a few months ago and received an email saying that I may be included in future tests but have heard nothing since. I check on a daily basis for an Android release so I am really excited about this beta phase. Can you tell me how I sign up for it please.
Subscribing to thread.
EDIT:
I have just completed the online registration and received the same email as I got last time I registered. Am I doing something wrong?

Just a question, do they send you an email when you get chosen? Just saying that you've been chosen? Or is there another thing that you have to agree to and sign up?

We distribute the beta via TestFlight, so you need create an account once you receive the invitation link via email.
Also, Fleksy Beta comes with a disclaimer, but you don't need to sign it, just play nice
Let us know what you guys think!
I signed up via test flight following the invitation . Have you distributed the beta yet or there's still time?
