Swiftkey keyboard if free on Amazon Market

It's got a lot of cool features, and I like it better than the Samsung keyboard.
You can check it out here.
Edit: free today 7/21

Yea, I got it today. Seems to work pretty well.

This is the best keyboard available in my opinion. I've tried swype and better keyboard even go keyboard and I keep coming back to SwiftKey.
Get it while it's free, one of the best apps i've seen offered free on the amazon appstore.

swiftkey is awesome

swype is more gooder.

I've been using swype but grabbed this one today to try out for a few days. So far I'm liking it

Swype is a solid keyboard, but I just can't bring myself to swype. I'd rather throw the phone sideways and text in landscape. Although, most keyboards are easier to use on this 4.5" screen!

This is probably the best keyboard ever I bought it a long time ago it even works perfect on this old school motor backdrop

If you like it check out swift key x beta I believe it called on the market. It's a newer version of it and has some pretty sick keyboard themes compared to this one. It is also free.

I didn't like it. I'm going back to the Gingerbread Keyboard.

Since I installed this keyboard my battery life seems to have lowered, anybody experience anything similar?

Swiftkey X is awesome,

I had it and got it in the free app a day deal but uninstalled it right after. It used around 30 or so mb of ram.

I wanted to love this keyboard, and for the most part I do. However, I keep having this problem where it saves a period to the end of each word. Say, if I were to finish a sentence with the word "hotdog" I would type "hotdog." From then on, every time I type "hotdog" and hit the space key, it auto-corrects to "hotdog. " Does anyone else have this issue? Any ideas on disabling it? I've tried all of the different space function settings, but nothing fixes it. Otherwise, I would love this app.
I'm using the Gingerbread keyboard now with Infused V2B3, and it's working really well for me, but I think that without the aforementioned issue SwiftKey X would be at the top of my list.

Does this happen on every app? I ask this because some input methods used to have bugs on Google+.
Maybe you can try enabling and disabling 'Quick "."' in 'Advanced'?

I haven't noticed this at all. It took a bit to get it to work the way I would expect. My settings:
Typing style: precise
Spacebar will...: always insert a space
Quick ".": checked
All the rest are defaults

[APP] NEW Swiftkey Beta 3 (30/05/2012) [Phone and Tablet version]

Hey there SwiftKey fans,
We have a brand new Beta for you to try out! As always, we have made changes based on feedback from our VIPs, and we want to thank them for helping us to make this version of SwiftKey 3 Beta the best yet.
This new Beta has:
Improved prediction algorithms
Better, more consistent punctuation key behavior
Smarter Smart Space functionality (which will make it easier to enter email addresses etc)
A refined experience in Google Chrome Beta
Fixed missing predictions on the longpress of @ and .com
Improved gestures
Eliminated lag on letter pop-ups
Various other minor bug fixes and usability improvements
You can download the new Beta for your phone here: http://vip.swiftkey.net/sk3beta , or for your tablet here: http://vip.swiftkey.net/sk3tabletbeta

Thanks for this, looks nice, I'm using it to type this message, soo much better than the crappy old version!

Yes! but swiftkey servers are down... I'm trying to access. I'll update the tablet version as soon as i can.

Thanks I'm waiting for hours because swift key site its Down.

No gestures?
Thanks for the share!
What does everyone think about the beta? I love the new themes and bigger space bar, but having no gestures and all punctuation on the same button having me scratch my head. I loved the swipe to delete a whole word feature!

Thanks for the link. Have been trying to grab this since I read about it earlier, with no luck from the SK site.

Totally genius app!!!love it like he'll!

Thanks for the downloads. using it right now to type out this post. The layout on the keyboard is great but the app seems to lag a bit.
Sent from my SGH-T989

Thanx, been waiting to try this.

Does anyone know if there's a way to stop the "Select Input Notification" to constantly pop up while using this? I've looked thru the SwiftKey settings to no avail. It's super annoying and distracting.

Anyway to change the period to a question mark? They had a question mark there before. Now it takes so long to add commas and question marks
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk

I really hope they put back in the long-press duration setting. I find this one of the most appealing parts of SwiftKey.

Will they update SwiftKey X to SwiftKey 3 or do we need to buy another keyboard?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

I dont known but you can have two kbs installed and choose one of them. In my list of kbs appears "Swiftkey X" and Swiftkey 3 Beta".
Frank

Yea, I hope I don't need to buy another keyboard for what should be enough to justify as just an update.
As as for the lag, that seems to have gotten a lot better after switching themes from cobalt to holo. Still is kind of laggy though.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

There are two points that i dont like at all about last beta. The short size of letters/simbols amb my clear theme (like ics) that does not appear in theme list.
Enviado gracias a la magia del hombre blanco

Also, when you long press the period to access the punctuation, the first option after pressing should be a comma. Why should anyone long press the period only to select period.

It doesn't have the swype feature though.
Sent from my Supercharged and KaK'd HTC One X

I went ahead and downloaded swype to replace the HTC keyboard. Why? Namely because the HTC keyboard's trace feature didn't work in certain places (browser URL bar for one) and I had some issues with the way it added a space and didn't, seemingly on a random basis. I guess some words are good enough for a space and others aren't?

where did you download swype from? i tried installing the latest beta but it said the screen resolution is not supported?

Through the normal Swype website. The resolution issue is a real one. When you install it it works fine, but one you restart the phone, that's when you'll see the resolution problem. There's a thread about it somewhere in the One X area.

I've seen the resolution issue, all I do is just reboot swype using the swype installer when it crops up, then it goes back to normal. As far as I'm concerned it's not a major issue (unlike the multitasking) to me.

SwiftKey 3 Beta

If anyone has used SwiftKey X then you'll like SwiftKey 3. Has two new themes that would go great with ICS themes. You can get the new keyboard from the Market.

This works absolutely perfect thanks for the heads up

Bought it way back when they had it for 99cents, Definitely nice to see some new changes.

Does anybody else have a little keyboard symbol that pops up in the notification bar every time they type something with the SK keyboard? It goes away once you're done typing. Dragging the notification bar down shows that the symbol corresponds to "set input method." Clicking it takes you to the languages and input settings.
I've already configured all of that through SK. Any way to make it stop?

Thanks for the heads up on this. I've purchased both SwiftKey X for my Infuse and SwiftKey X Tablet for my HTC Flyer. In my opinion, it's one of the best Android keyboards out right now. I'll definitely give the beta a look.
Edit: Looks like the update is in the Play Store now and is free for those who paid for SK X. Sweet.

[App] SwiftKey Flow beta- The nextgen keypad !

The nextgen keypad from the SwiftKey team is finally out for the users. But its still in its beta version. So you folks can give it a try. Its definitely worth a shot. An awesome keypad !
SwiftKey Flow adds support for gesture-based typing, which means you can type by sliding your finger from one key to another without lifting it off the screen. The best feature is that you can type whole sentences without lifting your finger off the screen ! Thats cool is it not.
Download link-
Click Here

download link not working for me plz

Without Chinese language!

I must admit that the prediction is really good, even with the slide gesture (compared to other swyping keyboard i tried)

I quite like the new keyboard on fact I'm using it right now! The only small niggle is that the swype to delete is now gone.

Great app. Thanks for the suggestion.
If I buy Swiftkey3 will I have access to the Flow (not beta) when it realeases?

I noticed that long press works, it just disrupts the general flow of typing, especially when the rest of the experience is butter smooth

No, I don't think so. SwiftKey flow is a completely new keypad.

I am sure hope that it will be merged into the current SwiftKey. It would suck to have to pay for another keyboard

ehhhh
As a swype user, I liked that it seemed like swype, but it's not the same. The predictions were a bit wonky and I'd have to correct it too often. I feel like it still caters more to the "tapper" crowd. A good app for what is advertises to be, just not for me.

Just tested and it is crap compared to stock Android 4.2
