Are you
feeling bored with your default Android keyboard? Want a keyboard with extreme
customisation and magnificent predictions? Thanks to SwiftKey-the best
alternative for your default Android keyboard (I can't use the word alternative
as SwiftKey stands many miles away from the standard keyboard).
Here are some
standalone features that SwiftKey offers:
Superb Prediction Engine:
The thing
I liked the most about SwiftKey is its prediction. It will learn from you and
it becomes smarter over time. Perhaps you could add your Gmail, Google +,
Facebook, Twitter and Evernote accounts to SK so that it can learn your
language skills and predict the words more accurately.
Wide Variety of Themes:
Do you
know why I love Android? Of course, the reason is extreme customisation. SK has
many themes, both free and premium. Also the app provides three layouts for the
keyboard- full, thumb and compact.
Multi Lingual:
SK offers
over 60 languages, including English, French, Spanish, Italian, Hindi, Arab etc.
That's good for someone who knows and uses many languages. You can use up to
three languages on your keyboard at a time.
SwiftKey
Flow:
This thing helps you to type with gesture, instead of tapping the keys.
Just scribble the word over the keyboard and type easily. It's a thing worth a
try.
Cloud Based Sync:
You can
sync your personalisation data over the cloud and can be used in multiple
devices. SwiftKey also download the trending phrases from the Web and type
those words with ease.
Final Words:
SwiftKey
is an award-winning free Android app that makes you in love with the virtual keyboard
interface. The only down side I see right now is that it's prediction accuracy
decreases on lengthy text. That may be fixed over time or as SwiftKey said; it
might become smarter as time evolves.
So, which
is your favorite Android keyboard? Is it SwiftKey or any other one? Please
