Swype consuming too much data!


Recommended Posts

Hi. I just noticed today, Swype tends to consume a lot of data! I am running ICS on my phone, and saw that Swype has downloaded over 200MB of data in a span of 1 week!

Is this happening for anyone else?

Not sure on updates data usage but http://handheld.softpedia.com/progChangelog/Swype-Android-Changelog-107707.html lists versions/changelog, perhaps check back if you see its using data and see if there's an update it recieved. Also the Swype forum may help, it's annoying they don't use the Market.

Thanks for that link dancedar. :) I think I know what caused the high download volume! "Enabled language downloads for over 50+ languages". I can't think of any other reason, as I installed Swype around 10 days back only. I tried posting in the forum, just couldn't get this image to upload! Will try again using a link to an image host.

Swype doesn't support ICS properly yet! http://www.androidce...-cream-sandwich

Which might be the reason you're seeing a lot of data transfer... failing connections or something.

Ahh, that also probably explains it! Didn't know that. Thanks for the heads up cybertimer2008. :)
