SwiftKey Flow public beta


Recommended Posts

Been using Swiftkey for several months now and never have an issue with auto spacing though. installed flow this morning.

Auto space doesn't work if you have 2 or more languages installed

I never had issues with auto space either. I use three languages with mine, and I like it. The only thing I don't like is that it adds extra characters on the keyboard depending on the language enabled, making all of the letters smaller. Annoyingly, it doesn't happen with German (I have to long-press regular characters to go to special ones), but it slaps the Slavic characters on the keyboard itself.

I installed Flow btw, like it so far. Swiping to the left across the keyboard doesn't delete the last word anymore, though :( I honestly can't believe how much I've gotten used to that.

Give me the speed of the stock keyboard + autocorrect capabilities of Swiftkey, and you got yourself a winner. I use Swiftkey, because of the amazing autocorrect capabilities, but it's always slow to initialize and popup on my screen when I click on a text entry field (vs. stock keyboard). I especially love the new 4.2 stock keyboard with Swype like abilities. Swype is just irrelevant now...

How does it compare to the Android 4.2 keyboard? I like it better than Swype already, but I haven't tried this out.

Smart space works on the 4.2 keyboard :p and predictions are quite good

nope, autospace still not working

Thisis is updated to "This is" correctly

in dutch

Ditis is corrected to Doris

uninstall....

It does it the first time you use it but after a while it learns what words and phrases you commonly use and stops making mistakes like that. At least that is how it has worked for me with Swedish and English and I use a lot of English words and phrases when writing in Swedish.

For me I usually have to select the correct word once or twice in the top bar. From my understanding of it the word you type is always there (from the beginning to the left if you haven't used it before and later in the middle so that space works and it moves it suggestion from the middle to the left).

I have gotten used to almost always using the top buttons instead of space as it is as fast and I know that it will insert the correct word. Think of it as having 3 space keys at the top!

When I type it is goes like this (My typing below the 3 buttons, Swedish and English wordlists) :

[D] [Det] [Du]

D

[Di] [Dishonored] [Du]

Di

[Ditt] [Dit] [Det]

Dit

[Ditt] [Diti] [Det]

Diti

[Dishonored] [Ditis] [Ditt]

Ditis

If i press space it inserts Ditis

Sounds like there is some problem with your word/language list. Try sending an email to the developer.

One thing is that I always ignore the learning process from sms/email/facebook/whatever. Might be that if you used that it picked up some strange rules?

Got the email and downloaded Flow this morning but I haven't been able to get the language pack downloaded because I'm guessing their servers are getting hammered right now. Can't use it until I can get a language pack to install. :(

Clear recent apps and try again. It took me a few tries, but managed to do it in the end.

It isnt

It isn't just for Flow. After seeing this I forgot to download Swiftkey after updating my S3 to 4.1.1 on AT&T yesterday so went to download it, and getting the same error. BTW it just seems to be the English pack, lol, I pressed Espanol (US) by accident and it started downloading instantly.

    • Cheap labour, the same as the U.K. China pays their people pittance.
    • Those people that come over here on boats are already in a safe country, if they want to come over here then do so correctly though the right channels. I was born in the U.K, my family that came over here came so via the proper means. My partner came here via the correct channels, she also became a British citizen, she knows more about this country than most of them that was born here, including myself, she worked hard to do what she does. She will stick up for this country and have done a few times, when people from her own part of world have put the U.K down. We are not going to agree, all I said to start with is that maybe Trump has the right idea with this America first thing and maybe we should start doing the same. Maybe not as drastic as what he is doing, but we do need to sort this country out, we need to sort out tech instead of relying on the U.S and others. Again you have not shown why you are so annoyed that we have left the E.U and this is what it is all about? If you don't live in the U.K and live in the E.U are you annoyed that we left your little club? If you live in the U.K and is pro-E.U, then fair enough then I can see how it annoys you. Are you one of these people who lives in the U.K and have a holiday chalet in the E.U and can now only stay there for so long? If so, then that is bad luck. As I have posted before, I have no problem with people coming here to work, as long as they do if via the proper channels. We are out of the E.U, people voted out, and maybe if more people had voted instead of sitting on their backsides the results would have been different. But they like the E.U and our government thought no we would not vote to leave. How wrong they were, surprised me. I expected to wake up in the morning and hear on the radio that we voted to stay. As I said, we are out and have been for 10 years, we are not going to go back in anytime soon if we ever do, so we all need to make the best of how things are. Anyway, this is supposed to be a tech site.
    • Tim Cook: "The US over time began to stop having as many vocational kinds of skills." What's the point of wasting time getting those skills if you can't get a job with them? Good Lord, maybe he and his cohort of CEO's who exported all these jobs to China should just shut the f**k up :D
    • I made a new Cinematic/Trailer for the game, this will be the intro, still a work in progress!  I also updated the Steam page with a ton of new screenshots! 👀 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3925340/Incoherence_Dark_Rooms/
