Swiftkey today unleashed a new version of its beta-only SwiftKey Flow keyboard. Corrections are easier, predictions are more prevalent — and it’s basically just more awesome.
Hit up the VIP forums to get your download on. We’ve got the full changelog after the break.
Download: Swiftkey Flow
- Predictions (and Flow) now on in most places (exceptions: e-mail fields, passwords, anywhere where the app doesn’t behave itself with SK, fields offering their own corrections on Android versions <= 2.2)
- Easier corrections – just tap on the word and SwiftKey will offer you 3 possibilities
- New languages: Thai, Vietnamese, Bosnian, Albanian, Javan, Sundanese (plus those added in 3.1)
- Features from SwiftKey 3.1: Berry theme, split layout in landscape on phones, Armenian, Azerbaijani, Georgian, Hindi, Hinglish, Irish, Macedonian, Spanish (Latin America) and Tagalog
- New layouts for Hindi and Russian
- Ukrainian landscape layout fixed
- Backspacing on to the final word of a multi word prediction (Flow through space) will now give better alternatives
- Typing style now inferred rather than a setting
- Long press delete accelerates after the first word
Bugs fixed:
- Flowing off shift no longer triggers a change in shift state
- Flow no longer gets stuck when you flow off the bottom of a page
- Quick period working after single letter words
- Arrow key repeats
- Learning when sending messages or tabbing between fields with the enter key fixed
- Azeri capital i behaviour corrected
- Estonian will now predict words containing ö
- Fixed force close on Beta predictions
- Flow trace no longer left behind after flowing
- Mounting an SD card will turn predictions off only if SwiftKey language packs are stored on that SD card
- Keyclick sounds no longer doubled
- Haptic duration made consistent with flow on and off
