Swiftkey expired. Other good keyboard ideas?

My Swiftkey trial ran out and i dont feel like paying the $3.99 for the full version. Is there another recommendation you all suggest for a good keyboard? Im suffering without swiftkey :( i really miss the quickness of swiftkey and now i feel lost without it

You like Swiftkey and feel lost without it? Is $3.99 really going to break the bank when it's going towards supporting a product that you are enjoying? Come on, show some support for a great product. ;)
 
Like others have suggested... if you like it, buy it. Support the developers and the work that they put into it. :thumbup:

Alternatively, it goes on sale from time to time. You could wait for one of googles blockbuster sales they have every once in a while. The downside of this approach is you never know when it will happen.
 
I wish the guys at SwiftKey would remove the .com when typing in Web addresses, that's so frustrating to hit that pretty much every time!

Is there a setting for it? I would think that would be an option to disable. I'm testing the S4 keyboard right now so I havent bothered setting up swiftkey yet
 
Hows the s4 one mate?

Takes some getting used to

Did u drag the keyboard onto the screen with multiwindow there?
 
OK OK you all have a point. I guess I'm just not used to paying for apps on Android. Call me spoiled on that point. Ironically I would fork over small $ for apps on my old iPhone. Sorry for sounding like a bit of a whiner lol. I guess $4 isn't bad...

The multiwindow view is tapatalk on top, google music on bottom. The keyboard pops up there by default whenever to select an imput area. It can be moved around

Theres a lot of people who are hesitant to pay for apps. The google play store has nearly as many download as the app market on iOS and yet apples market has 2.5 times the revenue that the google play store does.

Part of that is that many of the apps for android are free, but the larger point is you aren't alone :p

If you like it, you know its worth it :D
 
Lol it took me a LONG time before i linked my bank account to the market mate :thumbup:
I think it was PowerAmp that made me finaly do it. I really dont spend that much on apps and i rarely regret paying for an app :)

Actually, I know how you feel. I was on android back before Google allowed paid apps in the Android Market.. and it really felt weird when paid apps started appearing there.

me too! Just didn't seem right. Don't buy apps for laptop and just figured I deserved the best for free. But after awhile I realized supporting the developers seemed the right thing to do.

JM
 
Oh wow, still using the old keyboard never thought anybody would still use that :)

Yeah i never learned qwerty in school or anythin n i was an expert texter on the old phones. Im still a lot faster with two thumbs on this keyboard than with 2 fingers on a laptop lol :)

I have tried Thumb Keyboard and Kii. None of these are nothing even close to how good SwiftKey is. Try the trial version and you will know what I mean. If you still won't pay the 4 bucks, then just suffer.
