SwiftKey flow beta

Maybe it's me but it didn't hit me with that "great" feeling. If anything, I've been making more corrections than without. Swyping down to the spacebar and continue with the next word doesn't give me the desired results.

What results were you expecting?
 
I'm loving it so far, having used both the Motorola swype style keyboard and the Note 2 continuous keyboard I find it quite easy to use and it is predicting my text quite well so far, have not needed to correct it at all.

Time will tell!
 
It does still need work, they have removed the swipe backwards to delete a word, and also it needs to have the short cut mode like SlideIT has, I use that function a lot.

I was going to try that out this morning but some of what I read turned me off to it. I decided to try out the beta of Swype instead.

So far I think the only thing I hate about it is the handwriting app. You can only write one word at a time.
 
Does it do autocorrect when poking at the keys (not swyping)? I am old fashion and I like keys pounding but I miss auto correct from the iPhone.

Thanks for the heads up man, just DL'd it and I agree with you, it's awesome!

Honestly, I'll still tap-type most of the time, but when I have the s-pen out I usually prefer to 'flow'. Having to manually change between the Samsung Keyboard (with continuous input) when using the S-Pen, and Swiftkey when not, was a real pain. Now I have the best of both worlds in one awesome app!
 
look pretty cool but I really do like the stock Note 2 keyboard (Samsung)... it pretty much does the same or am i missing something?
 
I'm using it now and so far I think it's great. I swiped some very complex words and it recognized the majority of them.

If you do the "flow" You don't have to stop after each word. Just continue the next word by swiping down to the space bar and continue on.

Glad you asked Pete. :D
I'm pretty good at swype so this was a no brainer. Every time I did the flow it was not catching the words I was inputting. Sentences didn't even make sense. Which is why I had to keep making corrections.

Out of all the keyboards with swype functionality I prefer Samsung's. Now what I'm not understanding is Samsung has Swiftkey Flow as part of it's own keyboard but I've never gotten a word to flow.

This is the best keyboard I've ever used! Wow! I've been using Swype for years, but Swiftkey Flow beta is definitely better. The flow-through-space takes a little practice, but it works amazingly well. This is one impressive keyboard!
