Product Description
SwiftKey X for smartphones builds on TouchType’s SwiftKey keyboard to offer cloud personalization, a new prediction engine, and a host of new UI improvements.
Using artificial intelligence breakthroughs, the SwiftKey X keyboard accurately predicts your most likely next word based on what you’ve already written. It can also scan your sent messages, and learn as you use it to make predictions even more accurately over time. The more you get to know your SwiftKey keyboard, the more it will get to know you.
Intelligent Next-Word Prediction
SwiftKey X Keyboard distinguishes itself from the other Android keyboards because of its incredibly accurate next-word prediction. SwiftKey X has proven in tests that about one-third of next words are predicted accurately without even typing a single letter. It seems crazy to say that it reads your mind, but does it?
How does it do that?
SwiftKey X doesn’t actually read your mind. It so accurately predicts your next word using TouchType’s Fluency Prediction Engine. It analyzes billions of background texts, user-specific vocabulary, and even how you use language when you send a text message, e-mail, or post on Facebook and Twitter. SwiftKey X supports nine languages, and you may download as many as you would like. It will support the use of three languages simultaneously.
Cloud-based Personalization
Are you a precise and careful typist, or a rapid and less accurate one? SwiftKey X has fine-tuned typing styles to match the way you use your phone in order to maximize efficiency and make typing messages a breeze.
SwiftKey X dynamically adapts the touch-sensitive area of its keys, based on your actual touchscreen input actions, resulting in predictions that are based not just on the words you tend to use, but also the way you type.
Advanced Error Correction
It’s easy to add and remove words from your dynamic language module. SwiftKey X remembers words you use frequently, and you can simply press and hold words you want removed. As SwiftKey X gets to know you, it will even correct your mistakes as accurately as it predicts your next word. Misspelling will become a thing of the past. SwiftKey X will even add those fancy accents in addition to your everyday apostrophe and hyphen.
SwiftKey X will enhance your productivity and eliminate your texting frustration. Start letting your keyboard work for you.
