About this app

- BETA VERSION -

Welcome to the beta program for Microsoft SwiftKey Keyboard - here you can test early performance updates, new unreleased features, customizations, and special themes. Thanks for helping us make Microsoft SwiftKey the best it can be!

The Microsoft SwiftKey beta app for Android will not replace the regular Microsoft SwiftKey app on your phone, but will be downloaded as a second app so you can switch between the two for comparison.

Beta Expectations

Features in the beta app are in active development and might not work perfectly or ever be released to the main Microsoft SwiftKey app.

Ratings and reviews

This would have hands down been a perfect review, up until I just noticed my image gen option is no longer in view on my keyboard anywhere. I used that feature more than I talk, text, game, and listen to music all put together. It was one of my hobbies, until this happened. I won't be going to Bing either, now they have limited amount of images I can create....that's not cool. So much for my hobby.

EDIT; Reducing to 1 star. I was right about the trajectory; ORIGINAL:This used to be a five star app with an uncanny ability to predict what I wanted to type. Now, it fights with me all the time, insisting on correcting properly-typed text into actual gibberish even when I am repeating a phrase it should have learned via personalization. I can't find anything better at prediction or that has arrow keys, so I am sticking with this for now, but I really don't like this app's current trajectory.

I have used this app for many years and liked it, but sometime in the last few months, the predictions have gotten awful. The context stuff bothers me less, but it's suggesting misspelled words and gibberish the majority of the time. I used to be able to check spellings via the predictions, but now I have to look up words like it's twenty years ago. Technology is supposed to get better, not worse. If it doesn't improve soon, I'm ditching it.
