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

The learning engine in this thing is horrible. It doesn't learn the swipe or correct accurate words based on context. I feel like it's one big guessing game. Typing more than one word works depending on the words you use. Same letters in a row are likely to fail. When it does work, it feels nice, but also short lived. Suggestions are also trash.

have been using the app for about a decade or so. The keyboard always stays up to date on "new" things (like new emojis and stuff), but there are some small annoying things (master dictionary list, etc.) that could be added, or fixed (like assuming a common typo is a word and adding it to the dictionary.... why???) overall, I do like it more than the other options, I think, but only slightly. I like this keyboard, but the biggest thing keeping my loyalty is laziness.

Hey! The link posted in the SwiftKey Beta description to file bugs keeps re-routing us away to a generic SwiftKey landing/home page. Posting bug here: When I downloaded the beta version, the Voice Texting feature that allowed for typing while speaking was amazing (esp. for editing)!! 2 weeks later, this feature disappears. What happens now is a very disjointed experience where every time the user has to make an edit (veeerry often) they have to re-initiate Voice to Text! This is so frustrating.
