Still can’t access through an App Store search on iOS or iTunes, but I can access it through the links on the page here. Weird.

God, was waiting for that keyboard for a while. And so disappointed since there is only Français with Azerty keyboard configuration. No french canadian keyboard using Qwerty keyboard….have to revert back to iphone keyboard 🙁

Swype is AMAZING. I cannot believe we’ve been missing out on it for so long. I’ve been running the GM since last week and have been using the much-improved dictation the majority of the time (while alone mostly), but typing speed is substantially increased with this keyboard.

SwiftKey is pretty accurate especially the swiping. This was typed using the keyboard

Does Swype need to have “Allow Full Access” to enabled for it to work?
I tried Swiftkey and it needs the “Allow Full Access” to be enabled for it to work properly. The concern I have is it will send back info on all my keystrokes to the developer, including CC info, user id and password combinations.

I was confused at first but figured it out. Swype does not even allow you to choose “Allow Full Access” because it does not allow internet access to the keyboard so your keystrokes are safe. Anytime you enter passwords, iOS forces you to use the Apple Keyboard

Just installed Swype. This is a much better option to Swiftkey, which seemed to be slow in comparison.

Well worth the $1 price for Swype.

“This item is not currently available in the Canadian iTunes Store” is the message that comes up on my Mac and my iPhone.

adding swype completely eliminates the ability to input texts
