## What is Smart Swipe Keyboard Pro for iOS8?

A BETTER WAY TO SWIPE YOUR WORDS

Many keyboard apps have invented a way to enter words by scribbling all over the keyboard.  If you think this is good, then you should try this app.  With this app, you simply need to swipe from the first to the last letter of the word.  Then a list of prospective words will appear.  If the list is long, then it will be divided into three groups--top 5 words, the next 20 and the rest.  Each group will be shown in successively smaller fonts and arranged alphabetically.  Most of the time your word will be in the first or second group.

You can even create shortcuts for common phrases such as "See you later."  Once done, this whole phrase can be entered with a single swipe.

We also give you the ability to customize the keyboard's appearance by choosing colors or with background images.

WE DO NOT COLLECT YOUR KEYSTROKE DATA.  Data is collected inside the app to allow the keyboard to adapt to your typing style.  However, the only way to get this data out of the app is by using the "Export" options which place the data in a file which is sent out in a manner of your choosing.

Here are the features in more detail.

Fast text entry:
- Words can be entered by dragging from the first to the last letter
- Common phrases such as 'talk to you later' can be saved and reentered with a drag from one letter to another.  The user can choose any two letter abbreviation
- A history of text field entries is saved and can be shown by dragging from 'Z' to 'X'.  Tap any entry to reenter it.
- Intelligent word prediction with learning
- learning also places frequently used words first
- Number row included above keys
- Arrow buttons to move around your text more efficiently
- Export your custom phrases and usage statistics for use in a Smart swipe keyboard on another device

Customization:
- Choose either a color, color gradient or image as the background for the keyboard
- Choose any font, size or text for the keycap colors
- Invert the keyboard silhouette
- Fun to play around with to create your own cool looking keyboard

Try this app out.  we think you will find this to be the best keyboard ever!

### 4/5 — Great options

*2020-01-03*

It has great potential, it needs to use the standard features other swipe keyboards have established. The method is to draw a trail over the swiped keys. The highlighting it uses is confusing. Since it's highlighting keys I haven't swiped with a rainbow of blinding colors. The usual technique is to pick a word and offer possible replacements. I like the fact that it includes a number row and cursoring options. It includes up and down cursor keys.

### 2/5 — Too cumbersome

*2018-11-26*

Like other reviews say, it takes too long to swipe and choose. It would be better to be able to just swipe and go. The keyboatd also needs  shortcuts to punctuation.

### 1/5 — Worst swipe app ever

*2018-11-13*

There are better apps than this one! Don’t waste your time!!

### 1/5 — Really, a negative-star rating system is needed for THIS app

*2015-12-23*

This app is so bad, I took the time to log in and leave this message. I almost never take the time, but this was more of a public service.

### 1/5 — Not Quite

*2015-12-18*

I love swipe on my Samsung. What this app needs is the auto predict then that with the numbers on a top row would make the best app.

### 2/5 — Too much work

*2015-02-20*

It would take time to learn to swipe from the first letter to the last, skipping all of the ones in between. Then after each swipe, you have to stop to choose which word you want. Takes too long.

### 1/5 — Installed and uninstalled in minutes.

*2014-11-02*

Couldn't make sense of it, very badly explained.

### 5/5 — Speeds up typing

*2014-10-26*

It took a little work. However I figured out how to speed up typing with this app.

### 4/5 — Not practical

*2014-10-23*

It works fine and is fully functional it's just not practical. You can't predict words that precisely  with just 2 letters and that causes more time looking for the word you want then it would take to actually type it.
