The Daily App: SwiftKey 3 Tablet For Android

By Edward J. Correia, CRN November 16, 2012

What keeps the tablet from gaining prominence as a content creator is exactly what today's Daily App is designed to address. The aptly named SwiftKey 3 Tablet Keyboard for Android tablets is a soft keyboard that learns a person's typing habits and common mistakes and makes corrections on the fly.

The $3.99 app will soon pay for itself in the time it saves by eliminating the backpedaling that plagues most software keyboards. The SwiftKey 3 Tablet Keyboard not only offers spelling-corrected words as you type but also adapts to missed keys or spaces and actually predicts what words you're about to type. According to developer SwiftKey, the more it's used the better it gets due to its ability to retain the word-usage patterns of its users. It supports dozens of languages, and for the multilingual, each license permits as many as three languages to be active at once. It also works on Android phones. An optional split keyboard (shown) is for thumb typing (tablets only).
