Recommend me an android keyboard.

[Salty seadog]

I used to use Swype keyboard and it was fantastic but no longer available.

I prefer to swype rather than tap type on the phone. I have been using Swiftkey but it is awful and just doesn't come up with the words I want a lot of time and keeps selecting special characters etc.

So, your recommendations please.

Hmm, was going to recommend SwiftKey
It works well for me, but ....

Lol. I too like SwiftKey, but I don't use the swipe mode.

Yes, it's the swipe mode I need to work well. Do you swipe @Fnaar ?

Yep, more often than not. It wasn't very good at first, but it seems to have 'learned' the words I use most often.

Hmmm, I've had it a good 3-4 months now.

I'm a non-swiping SwiftKey user too and it is getting scarily good at predicting what I want to type. So much so in fact that I realise I should stop being such a predictable and boring old f*rt!

CJ: "So, le..."

SK: "let's meet at"?

SK: "Wetherspoons"?

CJ: "at ...

SK: "14:30"?

CJ: "for ..."

SK: "multiple refills"?

SK: "of coffee"?

SK: "and biscuits"?

SwiftKey will improve as it learns your frequently used vocabulary and names etc. Eventually it will predict whole frequently used phrases.
