Do you use the Swype Keyboard?

[PxuLL]

I really dont find my self using the Word Flow Keyboard I tend to write faster without it.

 

[AV2RY]

Not much, and there isn't option to turn it off..i didnt find. i mess up sometimes typing

 

[ttsoldier]

sometimes... I like it though . just keep forgetting to use it

 

[Vheissu]

I am using it constantly it is so smart that you don't even have to be close and it will get your word right almost all the time.

 

[Gor Badoyan]

Yes, its faster for me

 

[mikeycl]

it's something i started off not using because i forgot it was there and when i tried using it i was very clunky with it.

four days in though and i use it non stop and am getting faster all the time. i now write quicker using it than i do tapping the keys.

 

[sdreamer]

Yup, I definitely get sentences done faster. Two finger pecking seems faster because of all the action that happens but shapewriting is faster IMO for mobile.

 

[Rem97]

I use it all the time, at every opportunity.

 

[Ural Kavraal]

it's great feature. I loved it

 

[Rad Matic]

Big fingers + small phone (520) + Swipe + thumb = 3x speed .

This and Cortana are my two top features. They were the only two things android had that I was missing.

 

[Nimdock]

Sometimes.

I had always claimed I didn't like it, but when I remember to use it I have to say it's nice.

My main "problem" is that I type in two languages so if I get used to it and it will be annoying for the other language. :winktongue:

 

[mike13ftw]

Not so much because it doesn't support my language and it does me sometimes because I can't use space when swiping like Android

 

[Longstone]

constantly

 

[Jazmac]

If you mean Word Flow then yes I use it. There are times when I don't remember I now have it and when I clue it, I'm all over it. I like it and it is one of the few things I missed and now one less reason to return to android.

 

[OsamaAdam98]

Yes,I kind of mastered it on the English keyboard but still learning on the Arabic one. Great feature.

Agreed. The title of the thread is wrong. This is not the Swype keyboard.

It is indeed a keyboard in which you can swipe.

This type of keyboard was one of the last remaining features that I missed from Android, and its implementation in WP8.1 is fantastic.

 

[SpaceyO]

I use it and love it ...when I remember to use it. It's still a completely new thing to me, so I keep forgetting it's there.

Not much, and there isn't option to turn it off..i didnt find. i mess up sometimes typing

There is a way to turn it off, it's just buried a bit:

Settings -> Keyboard -> English (United States) [adjust that part to the your keyboard]

The bottom tickbox is "Type as I swipe through letters"

 

[tk-093]

Yes, we know it is not the Swype keyboard, but one could make the argument that swype, while a brand name, has also become a plain old noun that covers this type of input.

Other examples of licensed brand names that are also now common accepted nouns: Kleenex, Crockpot, Band-Aid, Post-it....
