Swype is a virtual keyboard for touchscreen smartphones and tablets that allows user to input text by sliding a finger or stylus from the first letter of a word to its last letter, lifting only between words. Swype provides better and faster keyboard experience by using error-correction algorithms and a language model which learn from the way user input text to guess the intended word. It also includes many other features which make it one of the most powerful on-screen keyboard available.

Swype Features:

  • Bilingual support that lets users enter words from two languages at once.
  • Customization options including long-press delay, vibration duration, keyboard height and mini left/right keyboards in landscape mode.
