14 DAY TRIAL // TouchType, the developer behind the popular SwiftKey Android keyboard application has just announced the availability of SwiftKey X for smartphones and SwiftKey Tablet X.
Both apps are based on the Fluency 2.0 language inference engine, which uses machine learning to predict and correct by observing how a user composes text and then predicts what they will likely type next.
Furthermore, TouchType offers users a cloud-based service using Gmail, Twitter and Facebook, which learns from a user's message history to offer a custom prediction and correction experience.
In addition, SwiftKey Tablet X features an innovative split key layout for thumb typing on the larger touchscreen tablet form factor.
Last but not least, both apps integrate the Touch Interaction Modeling technology that conducts real-time analysis of the user's touchscreen typing precision to improve word accuracy and predictions.
“Our new apps for smartphone and tablet give consumers direct access to the world's most advanced language technology of its kind,” said Jon Reynolds, cofounder and CEO, TouchType Inc.
Other highlights of the applications include:
- Keyboard themes and new customizations for both apps; - Options to choose from more than 20 languages; - Flexibility to enable users to type in up to three languages at once, with auto-correction that is language-aware; - Improved settings and installer user interface.
“We've built SwiftKey X and SwiftKey Tablet X closely with our very passionate community of” users over the last six months to offer an unrivaled touchscreen typing experience. Finally, we're excited to offer it to the market as a whole,” added Reynolds.
SwiftKey X is now available for download from Android Market and Amazon Appstore for $3.99 and is compatible with all smartphones running Android 2.0 or later.
SwiftKey Tablet X can be purchased for $4.99 from Android Market and Amazon Appstore and is compatible with all tablets running Android 2.X/3.X
However, TouchType is running a promotion through July 16 to commemorate the first anniversary of SwiftKey's beta launch and offers both apps at only $1.99 each.
