SwiftKey Predictive Keyboard Arrives On iOS In New Evernote-Integrated App
January 30, 2014
SwiftKey, the predictive keyboard that's quite popular among Android users, has finally arrived on iOS. Not as a systemwide keyboard, though, considering that Apple still forbids such a keyboard to be integrated into iOS by third-party developers. Instead, SwiftKey comes to iOS in the form of a standalone note-taking app called SwiftKey Note.
As leaked in a photo last week, SwiftKey Note features a keyboard extension that contains SwiftKey's smart suggestions, including predictions of next words and corrections for misspellings.
While SwiftKey's signature Flow swipe-based input method is notably missing in the app, SwiftKey Note does offer the following features:

SwiftKey recommends connecting your Evernote account to SwiftKey Note not only for automatically syncing notes but also for improving word suggestions based on your existing notes.

SwiftKey Note is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad running iOS 6.0 or later. Note, though, that formatting is supported on iOS 7.0 or later only. [gallery link="file" order="DESC"]
