Does anyone use a Swype​ style keyboard? I'm much faster with a swype keyboard than with any other type of keyboard, and this is of course impossible without a flat piece is glass.

I'm using it right now. And boy does it suck ass. I mean, the keyboard itself is great. But it takes a long time too load, which I can live with. The ass-sucking part comes from that goddamn "change keyboard" menu. How does it work? Hold it down? Just tap it? I don't get consistent behavior doing either one. That's assuming it even wants to display in the first place. Every time I have to invoke the fucking thing I give serious thought to just uninstalling it.

For a more consistent behaviour, I deleted the other default iOS keyboards (in Settings) and just left the swype-style one (Google's now, used Swiftkey before). Occasionally I get an iOS keyboard (without any language) but very rarely, I guess some timeout in opening the swype-style keyboard.

Thanks for the tip, I'll give that a go. I really want to like Swype, but the inconsistent behavior is beginning to break the deal.

It's my default keyboard on Android and I experience none of those issues.

Sorry, should have specified iOS. Don't know that it makes a difference, but our two data points say "maybe".
