A.I.type - the new standard for keyboards on smartphones

I purchased this as well. Indeed, it works well - except not with the app I use the most: DOCS TO GO. Is this a known constraint? Oh, well, back to ICS Keyboard. Thanks for any assistance on getting this to work w/DOCS to GO.

We'll look into DOCS TO GO and fix our interfacing with it - if it's fixable - in the coming version (~10 days from now). Thanks!
 
On the other side, however, Swiftkey's autocorrect ability appears to be much more robust while A.I.Text's seems to be a bit haphazard. For example, words like "thuoght" or "helllo" are corrected by Swiftkey, but not by A.I.Text. (In both cases, I type the word and then press space bar).

As the development team appear to be monitoring this thread, one thing I have not been able to figure out is that if I tap on one of the displayed suggestions, sometimes it inserts that suggestion immediately into my text; at other times it only displays an orange highlight around the word. I have to click on the word a second time before it inserts it. Why the difference?

Also one suggestion for improvement would be to add an option for A.I.Text to learn from all of my existing texts and emails as Swiftkey does - so that it already has that knowledge built up.

I am going to continue to put its through its paces and see how much it "learns" by the end of my trial period.

1. We are continuously improving our algorithms. The robustness you are describing is indeed a goal, and we'll get there soon.

2. Having to click a suggestion twice - that's weird. We'll check that. Has anyone else experienced it?

3. Learning from emails and SMS - you are right. We will get there eventually (so much to do... so little time... :)).

Thanks for the feedback and suggestions! We appreciate it!


Noam

I have also experienced #2.

When tapping a suggestion, sometimes instead of selecting the word, it will highlight the word orange and you have to tap a second time to select it.

Glad I am not the only one experiencing this! I have tried to figure out the circumstances under which it occurs - but only seems to happen every 20-30 words and appears random. It can occur on any word in the suggestion list and does not seem to have anything to do with how long I hold my finger on the suggestion. I have both English and Spanish installed, and have so far only seen it happen when using English - but that could be because have not written much in Spanish so far.

If I can identify anything else to assist in debugging, I will post.

Thanks! We'll look into it first thing Sunday morning :)
 
So far so good. My only complaint would be that when deleting a word by swiping right to left it always brings up a row of 5 different punctuation choices. I just want to delete the word, now I have to touch the keyboard again to make this row disappear...kind of annoying. But I'm going to give it the 15 days and make a decision then.

It's solved in version 1.7.2, to be released in... let's see... 23 minutes!

Awesome! One more suggestion, maybe you're already aware, but auto space after inserting punctuation would seal the deal. Thanks for keeping an eye on this thread, shows you care about your product.

I 2nd this! Not sure if this would screw with your current algorithm setup, but autospace after punctuation would be amazing.

Something I just noticed. I am still on 1.7.1 and haven't encountered the swiping delete punctuation thing as mentioned above. Will post pics in a min. Darn tapatalk won't let me upload png files, which are how screenshots are saved on the GNex.
