I'd rather do that than tap/type but swiping is so ingrained into my usage of phones and tablets now I don't even make use of the handwriting ability except on screen shots. Swiping is like writing in cursive to my hand/brain coordination and thankfully Swype reads my sloppy attempts better than my teachers ever could.
Agreed. I'm kinda sad to admit it, but my trial with Swype has been going much better than my experience with swiftkey has been since I switched to the Note 4 or even before that.
I swipe on swiftkey & that effect has gone down for me since they introduced the cloud feature. Idk if it's because they add trending words or what, but it's gotten worse over the years & was terrible once I upgraded to the bigger screen.
I don't swipe on SwiftKey, and my experience has been the exact opposite. It's only gotten better for me. It's been great to have it across the any devices I've owned.
That was my experience before they added swiping. I had done the Swype beta, but had no need for the gesture typing. I didn't get into it until swiftkey rolled it out. For tapping, it was amazing. I'll give you that.
Like you,I started using Swype when the alternative words (no next word suggestion back then) were about as big as the camera icon on the Tapatalk reply to post, were in the center and going vertically. That was on a phone with a screen that was about 2" smaller than the Note4 also (Inc 1). I don't know how I ever saw those tiny suggestions but it was so accurate it practically read my mind. I could literally slide gibberish and it seemed to know the word I wanted . SK Flow was like that at first but after it begins to learn my habits for next word predictions it's at the cost of slide accuracy. I choose slide accuracy over next word prediction in a heart beat.
I installed it, but figured I'd go with the standard version until the trial was up at least.
That's something I notice too, having had it for a while & loaded lots of apps on it. No real stutters or lag, even still, when bouncing in & out of different apps.
