It's cool the first time you use it, until you realize that it has no system to learn your writing patterns or use the patterns of the English language. It constantly gets words wrong. The wrong your/you're or too/to. Confusing out/put/our/it. I would love to type a message and not have to go back and fix something JUST ONCE! Letters are too close together and too many words have the same swipe paths. It's awful. I downloaded Swift Key X yesterday and it's freaking awesome. GOODBYE SWYPE.
@TranceAddiction13 I'm right with ya, Trance. I got my Galaxy Tablet, was tap-tap-tapping an email when a box popped up, asking if I wanted to try "SWYPE"? Well, heck, why not? Blew my knickers right off and I've been SWYPE-ing ever since! (yeah, I did find me knickers and put them back on! LOL )
Apple will come up with the reason y swype is not gonna work or mayb they will put this feature to ios in the future. Like jobs said "great devs steal"
i look at the young lady more than the swype feature on the phone LOL...jk the swype texting to me it's just a gimmick...i still prefer texting with my iPhone normal style and the fast and more practical way of typing on my N97 physical keyboard..but it's just my own opinion=)
Okay my problem with swype is that it seems you would need two hands to text. Unlike T9 which you can just type with your thumb. using swype with just your thumb seems like the phone would be too wobbly or unsteady and lead to wrong words inputted....
This is no toy, far quicker than any on screen keyboard or T9 after a small amount of practice (unless you are retarded) ... been using the beta's for a while now and will definitely be buying when this comes out!
Its revolutionary shit!
Not of the Iphone! and far better than shape writer....
I don't see why it would be the least bit faster than just simply typing by hitting each letter. The fact that you slide your finger from letter to letter is not going to make it any faster.
You still have to pause at each letter, so it's pointless.
Most people held the phone with one hand and use the index finger in the other. Only a couple of people grabbed it and used one hand with thumb. So I guess if you use that method it can have some value.
I just put this on my Motorola Droid and it's pretty fn cool. I think I'll be using it a lot. Seems pretty easy to learn and use. I can't stop showing off all the cool ass shit this phone does. :-p
One word - Novelty. This isn't a new step in technology it's a big toy. Notice they rarely show the other person typing. Yeah it looks different but it will never be able to do what the full qwerty can do. 1. I can type without looking at the screen (something a touchscreen can't offer is position fed-back) 2. My phone auto corects. 3. u only hav 160 charactrs n the ave txt which means u will wanna shortn words. (something t9 also doesn't like.
4. they never show them correcting an error (which you know will happen from time to time, like when get bumped or miss a letter) I imagine it's annoying. 5. you have to take time to add words to the phone just so you can type what you want. 6. Like the old man (no feed back so you don't know you got it right till you lift your finger.
@neobaptist1986 Its actually pretty easy...if you text enough you know where the letters are so, like you, I didnt know how the whole not looking and texting would go..but you basically just trace where you think the letters are and even if you screw it up pretty bad/miss letters it will recognize what you meant...to correct you just double tap the word and tap type what you meant and it saves that for next time...its pretty cool man seriously
this really pisses me off. What a stupid commercial. It's not like it is some great invention, just a somewhat decent feature. Don't advertise such a minimal thing as incredibly breakthrough. ..it's definitely not.
I got to play around with it and it is indeed super sweet :)
Just a few minor issues with it...like in landscape the comma can't be input quickly (it comes out as a period), that and the hold time for shift characters to come up can't be adjusted.
It's not hard at all. I went through the tutorial on the phone. Took like 2 or 3 mins. It's so easy. And no I don't work for them. I'm just really impressed. i though it sounded not all that interesting when I heard about it on a tech site. Try it out. How can you go wrong for free. I think it may just be a trial though. Not sure yet. I'll prob buy it if they don't ask too much for it.
Sadly, this only is availeble if your phone manufacturer magically deside to spend money on a already out of the door sold product, so dont wait up for it.
2:25 sounded and kinda looked like kanye west haha :D
