Yeah I really like the stock keyboard due to the ui and colour scheme but SwiftKey prediction is just too good to miss out on :p plus the way that some things work is better.
 
Average rating for Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is now down to 1.6 with 160 'one star' reviews against just 25 'five star' ones!

A lot of customers obviously aren't happy!

The prediction is awesome already just from using it for 5 minutes, Beats the stock one for sure. I wish I could have the UI/Colour scheme of the stock though! Although the Holo theme isn't too bad!
 
I am still finding it mispredicting words that swype has no trouble with :/

Are all these people that are loving swiftkey flow coming from normal keyboards and not swype? :|

I am coming from using sense, stock, thumb, swiftkey 3 and other keyboards. Have used swype before but it was months and months ago, was never really fussed on it, didn't find the prediction to be great.

I almost asked this exact question earlier (aside from the fact that flow seems to decide it can only work on some text boxes). It also only really does 3 words with spaces and then decides to forget everything you've currently typed. I'm more than happy to give it a longer go but it feels like it's a bit behind swype in the swiping part right now.


Edit: the word bar also keeps dissappearing, wtf is going on with it.
 
Tip for swiftkey flow users - go to preferences and click on learn from SMS to help make prediction even better.

Myshra - I can string 10 words plus without issue, are you going to space bar after each word?

You're missing the part where it says "beta" :p
 
Kona, it keeps going sometimes but others it seems to have a fit, appears to be sentance specific I guess (or user error, can't rule this out for sure). The word bar dissappearing for some text entry fields is a huge pita though. It appears to only be enabled for general text and not the other types. I'm not expecting flow to be enabled for passwords but for pretty much everything else? sure. This for example, is a problem when a word mid sentence is wrong. Typically I would click the word to highlight and expect a replacement set to appear but currently it's showing nothing so is slowing me down.

I also appear to have come quite reliant on swype to A/X/C for select all/cut/copy, is this replicated in flow?

Beta in Android is akin to pre-release and you know it :P The word bar going wonky is more alpha surely.
