SwiftKey 3 in Beta, eliminates need for the spacebar with new feature
One of the most popular third party virtual keyboards available in Google Play is SwiftKey. The new generation of the QWERTY is in beta and SwiftKey 3 offers a new feature called Smart Space that is said to eliminate the need for a spacebar. The word from the creators of SwiftKey is that it prevents "miss-typed or omitted spaces across whole phrases" using a powerful auto-correction feature. Combined with the software's text-prediction capability, you have a tool that allows you to type quickly and with accuracy.
For those that don't trust the Smart Space technology, SwiftKey 3 does offer a huge spacebar. And the latest version of the app offers support for new languages like Korean, Estonian, Farsi, Icelandic, Latvian, Lithuanian, and Serbian. This brings the number of languages available to SwiftKey users to 42. That is the good news. The bad news is that the Beta test is limited to the 30,000 souls who signed up to be in SwifyKey's VIP program, so you won't find this version in Google Play, at least for now. But wait! There is some more good news and that is you can still register for the VIP program now and then sign up for the Beta. Isn't it amazing how things work out sometimes?
