The haptic feedback defaults at 10ms…so you won’t be able to feel it in most instances. You’ll want to turn it up if you want the haptic feedback when typing. 30ms seems to be about right.

I’ll try it but so far I’ve been pretty happy with the Go keyboard.

This option actually is available. It’s under haptic feedback. I cut my time to 15 seconds.

I wish swiftkey let you choose how long you had to press a key to get the alternative characters. Thumb Keyboard still has more options overall than Swiftkey, but Swiftkey might have better predictions/corrections. I haven’t used it long enough to know yet.

Does anyone know how to stop making it add a space after every period? Its insanely annoying when you’re trying to type a web address in anything other than a location bar.

For some reason it renames it to zip.

Doesn’t hold any water in front of Swype. Installed, took it for a spin and disabled.

I was really disappointed with Swiftkey. Swype isn’t perfect, but it’s still the best there is at the moment.

This keyboard looks so nice and has the function to match. I’m not switching back to X.

FYI you have to rename the extension from zip to apk if you download if from your phone… or at least I had to.
