SwiftKey Beta for Android lets you type in five languages at once, adds neural network predictions for French, German, Spanish

29 September 2016
If you don't mind running beta software on your Android smartphone or tablet, SwiftKey's got a neat little update for you. The beta version of the keyboard now lets you type in a whopping five different languages at once. This is great for the polyglots amongst you, as before you could only type in a maximum of two languages at the same time.

But even if SwiftKey implements Chinese/Japanese/Korean character on its keyboard, it would NOT be better than dedicated Chinese/Japanese/Korean keyboard apps, at least its early days.
So at the moment, I hope it has feature to switch to other keyboard app instantly.

        Chinese handwriting feature is required urgently. Because writing Chinese characters by only typing the phiniyin is very difficult sometime. And the gesture typing in Chinese language is also necessary.

          The most infuriating thing of Swiftkey is that it doesn't offer any quick way to swich other keyboard app which other apps have. It's meant to lock us in and make us stick to it, isn't it?
          When it comes to non-alphabet character, swiftkey is garbage so users need to switch.. Dev needs to take that seriously! I wrote this on reviews as well but no sign of work. And of course I ditched it :-(

              (Though they do allow you to make several triplets that you can easily switch among as you please)

                drunk texting has been available since the day phones could text. no need to use a beta for that.
