Swype for the EVO

**REVTEC** · 06-16-2010, 04:20 PM

Anyone know if this is a temp version? Mine stopped working about a day or so ago.

*edit - It actually says "my trial period has ended. Please upgrade." How do I upgrade?

I really like swype a lot! The only problem is words it doesn't understand. It takes a second to get out of the mindset of just 'swyping' the keys to go back to typing out that one or 2 words manually, then go back to swyping again. They really do need to put the voice to text button on there though. I miss that from the stock keyboard.

Just downloaded and installed Swype, this forum was the first time I've heard of it, just upgraded from the Sprint Instinct to the HTC EVO recently. Will update again once I get used to it. As it is now I'm a bit inaccurate and still a little slow with it.

The newest software update as of Dec 15th 2010 includes the Swype technology now!! It's amazing and much quicker!

i'm a little old school like buttons old school so i'm used to typing it all out. i tried swype for a good year and admittingly it is faster in a way but there are some words swype has a hard time understanding so it'll habitually auto-corrects it to something else. even when you input the words manually it can still get buggy at times.
