the link worked for me. Using it right now to swype this message out.i like it way better than shape writer. Seems more responsive and accurate.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm using a droid, running rooted 2.1. I downloaded the .apk and installed it normally (using astro if that matters). Set it as my keyboard in settings, and it doesn't respond to me "swiping". it traces, and when i lift my finger the keyboard flashes blue and doesn't input anything. However, i can type normally...what am I doing wrong?

Ok uninstall it and reinstall it. But this time try installing from the downloads screen in your browser. I airways have issues when I install an app using astro. I have been ruining mine for the last couple days andno force closes or anything. I had some fc issues with shape writer and was happy to finally start using swype it is amazing I will never go back to shape writer. Basically just reinstall it.

Had the same problem and all I had to do was reboot my phone now it works like a champ.

Did you get it working? Did you long click the text box and switch input method?
