Dude, once you get used to swype, you will never be able to go back...it crushes the hunt and peck method.

Mitchrapp · June 18th, 2011, 10:17 PM

Its working really well and rather fast . Sometimes I forget what I'm typing and just start swiping or swyping and I get the right word to come up. Sweet app.

hi all

I used beta 2 before and it had some serious flaws. mainly no uk dictionary. but 3 had one and looks a lot better imo.

using it on my desire.

Auto-Spacing is not working, although it is checked in the Swype settings.

N4CER · June 20th, 2011, 03:30 PM

so far I have no problems with swype, although I'm used to it since I use it on my Evo

dan55 · June 21st, 2011, 01:33 AM

can it do multiple words in one swype? ie with a space in the swype action between words - ive tried it a few times and doesnt seem to work but think it was possible on earlier version .....maybe

cheers

Yea, I am pretty hooked on swype now.. once you start texting any other way is torture.

Mitchrapp · June 21st, 2011, 01:08 PM

The only thing I don't like is when I need to manually type something, last name for example, it can be a tad slow in response. But I guess this keyboard isn't meant for that. But I love to swype.

marctronixx · June 21st, 2011, 02:09 PM

It also works well with a stylus.

dan55 · June 22nd, 2011, 03:06 PM

still working well for me

if this was v2 I would be back
to my regular keyboard by now
cheers

LOVING Swype on my Xoom! It was one of the reasons I bought the Xoom - now I can really enjoy.

Same here. I held off on getting a tablet until I could get swype for honeycomb.

IHateMyTreo · July 16th, 2011, 11:36 PM

Upgraded to 3.2 yesterday and Swype Beta for tablets no longer works - it thinks the screen size is non-conforming, so keyboard won't fit on screen. Known issue per Swype forum.

My keyboard fits but some of the menu buttons are a bit small. Still works fine though.

Edit: one thing I do notice when swyping in the address bar, it won't auto space anymore. Or maybe it never did that and I misremembered.

brawndo · July 21st, 2011, 10:59 PM

tells me my screen size is not supported. just got my xoom today and updated all the way to 3.2 before i tried.

redpanda · July 22nd, 2011, 09:03 AM

I found the swype honeycomb apk file online and installed it directly without going through the beta (since the beta installer just tells you your screen size isn't supported). I won't link it because it's technically a pirated apk, but it's not hard to find. It gives you error messages and puts the keyboard in the wrong place when you switch between landscape and portrait, but it's better than nothing until they fix the official version.

Michael.aw · July 22nd, 2011, 04:26 PM

Everything went fine doing install then at last moment an error mssg says screen size problem.

I have xoom wifi honeycomb 3.2

Wigged out!

dan55 · July 23rd, 2011, 07:20 AM

still loving it

i must be as ive been using it now solidly for approx 4 weeks i think - SO much better than previous release imo

BigKayDaddy · July 25th, 2011, 02:05 AM

I've been using Swype 3.0 on my Xoom for the past month and I feel that it is laggy when swyping around. Does anyone else experience this?

NTexican · August 11th, 2011, 09:51 PM

Upgraded to 3.2 and now receive an error that Swype is incompatable with the screen size. Works OK in landscape though. Anyone else running into this issue?

redpanda · August 11th, 2011, 10:05 PM

Yep. It's a known issue. If you close the keyboard and reopen it in another orientation it should work, but you'll keep getting the error. Just don't uninstall it, because the installer won't let you reinstall.

Coach914 · August 16th, 2011, 08:16 PM

Swype is teasing a fix for this by late August.

Michael.aw · August 16th, 2011, 08:19 PM

Too little, too late, too bad for Swype, I found. SlideIT an it works fine on Xoom HC3.2

redpanda · August 23rd, 2011, 02:52 PM

Swype update today fixed it.

JRich8389 · August 27th, 2011, 07:10 PM

Sweet! I was hoping the Xoom would have this (Just ordered mine, still waiting), I loved it on my Droid X and now I get to enjoy it still! Thanks for the info CK!

Mominator · September 20th, 2011, 11:56 PM

Working like a charm for me, just installed. Thanks!
