[SwiftKey] SwiftKey 3 End of Summer Sale - $0.99. Any concerns with privacy?

**sg01** · 08-31-2012, 05:44 PM

I'm excited to see that the SwiftKey 3 is currently on sale for $0.99.

Anyone concerned about their privacy when activating a keyboard on their phones?

I'm a newbie with Android and have heard good feedback about Swiftkey 3. I'm just not comfortable with an app seeing every keystroke I make.

Should I be concerned?

Tons of people use SwiftKey. If there were a privacy concern I'm sure we'd have heard about it by now. I've been using it for a long time myself and never had a problem.

As long as you are using reputable companies, you should have nothing to worry about. SwiftKey is really good.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Good points to consider.

I doubt you need to worry.

If you'd rather your keyboard app didn't require internet access (in the permissions that you are warned about on install), you could try Magic Keyboard.

There's a available now.

I've been a beta user with SwiftKey for years. There is no need to worry.

End of summer. Which could be September 21st...or as soon as tomorrow. Just by now if possible -- it's too good of a deal to pass up on a very well written keyboard replacement.

Switch keyboard to numeric and you will find % key over the @ symbol. See screen shot attached.
