A few weeks ago, the SwiftKey team released the first beta of SwiftKey 4.3 – Layouts for Living. Today, the team has released the final version of the update on the Play Store as a free upgrade for existing users.
Among the major changes included in the update are three new layouts – Compact, Thumb and Full – for quick and easier typing.
The full change-log of the update are as follows -:
-
Choose from 5 sizes to get your keyboard the perfect size for you
-
Undock your keyboard and position it where you choose on your screen
-
Rearranged and optimized secondary (123) and tertiary (symbols) layout, based on extensive user testing
-
A new theme: previously SwiftKey and SwiftKey Tablet had two different themes called “Dark”. Both are now available on phones and tablets, with the tablet “Dark” renamed as “Forest”
-
Extended layout for tablets, including left and right cursor keys
-
All 4 cursor keys (up, down, left, right) are now available on the secondary (123) layout on tablets – phone users can still choose to have cursor keys on the main layout
-
10-inch tablets can choose to have a central numpad in the thumb layout in landscape
-
Combined phone and tablet app to give a seamless experience across all device sizes
