The app will materialize whenever iOS 8 does.Īlthough SwiftKey’s Android app was a paid download for multiple years, the company switched to a freemium model back in June, backed by a store where users can buy additional themes as in-app purchses. Because, with Apple firing the developer starting gun back in June at its WWDC event, a tsunami of alternative keyboards are launching iOS apps in tandem - including Android veteran SwiftKey, which is releasing its first system-wide keyboard software app on iOS as a free download. Once you’ve successfully managed to acquire iOS 8, you’ll be spoilt for alternatives to the native iOS keyboard. Yes, at long, long last, Apple is opening the floodgates to third party system wide keyboards, with its iOS 8 upgrade - due to start rolling out sometime tomorrow. So, so long Damn You Autocorrect s’been nice knowing ya!


Rejoice, long-time iOS users, for you can finally throw off the shackles of the native Apple keyboard - cursing its erratic autocorrect habits for (hopefully) the last time - as you download a third party keyboard adventure of your choice.
