The support of third-party keyboards in iOS 8 continues to be cited as one its most popular features. In a piece titled, “New Keyboards Might Be the Best Part of iOS 8,” CBSNews.com writer Dave Johnson steps readers through setting up and selecting keyboards like Adaptxt, which he calls an “excellent choice.” He notes:
[B]eing able to replace the Apple keyboard with alternatives that might better suit your typing style and preferences is a good thing. And when you spend a little time with iOS 8, it doesn’t take long to wonder how you ever got along without the option to change keyboards.
Dave goes on to talk about the advantages of swiping; gliding your fingers across the software keyboard to form words rather than tapping each individual letter. It’s something that isn’t possible with the built-in keyboard today, and just one of the handy text entry aids we’ve put into Adaptxt that allow you to write your way.
