On September 28th 2022, Microsoft announced that it would pull the popular keyboard SwiftKey from Apple’s AppStore. The announcement came suddenly and without much time to react. As of October 5th 2022, SwiftKey is no longer available on the AppStore.

This is a bit of a dilemma, since none of these options are good. Starting a few days ago, many people have been reporting issues with SwiftKey. Quite the coincidence that a keyboard which used to run perfectly for years is suddenly misbehaving a few days before being shut down… Anyway, even if it would work fine, it’s not getting any updates and as soon as you get a new device, it’s gone.

Now, choosing another keyboard is pretty hard. Ideally it should have a similar feature set to SwiftKey, behave similarly and be easy enough to use and customize. Just like SwiftKey, it should also be free.

It has tons of features, it’s easy to use and customize, and — best of all — it’s free. We do have a paid version, but you won’t need it in order to do any of the things you’re used to from SwiftKey.
