SwiftKey Flow Beta Updated

Hi there,

As the launch of the next major release of SwiftKey draws closer, we have an updated Beta for you to try out. This update fixes some force close issues, and also resolves a number of bugs reported by our awesome VIPs. We’re very grateful to you all for helping us to get the Beta into such great shape – it really wouldn’t be the same without you.

SwiftKey Flow phone beta 4.0.0.99 – 5.8 MB
SwiftKey Flow tablet beta 4.0.0.99 – 6.6 MB

Please download the APKs onto your phone or tablet, try them out, and let us know what you think in the SwiftKey VIP Community. Your feedback is vital to helping us make every new version of SwiftKey so much better than the last.

Thanks,
Charlie Edmunds
Head of Consumer Insight
