The SwiftKey Keyboard for iOS devices updated to Version 2.7.0 today and brought with it support for voice dictation and a new trending GIFs category within the GIF pane.
Here’s the official release notes:
- For those moments when you prefer to speak instead of type – we’ve added Voice Typing to your SwiftKey Keyboard. If you’ve selected English as your language option, just tap on the microphone icon to get started and begin dictation. Tip: punctuation can be inserted explicitly – e.g. try saying “new line.”
- There’s a new addition to the GIF panel. You can now see top “trending” GIFs from your locale.
SwiftKey Keyboard is a Microsoft-owned keyboard app that’s available on iOS and Android smart devices and is one of the keyboards credited with popularising swipe typing.
