Does that predictive text continually changing as you type put you off?

Jurys out, not sure if it's a help or a hindrance? It is a bit off putting for me

How does this standard iOS8 new keyboard compare with the Swiftkey/Swype apps? Anyone thinking it's better?

This is not a 'how do you turn it off' thread

Depends on approach. It doesn't bother me, but I'm not looking for it to solve everything either. I'm more interested in what's to come in the near future.
The door's open for something great.

I do, I think it's pretty helpeful and accurate!

I can't compare it to Swype but at least with Swiftkey, I didn't like the bubbly suggestions and I didn't find it quicker. Actually worse, while I was slowly swiping, I had to check if the quick suggestions were what I needed.

I'm sticking with QuickType since it's pretty decent so far.

What's the swiping all about? Is this just copies of said apps?
