Oh hey, cool. Swiftkey is on sale! I don't mind paying £0.69 for that, not least because it is 5.6MB and Swype is over 22MB

Nope, I missed it for a while too but now I'm used to typing with both thumbs and I'm much faster.  I love Swiftkey.

As I drove, it would chime in with a voice description of points of interest (over my car's bluetooth, no less). It freaked me out at first, then I was like  I have my own personal tour guide in my car. Sweet.

Has anyone else been having weird issues with the Field Trip app's location? Yesterday and today, while I've been at work, it's thought I was 20 miles away at home. Google Now has my location correct.

In the past it's been useful to have both for when one or the other fucks themself for a couple weeks with a bad update. $0.25 worth of insurance. Also, different each has different themes and mildly different methods of operation. I like HD Widgets a little more but don't use either one anymore. v  v

I mean, if this morning the forecast high for tomorrow is 30 degrees but this afternoon the forecast high for tomorrow has been updated to 90 degrees, is this reflected in your calendar? It updates the weather forecasts for me, yes.

What phones are you using SwitKey on? I picked it up when it was on sale at the beginning of the month and went back to the default android keyboard after a couple days because of how unresponsive it felt on my nexus s.

Used it on a MyTouch 4G and my Galaxy S3, feels perfectly responsive on both (not a big surprise on the latter obviously).

I think I'm going to have to make the switch to swiftkey, too. I use Swype but I feel like I'm just fighting with it and expending more time to pick out the right word or type it in manually anyway half the time.

I use it on my rezound, works pretty good. Also just wondering, I saw a few pages back about using goodnews for podcasts and such. Until recently I used my ipod classic for music/podcasts/audio books, but now I have bluetooth in my car and headphones for work, I want to use my phone more. I already have mort audio books (and the widget) and I like the default music player for the lock screen controls, so I installed goodnews for podcasts, now how do I get podcasts into it?

Is there a thing in any RSS reader app where I can mark all the items older than a day as read, rather than marking all as read? I like the GoodNews interface etc. but haven't been able to figure out whether it allows me to do that.

I've been using just the regular stock Calendar widget to add my shifts at work onto so it's all on a widget, so it uses Google Calendar which is nice. It feels like there must be a better app for adding my work shifts on though. It's a bit of a ballache on the stock app. The widget is fine, though.

Just bought a nexus 7 and was wondering if there was a good app that allowed to sync sms / phone calls with my 2 phones. Basically get the sms/phone calls in my tablet. Being able to actually answer calls (instead of just getting the calls log) would be nice but not essential.
