Does anyone know how to directly edit the user dictionary?
Swype 3.25 beta is supposed to have a "personal dictionary" option under settings that allows you to do this, but as far as I can tell, that option is missing on our phones.
Cheers! I can't tell you guys how much I appreciate and love this community

Hello everyone,
I'm not sure if this is where I would post or under the Apps section, but I was wondering if anyone can spare 1 Swype installation for my EVO, I apparently ran out because of all the wiping and such and I was ignorant that there was a limit in the installations. i already sent them an email two weeks ago to reset it, but still no reply.
I really miss Swype and I was wondering if anyone can spare me 1, please PM me, I will be immensely happier with my EVO and your gratitude that's all I want :C.
This is by no means anything else, just need Swype. Thanks everyone .
-Good Day

Copy it to the root folder of your SD card. Navigate to it and open it with a file manager like Astro. It should prompt you to install.
Thank you so much!
The installation worked, but Swype doesn't do anything, now I can't write or text
It says the screen size is not the same. I think its the Swype installer saying its a Galaxy
Try this file. I had the same issue, plus expiring versions... I found this one in another post and it may by-pass the issue of expiring. Give it a shot.

Thanks a lot! It now works! <3
SlideIT keyboard
I hear everyone talking about Swype, which isn’t even out yet when I’ve been using SlideIT for a while now and LOVE it. I’ve used the Swype beta and I gotta say, SlideIT just works better. Its dictionary is better, it’s word prediction is better and it’s way of choosing alternate words is better. Instead of forcing you to choose from a popup menu, it makes its best guess then gives you an unobtrusive menu of alternate words to choose from in case it got it wrong. Please, try SlideIT, it’s a superior keyboad and it’s already available.
with mic?
is this the new swype version with the microphone by chance??
I have been using the new gesture keyboard and it is frustrating me that when I type swear words I cannot add them to the dictionary so everytime I use them I have to type them all out. Is there anyway to fix this?
If you go into:
Settings->Language & input->Personal dictionaries
You can select your personal dictionary and add words there.
I cannot add "F***" through this method. What do they think we are, bunch of kids.
I know there is an option to block offensive words, make sure its not checked. But i still think there are words you cannot store. Maybe come up with something else clever to say when you feel like cursing. How about "banana eatin cretin"?

I can add that word just fine. What is the actual error message you see?
If you go through the settings>language and keyboard you can add custom entries to the dictionary. I added a whole slew of filthy obscenities, and they come up just fine now via gesture typing.
Anyone wanna share lol? Can't be bothered to type them all in.

I just realized that double tapping a word highlights the entire word and gives the option to replace it with a drop down list of suggested words. Has anyone found any other tricks to working the 4.2 keyboard?

Swype is still phenomenally better. The typing gets more accurate with use, and it is always much more accurate and has better punctuation. It takes one tap to add a word to the dictionary. I add a word to the Google dictionary and it still doesn't show up. It randomly censors out words and autocorrects to words that don't even exist. It's a bloody mess.
Have you even tried to write the word "sex"? It keeps on changing it to "sec" and won't even allow me to add it to the dictionary.
Google should have just bought Swype and incorporated it...
I wonder if it's possible to disable it from automatically creating a space after each word, there are times when I want to disable it.

i found the new native keyboard a great improvement, but for me and my uses, doesn't get close to swype. one thing i miss in the native keyboard is cut/copy/paste/select all with just a swype, the ability to move de cursor by swiping too, it has tab (->), a big numerical only keyboard mode, &c.
Of course it's a matter of personal preferences, but swype has more useful features, that i find myself using everyday, than the new native keyboard. And I did delay my coming back to swype trying to get used to the new keyboard. But eventually, after a few days, I'm back with swype.
all the best
You can also tap and hold a word to get the options too.
Of course, predicting words could be better and punctuation marks on swype are more natural to enter.

I noticed that too. How dare they restrict the English language, the bayards. Oops I mean b*stards!
How do you manually add words to the dictionary? Is there a method of doing it other than the default type it out and touch again to save?

It's under the language and input section in the settings menu.
does any one know how to export/extract Swype keyboard user custom dictionary ? or atleast to locate it/them on the phone ?
I want to migrate to Touchpal keyboard but I dont want to start inputtting all my words manually again. I already have a huge list which I have been building over a long time !
Touchpal keyboard is very nice and I highly recommend it to try it out if you guys dont know or havent used it they even have tablet edition by the way link
I'm also very interested in this topic. Nobody here with a hint how this could work?

I just sent an Support ticket to Swype asking if there's an option to export/import words of/to the user dictionary of Swype and additionally asking if there is a general problem with dictionaries bigger than about 1300 words. Swype worked miserable for me as my dictionary grew this big. I had to manually delete words to solve this probleme and I was quite a bit annoyed...
yes me too, I think I did contact them about a year ago. they said no. if they do help you let me know
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
The support answered me, that the export is not possible and thats really bad.
The import is annoying but no big thing. Just make an long txt file, one word a line. You can't import all the words at once, but if you mark about twenty of them and then long press the Swype key you will be pretty quick importing 1200 words - what I did in about 20 minutes or so.
I need to access the learned words of my Samsung Keyboard, i´ve rooted my device and tried to find it, but i can´t... Anyone knows where is stored ??
You can't see all the words as a list or something, but you can delete learned words. You just need to start typing them and as soon as it pops up in the prediction area (above the keyboard) just long press on it and tap delete. This will delete the word from your personal dictionary. I hope this helps!
So many Reasons...
What a Wonderful Question?
Why, I wonder, are you trying to find these words...
Hmmm
Ok... that helped me too, but how do you stop the s7 from learning words or at least stop putting them into the auto replace box?
