KeyPoint Technologies Announces Adaptxt 3.0 Beta for Android Keyboards

SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- KeyPoint Technologies, an award-winning world leader in user interface technology, today announced Adaptxt 3.0 smart keyboard app is now available in beta. Adaptxt replaces users' standard smartphone keyboards enabling them to interact effortlessly with their apps, emails and text messages with a keyboard that is practical, personalized and engaging. Adaptxt 3.0 not only understands what users are typing, but it identifies the location of the user and what application they are running to provide more accurate and contextual word predictions.

With over one million downloads, Adaptxt's new features and improvements are based on requests and useful suggestions from users. Adaptxt is now the first keyboard where users are able to set preferred locations on their device or turn on auto-location, allowing the built-in Adaptxt dictionary to populate nearby street names, landmarks and relevant addresses. Using the localization feature, the ongoing frustration with autocorrect is significantly reduced, as it predicts and suggests names and words associated with the user's location.

"KeyPoint has taken word prediction to a whole new level with keyboards that know you better than you know yourself," said Sumit Goswami, CEO at KeyPoint Technologies. "Our users will save even more keystrokes as Adaptxt intuitively provides location and app-based word suggestions while also silently updating their phone's dictionary to include recent trends and buzzwords."

By adding pinpointed suggestion features to the app, Adaptxt is more aware of the context in which users are writing. Unlike other keyboards, Adaptxt knows what application is being used and will provide word suggestions according to the user's writing style and habits. It is able to detect whether the user is having a casual conversation using WhatsApp or drafting something formal in Gmail and adjust its word predictions accordingly.

Other keyboard enhancements include 14 new languages, five specialized dictionaries and two embedded themes, in addition to missing space corrections, automatic backup of personal dictionary and new customization options, all based on relevant user feedback.

Pricing and Availability

The Adaptxt 3.0 is available now by joining its Google+ community and clicking on the download beta link on the community page.
