Fallen apart over the past few years – Swype Review

Coming from an Android device that had Swype installed as the stock keyboard, I bought an iPhone 5S and used the iOS version of the app to ease the platform switch. Sadly over the two years since then, this keyboard has begun to become more and more non-functional. It'll fail to appear as the default keyboard, will appear but won't type, types but fails to hold onto completing my Swype, and even freeze, making it impossible to change keyboards. I was able to resolve these problems with a restart, but I can't deal with this anymore, especially after always happening in important communication moments. I had to delete the keyboard just to write this review. What a shame. I'd gladly throw a couple more dollars into development of improving it.
