Windows tablet onscreen keyboard

[AlexFl]

Use Swype on my Android phones. Wanted a small Windows tablet for work. Bought an 8". Keyboard very fidgety. Looked for a Swype like alternative with no joy. Seriously??!!

A Swype keyboard could just make that tablet bearable.

How is that possible? Or am I just being doff and looking in the wrong places?

Please let me know if I'm wrong.

you can only add Qwerty keyboards as far as I know.

TouchPal?

TouchPal?

This is the best option. Doesn't work in Store apps though.

Thanks all. Doesn't work in store apps? Not sure I understand. Would one need 2 keyboards then? That's a bit dumb of MS. Main concern is email and calendar (I take notes in meetings). Would it work for those?

Yes it won't work in Store apps aka metro apps. You'll need to use the om screen keyboard.

From TouchPal's website, they only support Android & Apple. Any further thoughts on this? Further guidance would be most helpful indeed.

It won't work in metro apps and it's kinda buggy so don't waste your time.

Thanks. That's a major let down for MS touch devices
