What is the Swype Beta program?The Swype Beta program is a perpetual beta that runs in parallel to the Swype pre-install business model. As this is a beta, there will be bugs and unintended behavior – download this beta software at your own risk!
Will Swype be providing dedicated tech support?No, dedicated support will not be provided to users of the Swype Beta version. However, the Swype Beta version is updated about once per business quarter with new features and bug fixes, and members of the Swype Community Management team will visit the Swype Forum and engage with end users on a regular basis. Therefore, after you sign up with the Swype Beta program, we encourage you to register on the Swype Forum and share your feedback about Swype! You can tell us about any bugs you find, interact with other Swype users, and discuss feature requests.
Is the Swype Beta free? Does it expire?Yes and yes! The Swype Beta is free of charge and will expire after about six months. Fear not! We will provide periodic updates to the Swype Beta that will include new features and functionality, as well as license extensions for existing Swype Beta users.
