For those who have been using Swiftkey will agree that the best keyboard app honour, goes to this company. After successfully getting millions to download the app, tech giant Microsoft swooped in and bought them out for apparent reasons. And now these guys rocking out with another solution for the mobile users.
Choosing the right emoji for the situation or typed text can get you in a stump at times, using predictive algorithms, the company has introduced a new app called Swiftmoji which is capable of offering perfect emoji’s based on what you’ve just typed.
Available in both android and iOS, there are over 1800 emoji on a phone and figuring out the right one or searching through the list can be confusing. The app removes the frustration of playing hunt-the-emoji – and helps users discover new emoji that may have never even been seen before and gives spot-on predictions.
The app works by using the context of what is being typed coupled with worldwide emoji trends to give the best and most topical emoji predictions. Swiftmoji recognises sentiment across a huge userbase, analyzing how millions of people have used emoji over a given period.
Emoji-mania is at its peak, with approximately 6 billion emoji sent globally every day. Last year’s Word of the Year –– was an emoji for the first time ever, the Face with Tears of Joy.
The app on iOS appears as an emoji keyboard, whereas on Android is a full keyboard replacement.
