hello everyone I'm Jason Parker frissina
and I'll be taking a closer look at the
new keyboard in iOS 8 we've had
predictive text in iOS for years but
Apple has lagged behind Android when it
comes to giving you options for
predicting your next words in iOS 8
that's no longer a problem now when you
start typing the iOS 8 keyboard tries to
guess your next word it does a pretty
good job what's more Apple says that it
will learn the way you talk to specific
people so we'll give you slang words for
example when you're talking to a close
friend but might be a bit more proper
when talking to your boss or grandma
even if you don't like the new keyboard
Apple has finally allowed third-party
developers to create keyboards for iOS
so expect to see apps like Swift key and
others hit the App Store very soon
that's it for a closer look at the new
iOS 8 keyboard I'm Jason Parker for CNET
thanks for watching
