Swiftkey released a new version of Swiftkey Flow beta this morning as build 4.0.0.76. Be sure to grab this, as it includes a number of changes and even more bug fixes.
In this latest version, predictions and Flow happen in most places outside of email fields, password boxes, or other semi-secure spots. Corrects are made easier with a tap on incorrect words, there are new languages, and the typing style is no inferred.

Changes in this version:
- Predictions (and Flow) now on in most places (exceptions: email fields, passwords, anywhere where the app doesn’t behave itself with SK, fields offering their own corrections on Android versions <= 2.2)
- Easier corrections – just tap on the word and SwiftKey will offer you 3 possibilities
- New languages: Thai, Vietnamese, Bosnian, Albanian, Javan, Sundanese (plus those added in 3.1)
- Features from SwiftKey 3.1: Berry theme, split layout in landscape on phones, Armenian, Azerbaijani, Georgian, Hindi, Hinglish, Irish, Macedonian, Spanish (Latin America) and Tagalog
- New layouts for Hindi and Russian
- Ukrainian landscape layout fixed
- Backspacing on to the final word of a multi word prediction (Flow through space) will now give better alternatives
- Typing style now inferred rather than a setting
- Long press delete accelerates after the first word
Bugs fixed:
- Flowing off shift no longer triggers a change in shift state
- Flow no longer gets stuck when you flow off the bottom of a page
- Quick period working after single letter words
- Arrow key repeats
- Learning when sending messages or tabbing between fields with the enter key fixed
- Azeri capital i behaviour corrected
- Estonian will now predict words containing ö
- Fixed force close on Beta predictions
- Flow trace no longer left behind after flowing
- Mounting an SD card will turn predictions off only if SwiftKey language packs are stored on that SD card
- Keyclick sounds no longer doubled
- Haptic duration made consistent with flow on and off
Known issues:
- Places you still cannot Flow: email fields, passwords, anywhere where the app doesn’t behave itself with SK, fields offering their own corrections on Android versions <= 2.2
- Selecting and deleting a chunk of text in Samsung email client on SIII and Note 2 deletes text before the cursor as well as after
- Slight jitteriness when toggling between Hindi and Thai primary and secondary layouts
- Turkish i still does not capitalise correctly
- Long pressing SK mic in Google Now causes the keyboard to disappear
- Occasional surprising capitalisations of flowed words
- Flowing through space often fails after relatively unusual words
- If you experience high memory usage after installing, this may be fixed by rebooting your phone
