Technology giant Microsoft has quietly upgraded its Android keyboard app with some incredibly useful new features powered by the latest natural language AI, GPT-4. As an Android user myself, I was excited to take Microsoft's SwiftKey keyboard for a spin and see how it could boost my productivity.
After downloading the keyboard from the Play Store, the setup process was quick and painless. I granted the necessary permissions, made it my default, and was ready to start testing.
At first glance, it looks like any other keyboard. But when you tap the small Bing icon, that's when the magic happens. Here are some of the highlights so far:
Easy Access to Bing Search
No more switching apps to look something up. Just tap the search icon, type your query, and get results right on the keyboard. For example, I wanted to check the latest on Twitter's character limit. I entered my search, and boom - I could read the answer without leaving my messaging app.

Change Tone and Style With Ease
We all switch up how we write depending on the situation. The keyboard makes it simple to tweak your tone and style. Planning to email your boss? Select "professional" mode. Chatting with friends? Go for "casual/funny" instead. It's like having a communications assistant at your fingertips.
AI-Powered Writing Assistance
My favorite feature is the intelligent writing aide. Just tell the keyboard what you want to compose - an email, text, blog post, etc. - and it will generate a draft with natural language. I've used it to quickly send messages when I'm in a rush. The AI is scarily good at capturing your voice once you give it a bit of training.
Real-Time Chat With Bing
Lastly, you can chat with Bing right from the keyboard to ask questions, get definitions, do calculations, and more. It feels like the future is already here when you have an AI assistant living in your phone's keyboard!
While it will take some time to master all of its capabilities, Microsoft's new intelligent keyboard looks like a game-changer for Android productivity. I can't wait to see where they take it next. But for now, I'm thrilled to have these futuristic features at my fingertips.
How does this look? I aimed for an enthusiastic yet grounded tone, while highlighting the main benefits of the keyboard. Let me know if you would like me to modify or expand the post in any way.
