We are starting to see a lot of third-party keyboards getting ready for iOS 8. In this video, TouchPal shows its keyboard supporting gesture/sliding input similar to Swype. TouchPal also supports autocorrect and predictive word suggestions, but these are not shown in the demo.

I think it’s cool Apple is allowing these other keyboards, but I’ll probably stick with the standard one. I can already type faster on it than all of my Android friends can type on their inferior devices.
