When it comes to keyboards on Android smartphone Google Keyboard has been a favorite choice for many users. However, SwiftKey Keyboard designed by Swiftkey company has now launched a brand new application.

Many expect it to be a completely new update, but as per the reports it is quite similar to the original SwiftKey keyboard, but as an addition predicts and suggests different types of emojis depending upon the writing style being followed by the user. For example, if a user writes cooking via keyboard, he would be displayed several emojis that are related to the best possible extent to cooking and dishes. It also bases suggestions on 'worldwide emoji trends'.
The company in its official statement quoted that, "The app works by using the context of what you're typing coupled with worldwide emoji trends to give you the best and most topical emoji predictions."
Adding to its official statement the company also said that it conducted a review according to which certain group of people had linked with certain emojis. As an example: the goat emoji crops up for Muhammad Ali - the acronym G.O.A.T signifying Greatest of All Time, while the crown and honeybee emoji for fans of Queen Bee Beyoncé. Not just this the Swiftmoji application works on the similar technology that the basic SwiftKey keyboard makes use of.
Peter Holc, iOS, and Swiftmoji product manager said: "Emoji popularity has exploded and very quickly it's become the most-used unofficial language globally. However keyboards have been slow to capitalize on its rising popularity and the ongoing, daily quest to find the right emoji is still a big frustration. That's where Swiftmoji comes in - suggesting just the right emoji for what you want to say."
As of now, the new SwiftMoji keyboard has been launched only in the English language on both the Android and iOS users. Android users can fully replace the keyboard since it's permissible, however, on iOS, the application for now only supports emoji keyboard.
