@orliesaurus Just like youtube cried itself to sleep with video, twitter did with buzz, spotify did with music, and the list goes on. The "what if Google does it" question is over-rated.

@jasonlbaptiste @orliesaurus It's especially over-rated when others have had a year or two head-start.

@blakeir @jasonlbaptiste @orliesaurus yeah if Google would do everything, then I stay in bed all day but it's not the case! We're building our product and here to stay!

@orliesaurus That's not necessarily a bad thing. It should only drive those startups to make better products. I know I personally have tried at least 3 other gif keyboards now, and haven't been able to use a single one of them as a functional keyboard. On first try, this one seems just as good (if not better) than the native keyboard.

@thejohnnyhill same tbh, i tried for a week different ones that I wont mention because I am nice! ...but freezes, crashes and not having the swipe functionality made me uninstall .. I hope this motivates more fellow product makers to step their game up - and start replying to feedback tweets/emails too ;)

@orliesaurus who is sleeping? 😉 wait few weeks and see what we are about to come up with. Google did an awesome job, we just have to do better or go home, rules of the game.

@cemkozinoglu @orliesaurus while you're here, I will say that Slash is definitely one of the better keyboards out right now. I love just how many services it brings into one keyboard, it's pretty brilliant. The thing that killed it for me was the autocorrect—unlike the native iOS keyboard, Slash was trying to correct all my made-up words that iOS natively recognizes as mine, or even (incorrectly) corrected more obscure words to more obvious words. If that could be improved upon, Slash would definitely be usable for me.

@thejohnnyhill @orliesaurus I agree and we are working right and left to fix that, also adding contextual suggestions in our next release to your Connected services ;) Imagine Spotify, or Dropbox, Instagram or Google Drive files are now a part of your search? Really close dropping this new version. In terms of number of services, this release will finally come up with our Platform with some partnerships we have been working on (Hint @giphy + more). Lets see how you will like this one.

@cemkozinoglu Fair enough, sounds like there's some good stuff in the works! I'll be sure to give it another shot when it gets updated!
