No arrow keys on Swype keyboard after updating to 4.4.2 I updated and am now running 4.4.2, and was surprised by the update:


The arrow keys I had now don't exist. I need them.
Also, when it gets a word wrong, I cannot back-delete characters, it just deletes the entire word.


Is there any way out of this?

It's probably because the update also updated the keyboard app which no longer now has arrow keys implemented. There is a way though, you can always use third-party keyboard apps from Play Store. Many do have arrow keys: Hacker's Keyboard is an example, and SwiftKey is another example.

This is because of autocorrect. You can disable it in keyboard settings by going to Settings -&gt; Language and Input and check your keyboard's settings.
