Its head office is at the Microsoft offices in Paddington, London, and other offices are located in San Francisco, and Seoul. The company behind SwiftKey was founded in 2008 by Jon Reynolds, Ben Medlock and Chris Hill-Scott. SwiftKey uses machine learning to predict text inputs, as well as supporting swipe gestures and docking features. It was first released for Android in July 2010, followed by an iOS release in September 2014 following Apple's implementation of third-party keyboard support. Microsoft SwiftKey is a virtual keyboard app originally developed by TouchType for Android and iOS devices. Washington, D.C.’s spirit emoji would be a snowman, so enjoy the image above and see whether you resonate with the other folks in your state concerning the use of emojis.IOS, Android, Windows 10 (versions 1809 to 1909) There are some easily predictable results, with Alabama making use of the elephant emoji a whole lot, while the boar emoji happened to be rather popular in Arkansas. How did SwiftKey manage to come to such a conclusion? Well, being a custom keyboard app that works on both Android and iOS platforms, it will have its fair share of emoji, which is why it has managed to analyze data from its users and the kinds of emoji used, allowing them to come up with a list, or a map, rather, of the most unique emoji used in each of the 50 states throughout the US. Since the US is the center of the world (as many would believe, but surely we can all poke a little fun at ourselves?), SwiftKey has mapped out just which emoji is the most popular for a specific state, as you can see in the image above. In fact, we have heard on the grapevine that there will even be an emoji movie in the pipeline, which goes to show how pervasive it is already. Emojis have taken over popular culture for quite some time now, and it happens to be a natural extension of smileys.
