I'm curious, where does this beta come from? I'm trying to find a place where the beta APK is uploaded or shared to by the developer, but I can't seem to find it!
Edit:
Seems like it's tucked away in the Sidebar on the Nintype reddit. You can find it there. But for anyone in a rush, here's the latest updated APK (june 2016)

How did you get it installed? I'm getting `"problem parsing the package" from new beta
Thanks in advance
Per the info on the r/nintype sidebar, that happens if you download the APK directly onto your phone via Chrome for Android. Try transferring it onto your phone from a PC.
Latest beta updated November 7th 2016

This keyboard is pretty awesome. I've been using Keymonk for years, but it was sadly dropped by the developer a long time ago, I don't think there's been an update since 2012. I've been looking for a keyboard ever since that has the two finger swype capability, and this one seems like it has a lot of potential, but man is there a lot going on. So many colors and things popping up. I think it's a little too busy but I should get used to it eventually.
I came to post my suggestions.
You have the autospacing feature in the app, but it feels a little slow to me. I'm moving on to the next word but it is not putting in the spaces fast enough. With all of the other options and features in it, I think you should be able to change that timing in the settings.
Ability to edit the period to add other punctuation depending on which direction you swype it. Google says nintype can do this, but I can't find the option on keyboard 69. Also it seems like I can get a question mark sometimes if I swype right from the period, but I only have a ~40% success rate on that.... After some more playing with it I think I've found you have to swype from the backspace to get question marks and exclamations, and down from v to get the comma. Just feels all over the place, don't you think?
For double letters a brief pause on that letter should count it again, or Keymonk lets you do a little circle around that letter and it'll catch the double letter. Seems like it catches it sometimes, but isn't quite fluid. Need some work there. Tapping it a second time just isn't quite natural to me yet. I suppose I'll get that in time.
A better menu of settings would be very beneficial. Everything feels bulky and isn't clearly laid out or obvious what it does. Maybe a better walk through when you first install of all the available options since there are so many, rather than just tell you how to finger new words. At least tell us where the punctuation is, that's pretty critical.
Also, I think there is a bug. Hold down the space bar, go to twitch under the paw icon (see what I mean) and the whatever faces don't show up correctly
Overall, well done and I can see you've put a lot of work into this app. Thanks for everything

Hey, thanks for the reply
but as I said before, I'm not the developer of this application, I just realized a while ago that there wasn't a thread on XDA for Nintype, so I just created one and posted the beta every time Jormy made one. Its a great app but still needs a lot of work. You have a ton of input that I think the dev would love to hear. I suggest that you tell him directly here: https://twitter.com/jormy you can also write a review at the google play store and give your valuble input there: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jormy.sixtynine&ah=NfgmmJhTRIKMPvdxH5Wn2ENo_kk

Hi guys!
Can I set custom words to link with emojis with Nintype? If not, what are the words that link with key emojis, for example the laughter? Thank you!

Still using this keyboad today, and planning to into 2021! I absolutely love the two handed swipe capability that I have found no other keyboard comes close to in experience. No updates for a few years means it lacks a few features and has some bugs however.
I have to agreed with you. i have tried few others keyboard but non as closed as this.
