We find that Swype is rarely off by a little. If we don't guess the word you want, you probably want to delete the whole word and Swype again, rather than deleting a few characters. So delete after a Swyped word will delete the entire word.
For this reason, the long press "Delete word back" function has been removed. Cheers and Happy Swyping! Peter SwypeSupport. Improve this answer.

This is, unfortunately, a known issue with the beta on some devices; it is particularly prevalent on the HTC Incredible, and occurs specifically after a reboot of the device though it can, in rare occasions, occur at other times. In our case, the ESN variable a hardware identifier tied to the telephony radio is not loaded into memory until after Swype has already started loading. The workaround for this issue is to switch the input method off of Swype, type a few characters with another keyboard, then switch back to Swype.
This will trigger Swype to reload the license. Type a few characters then use the same procedure to switch back to Swype. I hope this helps relieve the frustration of having to reinstall Swype all the time.
Are you rooted? If so, you might try using an app like Titanium Backup to take a snapshot of a good install with dictionary, and restoring that whenever the problem resurfaces. I'd hazard a guess that you used the keyboard while you were plugged into the USB and swype couldn't get at it's dictionary so it started a new one which was saved to SD once USB was unplugged. Are you using any memory management programs? Any app2sd, battery savers, task killers, etc. If so, I suggest turning them all of for a few weeks, see if that makes any difference.
I'm using an older version of Swype, 1. Now running JellyBean, I was facing the same problem. This is how I managed to fix it:. I have a HTC one M7. It decided to reboot after getting confused on how much battery power it had.
Now the personised Swype dictionary is gone. I tried Swype's workaround listed above, but no success. There is no footprint of my old dictionary.
However I have found that it's easy to back up my new personal dictionary. How this will save people from the troubles I've had. Sign up to join this community.

Swype dictionary keeps getting deleted Ask Question.

Is the dictionary just gone as in no file or is it just cleared of data? I don't know what causes the dictionary to be deleted. That's part of the question. The dictionary may be stored on the SD card, but the app isn't.
