Language models no longer backed up via Android back up if you have SwiftKey Cloud backup and sync enabled (this should save on network and battery usage)
Further fixes for crashes in the Cloud preferences

Known issues:

If you re-add a word that you previously removed from predictions, it will not always get re-added across all your synced devices
The showerhead Emoji in GoSMS messes up input
Spanish inverted ? not visible on plain QWERTY keyboard when Spanish is loaded

How to Enable New Gmail Inbox with Tabs “Primary”, “Social”, “Promotions”, “Updates” and “Forums”

Well, now you can enable the new tabs in gmail — “Primary”, “Social”, “Promotions”, “Updates” and “Forums” — pretty easily, manually, on the Gmail on your computer web browser.
All you need to do is open the gmail.com on your computer and once the Gmail loads for you, go to settings (a tool menu in top right, below your Google+ profile pic) and select the “Configure Inbox” options.
Now, you’ll see a pop window with all the tabs: “Primary”, “Social”, “Promotions”, “Updates” and “Forums”. While the first 3 are already selected, select the Updates and Forums tabs as well to get the complete feel of the new layout, although you might soon find yourself wanting only the Primary, Social and Updates tabs only.
Once you’ve selected the all the tabs or the tabs you want, do the obvious and click the save button and let the gmail reload itself automatically. And when it does that, you’ve got the Gmail with new Tabs.
Let some new emails jump into your inbox and you’ll see them categorized automatically to these tabs. Let’s see some tabs and their purpose in very very brief.
Primary Tab: Well, what doesn’t fit into other tabs remains here.
Social Tab: Mails from social networks (the Google+, Twitter, Facebook, etc.) will company each other together in this very tab.
Promotions and Updates Tabs: Don’t know much about how Google will select mail for these tabs but that’s okay.. we can ponder and wonder over that anytime later.
Forums Tab: It’s blank (for me at least). So, um, let’s just it for now.
Here are some screenshots that also help you do the trick yourself; that is, how to enable the new Gmail tabs yourself on your Gmail on web browser on PCs.

Guide to install new Gmail v4.5 on your Android Phone and Tablet

Step 1: Download the updated Google Gmail Android App v4.5 from above first.
Step 2: If you downloaded the Gmail 4.5′s APK on PC, transfer it to internal memory/sdcard of your android phone or tablet.
Step 3: Now, you are gonna need a file manager app to be able to install an app by its APK by browsing phone’s internal memory/sdcard. If you don’t have one, we recommend you install ES File Manager. Get it from the web Play Store (here) or simply search for it in Google Play Store app on your phone. It’s free. And it’s awesome. (And its full name is ES File Explorer File Manager, btw, which is of course, irrelevant here.)
Once you have the file manager app — whether it’s ES File Manager or any other file explorer/manager app — open it and go to where you transferred the APK file of Gmail 4.5. If you downloaded it directly on phone, then you should be able to locate them in “Download” folder on your internal memory/sdcard.
Step 4: Once you have located the APK file, newgmail45.apk, install the Gmail App v4.5 by tapping on the file itself, which will start the installation dialog. Hit ‘OK’ when it asks for “Replace app?” and then hit “Install” and then app will be installed. You can open the app from right here now, or as usual from app drawer or home screen shortcut or any other way of the many ways possible on Android.
Note: And make sure you have the enabled the Categories on the Gmail on desktop, otherwise this might not work you as you might be unable to see new categories inside app. To enable categories on web version of gmail on your desktop, go here.
That’s it. You have the new Gmail Android App, v4.5, right on your Android device.
If you had any problems in installing this, let us know, we would try our best to help you.
