The corpus tools and SWIFTKEY KEYBOARD APP

What insights into your own language use and development did you gain by analyzing your own writing with the corpus tools? 
  I have corrected my wrong collocations. I adjust my texts readability according to levels that the readers participate. They are useful for academic writings to find out appropriate academic words.

Here are some corpus tools:

SWIFTKEY KEYBOARD APP
These kind of applications are now used in smart phones as default apps. When you get used to them, you may find yourself as if you had never written the words letter by letter. Its another advantage is its auto-correction function which makes writings in social media or informal contexts more intelligible.
