I use Gboard.

The main things I like about it are:

  • Very customizable (I like having number row always visible, and having long press for symbols on each letter).
  • Has gif support built in.

My biggest pain point is:

  • It auto corrects words that are spelled correctly to other words. I type “our” and it changes to “out”, I recently typed “purpose” and it changed it to “purple”. Autocorrect is awesome and necessary, but I hate that it corrects words to other words and not just typos. I wish I could find a keyboard that has the things I like without this annoyance.

Am I looking for a unicorn? Let me know! 😄

    I’ve been using SwiftKey since like, 2012?

    I just like the custom keyboards, and it learns my mistakes when I swipe. I always carry 2 phones, so I was able to sync the 2nd phone so my swipes are already learned on that phone.

    Also, there’s a snow keyboard that collect snow at the bottom of the screen as you swipe.

      Has your autocorrect been getting worse? I use swipe and it seems to be mixing up words way worse than it used to.

      Or am I just getting bad at typing lol

        100% been getting worse. I was just talking to a buddy about how bad SwiftKey has been getting and I want to look for an alternative.
