Does anyone have any recommendations for alternate keyboard apps on iOS that don’t censor my less-than-polite speech? Having to type certain words out letter by letter is annoying enough since swipe texting won’t spell them out. And lately it seems like even after I type that stuff out, autocorrect will still go back and change those words. Tired of my phone trying to play Puritan Nanny.

Tried just googling the question, but the only results I get are how to add curse words to the text replacement list, and I’d rather not have to go program in every individual curse word.

    I’ve been using the SwiftKey keyboard for a while and it allows any fucking word I want to use. It’s really good at learning and predicting phrases I use often, including foul language, video game terms and words, etc.

      SwiftKey is owned by M$ and is definitely data harvesting you for AI training

        Absolutely, that’s a given. It even allows you to see some of the data that it has harvested from you and what it has learned about your swipe texting patterns.

        But it does work well, including what OP asked for, and I expect that all keyboard apps do much of the same. How else would the devs make any money from a free app that doesn’t have ads?
