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 use typewise. It feels like there is more space for every button and i no longer accidentally press the space button

        Next to f and h

        It takes some getting used to but i am pretty happy with it! You swipe up on the buttons for capitals and it has some gestures that makes deleting and restoring quite easy

          Interesting. Admittedly, I’m almost always using my phone one-handed, but I know some people use two hands.

            You dont need to press both space buttons simultaneously to add a space 😉

      The keyboard itself is great, I just feel like the auto correction keeps doing everything in it’s power to fuck up what I typed, more so than before I switched.

        Do you use multiple languages? And if ye. Do you have a pro/paid version that switches between languages automatically?

            It might be the issue. I have the same with english and danish. I have asked in the telegram group about it

      Wow this one is wild. I kind of like it at a glance but also I would have to relearn to type 🤔

        Its not that difficult actually! They even have a mini game and a very good tutorial in the app!

        I feel that its gotten a lot easier to type since i got this and a lot less typos

          The less typos thing seems like it would be true even at a glance. That was my first thought seeing this.

      I absolutely adore this keyboard, I just wish they’d add a voice input button so I could use FUTO’s voice to text with it.
