Hello, could someone recommended a keyboard for android that is a bit smart in predictive typing? I used to like swiftkeybefore it was bought by microsoft. Not that swiftkey itself was much better but I was not so privy conscious at that time.

I recall swiftkey would require access to your texts and emails to train itself to your predictions.

Is there some similar foss keyboard where all the data then remains local?

I know swiftkey has an incognito mode, but then it stops learning from your typing.

    I use AnySoft as well–it has a predictive word function that seems to work just as well as GBoard’s (albeit I haven’t used GBoard since 2017)

    The interface is different (e.g. swype left on the entire keyboard for numbers), but give yourself a week or two to adjust–most things can also be fine-tuned from the settings app
