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 love Heliboard it is a fork from Openboard. It has themes and is 100% offline

It’s there a better swiping library for heliboard? The one they suggest is a lot worse than gboard’s.

Haven’t used heliboard so I’m not sure if its different but have you tried this one?

That’s odd, it should be identical. The library linked in their FAQ is a package extracted from Google apps.

It’s insanely customizable; you can change all of the special characters to be anything else, as well as their positions.

Nice. That’s actually even more customizable than I need. How does it do with the correcting correctly spelled words thing?
