What is a good keyboard for android?
I've been using SwiftKey for waaaaaaay too long. I shoulda switched when Microsoft bought them out.
But old habits die hard. And I love the skin I use.
Help they know everything I've typed on a phone. That can't be good for anyone.
Edit: Holy fuck everyone, thanks for all of the responses!
I went with Heliboard, and typing this, it looks like I have to change a couple more settings to get it like I had Swiftkey, but I already like it more.
The fact you can basically make your own skin by changing all of the colors of the keyboard is amazing.
Fuck microsoft's ai keyboard.
Heliboard for lyfe!
Edit edit: trying to delete my data from Swiftkey was INSANELY hard. I couldn't do it from my phone, so I had to login with a computer. They think they are slick.... Fuckers....
You're viewing a single thread.
I'm also a Swiftkey holdover, trying Heliboard now..
Is there a keyboard that can do haptic feedback while typing and enable multiple languages at the same time? These two features are really missing for me.
Heliboard can do multilingual typing, and I believe there is some kind of haptic feedback... I don't use that function, but it was mentioned in the latest release notes
How does it do multilingual typing? You have to change the input method, right?
Not necessarily: you can choose to have several languages separated as different input methods (you can switch between them very quickly by sliding vertically from the space bar) OR you can go to "Settings / Languages" and select one of your active languages and inside its submenu add languages for multilingual typing. This way when you select that original language as input method it will use and recognise all the languages you added at once. I must say this can be tricky with glide typing, but still works pretty well.
Thanks! I went back and eventually found the settings for them. You can even configure the length of the haptic feedback which is great.
