That is true. I found swipe to type convenient, but never necessary personally so it wasn't a feature i thought to mention 😅

Not sure if it's only on F-droid, but I've switched from G-board to Open-board. It's a virtual keyboard app that has many "extra" features compared to Simple board. There's autocorrect, swipe to complete, and a clipboard visualizer. I'm trying to figure out if I can add entries to the dictionary so it suggests some words I use often instead of others tho.
