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! 😄

    Currently, I just use GBoard, but I’m following the development of Florisboard rather closely.

      I just installed the floris 4.0 beta earlier. I think once they ship 4.0 and offer a type-ahead suggestion model Floris’ll be worth considering as a serious Gboard replacement.

      So far Floris is the best Gboard replacement candidate I’ve found.

        Thanks for mentioning this. As a current florisboard user I didn’t know I have so much to look forward to!
