Does anyone have any recommendations for alternate keyboard apps on iOS that don’t censor my less-than-polite speech? Having to type certain words out letter by letter is annoying enough since swipe texting won’t spell them out. And lately it seems like even after I type that stuff out, autocorrect will still go back and change those words. Tired of my phone trying to play Puritan Nanny.

Tried just googling the question, but the only results I get are how to add curse words to the text replacement list, and I’d rather not have to go program in every individual curse word.

    Apple isn’t alone in this. Samsung’s default keyboard does this as well. It’s absolutely infuriating. I’m an adult. I should be able to say what I want to say without my phone of all fucking things censoring me like I’m in primary school or at a job interview. It’s ludicrous. So I use Gboard instead.

      GTA 5 is restricted to mature/+18 age and still censors mild words like “fuck” and (sry) “nigga” while the game characters drop curses (in particular the n-word) almost in every other sentence.
