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 fucking hate Gboard spelling correct feature, it’s completely useless. I often ended up google the word (ironic isn’t it) to get the correct spelling.
A little context, English is not my native language so sometimes I got trouble spelling some words. For example the other day, I couldn’t remember how to spell “aesthetic”, I did type in “asthetic” along with a few other variation, but all I got from the “suggestions bar” was “authentic” “asthenic” “asthma” “asthenia”.
So I gave up and type “asthetic” in Google and it knew immediately and correct it to “aesthetic”.
Yeah it’s horrible. Then I turn it off and realize that it’s somehow even worse without it.
