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’ll have to check this one out I think. Lots of people in here recommending it. I’m guessing it’s not on Google play?

      I install directly from the developer’s GitHub using Obtainium. However F-Droid is probably the more common method.

        Is Fdroid like a third party app store app or something? I see people talk about it a lot on here but I don’t know what it is.

          That’s exactly right. It’s a third party app store for free and open source software.
