    I agree. I dropped it recently for a non-FOSS alternative because I just can’t deal with the lack of predictive text/autocorrect

      HeliBoard is a good foss option that has autocorrect and stuff! You can also give it swipe typing by supplying your own proprietary blob, so that’s neat. Better than using a non-foss keyboard!

        I’d try Heiboard again, but it didn’t have built-in layout options, nor a clearly communicated way to get them last I tried it.

        I’ve used HeliBoard for a while before going back to GBoard, unfortunately. It’s a decent keyboard but I’m a swipe feature user and prediction plus autocorrect was very bad for me using it. I used FlorisBoard for a while also and it has more features,but no swipe support at all,plus only English support.
