Hi friends. My quest to remove Google products from my life continues.

I’ve always been very fearful of swapping keyboard apps. I can think of no better way to track someone than to bug their keyboard. How can I trust any keyboard software, really? My wishlist:

  • Something that addresses my privacy concerns
  • Supports both english and portuguese dictionaries at the same time
  • Has a dark theme
  • Is available on some sort of store, so I don’t have to download APKs for every single update

Thanks!

    First off, you have nothing at all to fear when changing keyboards, they are all switchable easily through the notification dropdown.

    For something wildly different, I’d recommend Thumb-Key, it takes a while to get used to it but I’ve gotten faster and more accurate with it than with a normal keyboard.

    Otherwise Openboard is really good, and there’s a fork of it too if you like swipe typing.
