Looking for an alternative Keyboard app

pathief@lemmy.world to Android@lemmy.world – 63 points –

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!

Swift key is honestly the best one I have used. Plus now I found the adaptive theme

I didn't even know it had an adaptive theme! Now I gotta look for it and give it a try.

Neither did I. Pretty sure I never really looked after I got my note 8 when it came out. Only got a new phone a week or two ago. No idea when it came out.

Honestly I'm surprised SwiftKey still uses those super basic themes. Looking at the adaptive theme it reminds me of the stock theme

I never really looked for anything crazy. Basic material was fine for me

I just imagine a world where the material folks and the over the top theme folks can coexist on the same keyboard app lol.
