I do, but boy am I looking for a better keyboard, gboard has really gone downhill, I mean it was never great but it’s just straight up putting completely wrong totally unrelated words in place of REAL FUCKING WORDS. I miss pre-microsoft swiftkey, they had the best text prediction I’ve ever used. I remember in college my friend and I had a convo about how it was so good that he would have a full text to his dad perfectly predicted and he felt bad because he basically let a robot do the thinking for him lol. Now it’s been gutted by microsoft, and they text correction is just as janky as gboard.
I use gboard. It has great emojis and gifs so I don’t wanna stop.
If you type or swipe in a word (I primarily swipe) and it comes out wrong, you can tap and hold the suggestion word that you hate, and drag it upwards to the garbage to remove it as a suggestion.
No longer do I get “Ave” when I’m trying to swipe in “and”. Or any random proper nouns. It should basically never suggest proper nouns or abnormal words. If you want those, you should have to type them in manually, correctly, first.
Swype & Dragon was the predecessor of Swiftkey, and even though it was deprecated 7 years ago, it still works great if you get hold of an old apk.
I’ve heard that Android versions greater than 12 refuse to install it due to some outdated software api check, but there’s a friendly guy on the xda-dev forum who released a patched version.
I’m rooted as well, but holding on to android 12 for dear life. So far the future releases bring a lot of unnecessary garbage and restrictions, and no real improvements.
