For years I was reluctant to type with a tactile screen, but after trying the "swype" mode to type, I found that I'm actually faster with it than with a classic keyboard. So a keyboard now seems obsolete for me. I admit that there are still issues with it, like for example this annoying bug when it does 2 words suggestions
However, I still have to find an adequate solution to efficiently type code (offline or online, but both should be possible) using an android, as gboard is definitely not designed for it.
There are apps available that can run python or other interpreted languages, so you can connect a real keyboard on an android, but even small keyboards are rarely high quality.
I guess a solution would be some tactile keyboard app that is designed for programming.
- stuaxo 9y agoNow Swype is going, can you recommend anything in it's place?
- tough_luck 9y agoGoogle keyboard or Gboard has swype like feature for a while now. Other options are SwiftKey and choorma keyboard
- zokier 9y agoI suppose you mean touch screen, which is pretty much the opposite of tactile.
