Older versions of Google keyboard.
Aside from accuracy, I intermittently get a bug where the swipe gesture doesn't begin and I just end up typing one letter with each swipe. I can correct this state by dragging my finger around for about a full second or two, at which point the swipe trail reappears and starts working again.
- ulrikrasmussen 2y agoSame here, it is infuriating. It also isn't very good for languages which contract words such as Danish. In Swype I could hit backspace once to place the cursor at the end of the last word and then swipe to add another word after it, but Gboard just annoyingly insists on "correcting my mistake" and inserts the space back again. I have to manually type in individual letters of all contracted words when writing in Danish. I really miss Swype. I have tried other keyboards but I have yet to find one that doesn't suck.
- Groxx 2y agoOlder Gboard (before it was called "Gboard" I think?) was quite excellent. It started degrading badly for me around when it also started suggesting words that obviously came from the internet, e.g. stuff like "that" getting suggestions of "THAAAAAAAT", or current hyped brands I'd never heard of (much less typed out).
