I was anxiously expecting the update, but man that keyword is a deal breaker.
Can it be configured as dark themed?
The keyboard is a central point for UX, I've already moved away from Samsung for the same reason, and will hold the update if I'm forced to use that keyword
- umurkontaci 12y agoI agree, the new keyboard sucks a lot, there is no visual distinction between the letters and it is very easy to make a lot of typos, it is very painful. Went back to Swiftkey immediately.
- brewdad 12y agoWhat's odd for me is that I feel like I should be making more typos with the new keyboard, yet I'm actually making fewer. I'm not sure if that has to do with the keyboard mapping being more accurate or me focusing slightly more while typing due to the "buttons" blending together.
- ultramancool 12y agoJust install SwiftKey, Kii Keyboard, Swype, etc. Far better for completion and UI in my opinion at least.
- pilsetnieks 12y agoThere are four themes for the builtin keyboard now: - Material Light (the default, the one that's shown in the article); - Material Dark (the same but dark); - Holo White (the old one); - Holo Blue (the old one with blue accents)

- vibrolax 12y agoThe menu sequence to change this is: Settings / Language & input / Google keyboard / Appearances and layouts / Theme

- _lce0 12y agoThanks for taking the time. The new keyboards look different but polish, would definitely give it a try
- mdellavo 12y agoYes the keyboard theme can be changed. Settings > Language & input > Google Keyboard > Appearance & layout
