Ooh, what keyboard? Does it have gesture typing, and is it better than gboard (Google's own), which is the worst I've ever used?


I can't speak for GP, but I switched to Hacker's Keyboard[1] which doesn't support gesture typing. I'm pretty happy with it, though it's pretty barebones (it doesn't even turn on the phone's radio). Took a bit getting used to -- the recommendations are different and it felt like the key hitboxes weren't the same as gboard, but it felt pretty familiar after a couple of weeks.

Thanks for this, exactly what I've been looking for


You should check out MessagEase keyboard. It is so accurate for me that I don't even need corrections. It takes a little bit of time to get used to, but once you get the hang of it, it's super fast.
