▲ 61 ▼ Recommended keyboard for Android (lemm.ee) submitted 2 years ago by tombruzzo@lemm.ee to c/android@lemmy.world 28 comments fedilink hide all child comments I've been using SwiftKey since before the Microsoft acquisition, but now I want to move on because it's pushing copilot. What do you recommend? I'm fine with the play store or F-droid, and I'll pay for a good one if necessary
[–] Fave@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) I'm using thumb key. It takes some getting used to, but I like it very much and it is easy to use one-handed especially one large devices. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] tombruzzo@lemm.ee [S] 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Does it work like Nokia's old keyboard where you could press a key once and it would approximate the word you're typing from the letters contained within each key? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Fave@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago No. You press for the letter that is in the middle of the key and for the other letters you have to swipe. If the letter "p" is in the top right corner of the middle key you have to swipe to the top right corner. It takes some getting used to, but one-handed typing is much faster with this keyboard. permalink fedilink source parent
