FlorisBoard is a free and open-source keyboard for Android 7.0+ devices. It aims at being modern, user-friendly and customizable while fully respecting your privacy. Currently in early-beta state.
Without suggestions/predictions and auto-correction it’s unable especially for a lazy user like me. Hopefully someone makes extensions for them.

FlorisBoard is my favourite FLOSS Android keyboard. Waiting for swype-typing feature to be implemented to it.
HeliBoard has it for some time now
It has a proprietary Google’s implementation.
Thanks, I am really looking forward to a more stable version to replace Gkeyboard.
Wdym. I’m using it for years withou issues. It’s perfecttly stablle
Its in perpetual beta like lawnchair where the only releases are betas/alphas while the stable is left behind quite a lot
The stable version is perfectly fine. The beta is just the intermediate version untilsuggestions are ready.both are stable and the beta label is no problem. Development just takes some zime. It’s difficult without sponsor

With Samsung’s AI grammar correction, I can’t put it down.
If you’re willing to implement something like this, it would be amazing.
Grammar or spelling?
What does it correct that you need?
Gogle has it too, if you’re writng an email itll fix grammer spelling. punctuation , etc!
I think it’s literally a Grammerly addon (but I’m not OP)
I’d be interested in one for LanguageTool instead
Everything from grammar to spelling and even the typing style. It’s really fast and direct, completely free. It uses AI to do all the work and works with almost every language.
I haven’t used the Samsung keyboard in years so I don’t know what the comparison would be. I do think that for the most part, FOSS keyboards lag a couple years behind Google, Microsoft, etc. This is one that looks promising, but is still a long way off from a “complete” app.
I guess it depends on how much you care about privacy. There are a number of private keyboards now to choose from, but if you trust Samsung (Google, MS, etc.) with your keyboard data then it may make it worth the upgrade in features
No, I really don’t trust Samsung or Google or any other company with my data, but I can’t ignore such a great future like this. It’s that good.
