I’ve been using SwiftKey for waaaaaaay too long. I shoulda switched when Microsoft bought them out.

But old habits die hard. And I love the skin I use.

Help they know everything I’ve typed on a phone. That can’t be good for anyone.

    Samsung and Privacy don’t mix. Not worth it IMO to use a closed source keyboard if you care about privacy.

      While I do agree and have stopped using the Samsung keyboard, it does have many unique features that I still miss almost daily.

      A few that come to mind:

      • a special text editing mode (select all to the left, right; turn select mode on and then move around with arrowkeys while selecting, …)
      • visual resizing of the keyboard
      • “2D” cursor control (move cursor diagonally)
      • swipe spacebar left/right to change input method (while having spacebar cursor control enabled!)
