is this keyboard based on google's slide-to-text?
I've tried many and none of them are close to being as powerful as Google, as much as I dislike them.

I'd like to use a FOSS alternative tho, even Samshitt's keyboard slide-to-text sucks, so if anyone thinks this one is good pls let me know

when you enter the app you click "I already paid", and you never get bothered by anything ever, "its between you and your God" as louis said in the vid

>text correction
I use this because no matter how fast and accurately you type, you can type faster still with slightly lower accuracy and let the correction fix it for you. Just be careful not to go so fast that you make so many mistakes that it corrects it into garbage.
>word suggestions
I have these displayed but the only cases when I use them are when I'm awkwardly typing with one thumb because the other hand is messy or whatever; or occasionally to add apostrophes when autocorrect doesn't automatically since that's faster than long pressing a letter to get one manually. When I type normally, I'm looking up at where I'm typing the text into, so looking down at suggestions is slower than just typing.
>voice typing
Don't use. I've never wanted voice input.
>an emoji key
I have it as long press on enter, not as a dedicated key. I do want to send emoji sometimes so I need a way to get them.
>>
>>101219775
The first thing I do with any phone (or any piece of software that has this kind of stuff) is to turn off autocorrect, suggestions, emojis, anything that is not plain text without any kind of "help" or "assistance"
Imagine letting a computer type for you.

You guys are such a bunch of stupid pissers Imagine actually reading what a license says. If the4 source is posted, that means its MINE. IT IS MINE. I get all the code. I get to GOBBLE it up. I steal the code and i repost it wherever I want and take whatever I want. I take GPL code and repost it as MIT or use it in my proprietary code at work. You people think a few words in a text file can do anything? You are actually going to be a text file cuck? I bet you fucking stop and wait at 4 way stoplights at 5am when nobody is around also. You fucking gay retards. Code is MINE. I get it. No words in a license stop me.

The license here can say whatever they want. It is mine. What are they gonna do?

Based take but what would you do if for example a popular application/game get its code leaked?
Take Cyberpunk 2077 or GTA5, would you use their code to create a new game?

>>101222359
Its funny because I think I have seen ads for FUTO on /g/ before. It is obviously not Louis Rossmans staff posting these fucking threads.
>>
Their keyboard isn't free software so I can't use it. I just can't bring myself to ever use non-free software or javascript. I can't use javascript. I won't do it. I can't.

I've been testing Heliboard and FUTA and so far the results are that FUTA is faster and more accurate.

Heliboard struggles with autocorrect and lags behind FUTO in speed.

That has been my experience thus far also, been using FUTA keyboard for the last few weeks. See no reason to ever swap it out. Just werks tm

I've just begun using FUTO, I'm already feeling it. The predictions aren't based off context from the previous few words, and it refuses to predict anything if you don't hover over every single character. I had to type prediction and character multiple times to get it to write the word. The text prediction when not using gesture/swipe is pretty good, swiping has been miserable in comparison and I haven't even used it for more than 10 minutes. At least it's not sluggish with gestures like Heliboard has been in my experience. Still switching back to it though, this took forever to type using FUTO.
