Really as similar as possible but I guess the must haves for me are:
- Dark theme
- Swipe to type ability (I usually tap but definitely want swiping as well)
- Searchable emoji’s
- Word suggestions
Nice to have:
- Text editing tools for moving cursor just one character at a time through button presses
- Clipboard button
- Copied text automatically becomes next suggested word the first time the keyboard is invoked after copying the text
- Suggested next word.
My open board has a 10 key number pad option, accessed similarly to gboard. Doesn’t change your other needs, tho. I find it lacking in some ways, too, and miss the combo emoji feature of gboard.
But it isn’t tracking me 😃
