   FlorisBoard vs Gboard Comments

   Top Positive Comment by João Lourenço · Jun 28, 2023

   It would take Openboard's place if dev didn't sleep on this project, as it doesn't have basic dictionary and auto correct

   Positive comment by Guest · Nov 19, 2024

   It is easy to use customize

   Comment by Zach G · Jul 6, 2024

   It's ok, but the swipe typing isn't great. It doesn't show alternative word suggestions, so you can't quickly correct, you gotta go back and delete. If you don't use swipe then it's a solid alternative.

   OpenBoard vs Gboard Comments

   Positive comment by D33pSh33p · Mar 23, 2022

   It's basically the open source alternative to Gboard doing all the same while also being privacy-oriented and trustworty (unlike proprietary virtual keyboards that undoubtedly are not your friend, unfortunately). OpenBoard is a no-brainer and I urge people to try it. :)

   Positive comment by Brexshit · Jan 27, 2024

   There is a numpad layout but no option to default to it. The defaults (like auto-correction enabled) could be better. But it's still my preferred keyboard, especially as the fork fixes some annoyances: https://github.com/Helium314/openboard

   Positive comment by brainded · Apr 6, 2023

   It looks similar to Gboard, so doesn't take much time getting used to it. It also looks very clean and polished

   Simple Keyboard vs Gboard Comments

   Positive comment by marioliulion · Apr 13, 2023

   Awesome 808 KB size keyboard. Very helpful in old mobiles.

   Positive comment by D33pSh33p · Mar 23, 2022

   I'd definitely have this over Gboard, but I'd have OpenBoard over Simple Keyboard.
