I used Unexpected Keyboard

Any tips on how to improve typing speed? (without using word suggestion and autocorrect)

I’m interested in how fast people who swipe type are.

Also, do those keyboards like Thumb Key and FlickBoard have the potential “to be faster” than the standard keyboards?

    I tried it with open board and had the same issue I’m never going back to non swiping but I miss swype everyday

      Swype is great but every now and then I get “swypos” where I’ll think I put the right word and I put something else there and the reader has to figure it out :)

        Swipe typing used to be so good for me, but now I have to correct every third word, it feels like. And it keeps correcting to just the most random ass words. Why the hell would it correct “probably” to “pusillanimous”? I’ve tried multiple modern keyboards and they’re all like this, I should download an old apk…
