There are many bad stereotypes about Android, and Samsung isn’t helping by shipping such a bad keyboard to millions of Android users.

Also I want to highlight that heliboard devs together with NLNet are running an opt-in program to collect gesture typing data to make an open source library to further divorce from having to use closed source Google gesture library

Edit: p.s. if you somehow used to use this nifty iOS/android keyboard called nintype a decade ago where you can feature type using two fingers, heliboard also can do it. It’s awesome.
I’m not super tech literate. How do I go about joining that? I can’t seem to find the option to turn on swipe typing or the sharing of said data.
Thanks!
Turning swipe on is explained here (called glide typing)

Doing the training data is explained in the app after install as far as I remember
If you want to access the data gathering after the explanation, go to Settings > Gesture Data Gathering

Is there any way to use Heliboard with voice to text recognition?
I don’t personally use it but I see there’s an option for it
Where do you see the option?
Go to Settings > Toolbar > Select Toolbar Keys > toggle on voice input
And since I turned it on out of curiosity I tried it. And it just uses Google voice input 😐
Thanks, it’s a little hidden. I also had to configure the toolbar to always appear.
I also have the problem where it defaults to Google voice input and I can’t see how to change it.

Yes.
The show microphone is in prefs/toolbar / select toolbar keys OR pinned toolbar keys.
I’ve been contributing. I use swipe text all the time and I love that I get to help with his project.
