I’m sick of random capitalisations mid sentence. I’m sick of common words being replaced by less common ones or even downright nonsense. I’m sick of it taking three attempts to successfully get the word I want. I swear it’s been like this for five years or more. Can we have a better version yet, or at least the old one back?
I actually can’t complain. It’s not perfect, but I’m far from being as outraged as the OP. I used to love SwiftKey, it was amazing with text prediction, even when you had two languages on at the same time (I’m bilingual, so it was really handy). Since Microsoft bought it, it started going downhill and when I found that I can’t just transfer my settings when I get a new phone, I switched to Gboard. Again, not perfect, but not terrible either. I will try out some of the recommendation from this thread though.
I don’t have as much trouble with text prediction as with the existent dictionaries for my native language. “Español rioplatense” (argentina, uruguay) exists as an option for many programs and devices but for some reason, it is just a copy from “español de españa”. This means, it is constantly trying to correct things that were correct on the first place.
I blame this on american racism and their small view of the world.
Also, i usually write in three languages and text prediction is pretty useful.
