I'm desperate for an Android keyboard! I need to type English, Czech, and Polish. We live in the age of LLMs, they not only know the words, they know how to use them together! Shocking!

I'd like to use glide typing (slide finger to type). Yet all the Android keyboards I've tried (GBoard and Microsoft SwifKey) can't hint basic forms of words an elementary school child would know.

Wrt Unexpected Keyboard, I find it tedious to type all letters separately on a touchscreen. Don't you?

Help me!

I used to use slide typing, but I've mostly reverted to tapping, at least the first 3 or 4 letters, until autocomplete can figure out what I want. I'm not really sure why, it just feels more natural.
Someone downthread proposed FUTO keyboard, I'm trying it right now and it's fantastic. Give it a shot !
Did you try AnySoft Keyboard?
Multiling O Keyboard
