I use Gboard (Google's keyboard) on iPhone and the space bar trackpad feature works way better than on native keyboard.
If Google ever discontinues the keyboard for iPhone I think I'll go back to dumb phones.

Does it send all your keystrokes to google though? That’s how most free keyboards work on android afaik so I’m wondering

Yes, it does. For passwords or any other field an app defines as sensitive, Apple keyboard takes over and you can't change from it, but other than that you share every keystroke with Google. Your only option is disabling location.

Good to know. I’m never using one of those then, as terrible as the stock iPhone keyboard is.
