AnySoftKeyboard, I use it and love it, but it need a lot of time to be configured exactly like you want
In using ASK with swore, but as you can see, it's not yelling accurate. I wish that the namespace key would remove the while worked, not letter by letter.
(I'm using ASK with swipe, but as you can see, it's not terribly accurate. I wish that the backspace key would remove the whole word, not letter by letter.)
You can set gestures on spacebar to delete whole word. This is why I say anysoft need a lot of time, because probably your needs are already fulfilled, but find the option is an ordeal
Well, would you look at that, it was in my settings the whole time. Thank you kindly!
Think I've settled on this one. So far so good thanks!
I looked at it briefly and just want to confirm - it doesn't support simultaneous use of multiple languages, od does it?
It does! You can download the additional languages and then configure it how you want (a very common one is to swipe on the space bar)
Thanks for the answer. I wasn't clear enough, I meant being able to write in multiple languages without having to switch to another language, like what e.g. Gboard does.
Oh my bad then. I'm not familiar with Gboard having never used it unfortunately. I don't think then that you can use multiple languages all at once. I can only say that AnySoftKeyboard is very customizable and as far as convenience goes, one can easily change languages with a swipe. You can also add your own exceptions and abbreviations in different languages
Thank you, I will check it out.
Yes, it is possible, but it's hard to find the option. Here an answer on GitHub https://github.com/AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard/issues/1524
