@uninvitedguest@lemmy.ca I decided to give try to gboard+trackercontrol. Internet access is now offfl. It blocks tenor as expected and the offline swipe seems to work as desired. (Which means light-years ahead of any other swipe I've used)

What I cannot tell is if the voice input truly is offline. I had always presumed that Gboard was relying on "Google Voice Typing" integration, but I have that keyboard disabled. I still feel wildly uncomfortable using voice with gboard. How is it so accurate without going online?

Any thoughts on how to ensure gboard voice is also 100% blocked?

Put your phone in airplane mode and test the voice input again. The experience should be the same.
