I've tried several keyboards and I always find myself coming back to G-Board. It's the best in my opinion. The predicative texting is miles ahead of Samsung's keyboard. You also have the ability to customize it by adding a number's row, different color schemes, emoji access and the ability to resize the keyboard height, just to name a few.

Used to be a good keyboard app, but as time has gone by it is getting worse. Autocorrect is changing perfectly spelled words to something else with no rhyme or reason. it isn't based on context, and even if it were you don't have an option to disable that without turning off autocorrect completely. In this review alone I've had to stop 6 times to fix changes it made for no reason.

The Age of sketchy, off-brand, glitchy, ad-infested, unreliable, and storage wasting third-party keyboard apps is over!!! The Time of the Orc... I mean Gboard has come!!! Very pleased with the customization options, even more so with the Multilingual input option that incorporates the features of Google Translate into Gboard, and last, but not least, the Text Scanning option that incorporates the features of Google Lens into Gboard allowing you to translate anything within camera view!★★★★★ App!
