    I really liked Typewise. However, third party keyboards seem so broken on iOS that I went back to stock. I regularly had issues with the keyboard not opening properly, bugging out, etc. :/

    I use SwiftKey and I hate it, but I haven’t found anything better

    I’m in exactly the same boat. 😅

    I don’t understand how it has been broken for years. I wonder if none of the engineers working on it actually use it themselves? Deleting all of your local data makes it stop crashing for a few weeks, but then you of course also lose all the learned predictions, and eventually it just gets to a point where it just crashes more and more often and you have to delete all the local data again. It sucks.

    If only the default Apple keyboard had support for my language, I would ditch SwiftKey forever.

      Mine will neither learn nor display corrections. It basically hasn’t improved ever, and i don’t know how to fix it. If Apple would just let me have a persistent number row on all devices i would never have even considered it. I guess i am wrong to want that though.

    I use the stock keyboard. It’s terrible, but so are the alternatives, plus there are privacy concerns.

    One nice thing I will say is that the word suggestions are actually good in the latest iOS since they are now based on an LLM.

    Bit other than thst typing is so inaccurate taht O have to go back and corewxt nearly every word.

    Swipe typing showing hello very much either. (Swipe typing doesn’t help very much either.)

    Stock keyboard here. I do the bulk of my writing at a keyboard, so I’ve never had any need for anything more than the basics on my phone.

    Stock. Now with bilingual support in iOS18 and the smart completions, e.g. for math equations, it’s becoming even better.

    I had Gboard for some time on iPad, as I’m on the Google product island, but it looked weird because it was in material design and the rest of the UI mostly was default Apple design. I think it also had some quirks to it. And at the end of the day, you don’t type as much on a tablet anyway, so I am just using the default keyboard again.
