Hi friends. My quest to remove Google products from my life continues.

I've always been very fearful of swapping keyboard apps. I can think of no better way to track someone than to bug their keyboard. How can I trust any keyboard software, really? My wishlist:

  • Something that addresses my privacy concerns
  • Supports both english and portuguese dictionaries at the same time
  • Has a dark theme
  • Is available on some sort of store, so I don't have to download APKs for every single update

Thanks!

I use Typewise. It's not open source but there is a offline version. Both of your needed languages are available. Unfortunately the price is very high. But the honeycomb layout is pretty good, once you are used to it.

Tried it, think it's a great idea. I used for a week in a half but didn't to commit to buying it for the double dictionary. I just couldn't get used to it and it's particularly bad with accents.
