Ratings and reviews

Mostly a great app that works as advertised. It's missing a few features and has a few quirks, like no autocorrect for when I'm using it for normal things, and the keyboard being offset to the right from gboard. The collapse function is a bit finicky, and requires you to swipe almost straight down. Other than that, it is a great keyboard for coding.

Works quite well but when minimized (also on the top lines when maximized), the preview appears below the key, where the view on it is obstructed by my finger, and it's irritating that it isn't at the position I'm used to. Nice to have: cursor keys below and autocomplete / translator button on top, and selection of letter/character variants on long press, as I have it in SwiftKey. Add those and I'll never use SwiftKey again!

I've been using this keyboard with Moonlight + Sunshine to stream my Windows laptop to my Android phone, and it completely changed my coding experience. I can relax in bed or code anywhere using VS Code without needing to sit at my laptop. Other keyboards weren't great for programming, but this one has every symbol in the right place, almost no mistypes, smooth typing, and the spacebar cursor control is fantastic. Easily the best keyboard for coding on Android!
