Ratings and reviews

Until you lose an unrecoverable long Gboard shortcut dictionary, you may not appreciate this app. I lost mine 3 times. First moving to a new phone, again when needing a factory reset, and then in 2020 the phone became unusable, locked up and needed smashing with a hammer to secure my data. By that time I had been using UDM for a while. One or two keypresses and the new Gboard was an exact copy of what I lost. Thank you Adrian Vintu!

Simple App but DEFINITELY one of the few I absolutely use every day. First used when the built-in personal dictionary was having problems... I keep it handily in the Edge Panel & never have to navigate SETTINGS add a new entry. Exporting a backup literally take seconds & ONE TIME of losing every single shortcut + word/phrase/snippet taught me to keep a "BACKUP Backup" & THIS APP IS THE ONE!! (especially if, like me, you use sliding KB shortcuts/snippets by the truckload!!)

This is a great app. There are so many words unsupported in many default keyboard dictionaries. This adds any word you could imagine and more. It's very helpful from preventing the phone's default dictionary from auto correcting a word that isn't normally recognized. Has many language options too!
