What keyboard can I use that doesn't treat me like a 5 year old and allows me to type "crap", or even swear.
Samsung keyboard won't allow any profanity and auto corrects everything. Trying swiftkey but it auto corrects everything as well, including "crap" "sucks" etc that aren't even swears.

So what keyboards are for grown ups and allows big bad words or that may at least have a place to enter words not to auto correct. I can't find this feature in samsung or swiftkey. I'd like to avoid gboard if possible due to excessive data collection.
So what is everyone using that allows them to talk like a growed up? Thanks!

I use Samsung keyboard and I just did a test and typed " what the crap is this fxxxing shxt and it didn't auto correct using correct spelling on an email and a website I frequent. Maybe different versions in different countries I am in Canada..

I believe the input typed here gets corrected by androidcentral and probably other websites do similar. No change to words on an email

Thanks. I am also in Canada. Is there a setting I am unaware of? Even searching for this issue about samsung keyboard and it seems widely known that swearing will auto correct and no settings to change that. I'm not sure how it is working for you. I know the keyboards have the ability to "learn" these days but I don't know how to tech it. It's been a week and I'm done fighting with it every time I type a legit word in the dictionary that my keyboard decides I shouldn't use. Why can't they just be treated as the actual real words that they are?

Again though, I appreciate your trying this. Not sure why mine reacts differently.

And to Bkdodger, I may end up with gboard, but as stated in my original post, it is not my top choice unless it is the only one that allows all real words to be used. Thanks.
