What keyboard are you using?

Where do you get your Blackberry apps that you have to pay for them? I have never paid for them on my Android phones.

You can use them free with ads, or you can subscribe. I knew I liked them and wanted some of them so I subscribe for about 13$ a year
 
At various times I've tried them all but I've yet to find any that can hold a candle to SwiftKey. The customizations are great and the predictions are so good, they're surreal at times.

I usually use Swiftkey too.but recently i decided to just use Samsung's built in keyboard.too much words and suggestions sync to my swiftkey.thus making it not so efficient anymore.yes i know i can remove words.but its a hassle.

I don't pay and I don't have ads. I've been using the link I posted above to install all the Blackberry apps free and without ads since I had my Priv.

Same here. Been using Swiftkey for awhile but have been using Samsungs built it board so far and its been quite nice for me! I'll try using GBoard (again) sometime when I have to give this phone up.....maybe.
 
I use gboard and will occasionally try sammy one but I don't know it just doesn't "feel" right.

The way it looks in dark mode when the phone is in dark mode is great. That's essentially why I'm using it even though it has me typing slower.
 
waiting for gboard to allow night mode via time

my s10e goes to nightnode at 7pm would love gboard to do the same. I would stop using Samsung keyboard completley

Well you won't have ads on a priv. I used the link to get the keyboard. Subscribed for the rest hoping they would just bring the keyboard over as well

I don't have my Priv anymore. I've used that link on my S9+ and now my S10+. All ad free.

You are correct. I chose to get it from the play store and pay the subscription so they keep offering them. Most people won't go to that link to get the apps. I did to get the keyboard however. Most folks that haven't experienced the BlackBerry keyboard won't be bothered to try it. I knew I wanted that keyboard though. Nothing compares. To add, I really hope they come out with a beefed up priv type slider. I miss the pkb for some things too. Priv was my first exposure to a pkb and they definitely excel over the vkb for some things

Hmm... I guess I should pay for them then. I didn't realize until now that they were in the play store. Thanks for the info.

And I totally agree about the pkb. I loved that slider! Nobody makes a keyboard like BlackBerry, physical or on screen.
 
If you do subscribe, the keyboard won't be there but you already have it from the link. Updates on the launcher etc come through the playstore. Be nice if they would just give us the dadgum keyboard too
 
+ Swiftkey
I recently tried the Samsung keyboard and Gboard after using Swiftkey for years. For my usage, on my Note9, what I feel is the greatest advantage of Swiftkey is the autocorrect selections that are presented when I dictate an email or text. I can click on a word that was misinterpreted and Swiftkey gives me correction options that are usually spot on. I found that in Gboard and Samsung I need backspace, delete and retype all too often, because they don't provide options. Then again maybe I've missed a setting in Gboard.
 
Gboard does offer predictive text and auto correction. You need to go into the settings and turn it on
