It was working for a while, but not now. Nearly unusable, the screen no longer clears and refreshes so you're writing on top of other previous strokes. The error rate is incredibly high and it interprets half the letters as punctuation. Sadly, it works better on an older, cheaper phone. I can't even write this review with it, no one would be able to understand it.

So far I absolutely love this keyboard. I didn't know till today that I can do so many more things while using it that just blow my mind. Not only does it do 10xs more things a normal keyboard can do, but it has really awesome features by using certain symbols, buttons, etc., that help you with almost anything. Different languages, Morse code, the layout, proof reading your whole message by the tap of your finger. Once. Crazy right? I never thought my phone would ever out do my desk computer. 🤯

Been a loyal user for 11 years. But surprisingly Google keyboard has been surpassed by the Samsung keyboard. The swipe word prediction algorithm has become horrible, and the voice to text has become worse and worse over the years. I started to get very frustrated over the last year so I decided to give the Samsung keyboard a try being it's already built in and it's way more customizable, plus it's got innovations that Google keyboard doesn't have. I'm moving on, thanks for the memories Google.
