FlorisBoard is my favourite FLOSS Android keyboard. Waiting for swype-typing feature to be implemented to it.
HeliBoard has it for some time now
It has a proprietary Google's implementation.
With Samsung's AI grammar correction, I can't put it down.
If you're willing to implement something like this, it would be amazing.
I haven't used the Samsung keyboard in years so I don't know what the comparison would be. I do think that for the most part, FOSS keyboards lag a couple years behind Google, Microsoft, etc. This is one that looks promising, but is still a long way off from a “complete” app.
I guess it depends on how much you care about privacy. There are a number of private keyboards now to choose from, but if you trust Samsung (Google, MS, etc.) with your keyboard data then it may make it worth the upgrade in features
No, I really don't trust Samsung or Google or any other company with my data, but I can't ignore such a great future like this. It's that good.
Grammar or spelling?
What does it correct that you need?
I think it's literally a Grammerly addon (but I'm not OP)
I'd be interested in one for LanguageTool instead
What is language tool?
Edit: Oh hey, I use this in Thunderbird. It's great!

Gogle has it too, if you're writng an email itll fix grammer spelling. punctuation , etc!
Everything from grammar to spelling and even the typing style. It's really fast and direct, completely free. It uses AI to do all the work and works with almost every language.
