Installed futo and its seems good, but I can't see how to get amoled themes. The dark theme is charcoal grey, and even "Amoled Purple" isn't pure black.

The background is pure black, and you can disable the key borders at the bottom of this screen.

Thanks! I'd seen the key borders setting but thought it'd change the edge of each key, not the entire key. That looks great now!

So far, really enjoying the keyboard. The predicitive typing seems better than SwiftKey, which got kinda shitty in the last year (I assume because it changed to some amazing ai powered nonsnense).

SwiftKey has high contrast B&W themes that are amoled black (if that's what you mean?) Downside, it's owned by Microsoft and almost certainly recording everything I type to train their ai. But everytime I try out an alternative something drags me back...

This is literally the only Microsoft product I can't shake.

I've been using SwiftKey since about 2012 or 2013 or something. Nothing else has worked as good.

Why do you use letters keyboard with symbols?

-1

Mainly because I'm too lazy to toggle back and forth while typing and prefer to long-press to type dashes and quotes and such. I liked FlorisBoard because that was toggleable similar to Gboard but it respects privacy (most other privacy-respecting apps I've found have been somewhat lacking in the customizability department)

Not sure why you're getting downvotes for asking a question lol

Best keyboard but wish it supported Japanese input , would switch back if did
