I’m looking to replace gboard and I have spent about a decade using gesture based typing. Is there any alternative that is private that gesture based typing actually work on?

    This works just as well as gboard!

    Open source or not, my question is, is my typing data consumed by Google in this context? I’m not an expert in the realm of android libraries and their connectivity or lack thereof, but I’m fine with using a closed source library knowing the data stays on my device.

      Try to use something like TC (TrackerControl) to restrict the internet connectivity of the app once libraries downloaded.
