It's not on F-Droid, likely because the swipe implementation that they've injected doesn't have an OSS license. There's a whole discussion on it in this thread. There's no privacy issue here as the fork also doesn't have network permissions or anything, but I can see why they'd be skeptical adding this piece of code to the main repo which has a proper FOSS license.
OK, thanks for your reply. I'll get the APK from GitHub and try it soon then. I hope there's some way of removing words that the App's dictionary has learned too. It drives me mad that OpenBoard has learned some of my spelling mistakes and now autocorrects to them.
