The standard iOS keyboard makes me typo too much, not to mention changing the words after I’ve typed them and moved on.

Can anyone recommend me an iOS keyboard that:

  • has good swipe typing
  • doesn’t connect to the internet
  • doesn’t try to outsmart me
  • has a decent dark mode / is themeable
  • has multi language support

Thank you very much.

Swiftkey has all the features you need bedsides being privacy respecting. Perhaps after setting it up you can use a VPN service to block its internet access. It's a shame you're not on Android, it has much privacy respecting options and in this case you could use Heliboard (with the swipe typing add-on), which has all the features you need.

It’s a company phone, I don’t get a choice.

This is something that I’m craving for as well.

The default keyboard just suuuucks:(

Alternatives’ data privacy are myth without firewall-like feature on iOS.
