unfortunately stock keyboard is the issue not the vibration. Sideload G-board and thank me later. It runs as fast as any other phone keyboard.

Honestly how can they get the keyboard so wrong… It’s like one of 6 apps they had to make, and do well, wtf

not happy using a Google product, is there an alternative? You are right though that it works 5 times faster, stock keyboard is completely unusable.
@urszula Please fix stock keyboard ASAP, it’s a breaking issue imho.

Have you turned anything in the settings to any specific point? I dont have haptics or sound in keyboard even though i turn it on and off and doesnt work in any combination so i suspected switches not working at all but here it is working at your phone

I fully agree here.The poor keyboard performance might be the breaking point for me with this device. I’ve seen suggestions to side load keyboard, but this is 100% a function that should work well without side loading

But wow, thank you - after just 5 minutes of testing FUTO keyboard, it changes the entire experience of the device. So much better - speed of typing, auto correct, voice input
I still would really prefer not to give a 3rd party app access to my keyboard input, but that issue aside for now, this is a significant improvement to the typing experience and I hope the native keyboard can match this in the future.

You are in luck @brendxn because FUTO is the most private keyboard, does not collect data, and runs locally.

@Jose_Briones would it be better to get FUTO from F droid, aurora, or something else?

Not Jose, but the safest way is to follow their own links here: FUTO Keyboard

Better through F-Droid, as it manages updates. If you get the apk only you get no updates.
To install it through F-droid:
F Droid > Settings > Repositories > {+} circle and scan the QR code from Futo’s website and you get access to their Repo.

My first choice is to get the app on F-droid, which happens with Open Source apps most of the time. If it’s something important that is not there then I look up on Aurora Store.
Aurora Store is good too, I got Signal from there because it’s not on F-Droid.

Their website doesn’t specifically recommend Aurora store (but im sure it’s fine since it’s basically the Google store). All of the info you need is in that link.
