I'm slowly but surely switching everything I use to FOSS alternatives and after using Gboard for a while thanks to it's good swipe typing, I moved to OpenBoard for the same reason. Unfortunately, the fact that I can't auto-fill my password via 1Password is bugging me (on top of less-than-ideal autocorrect). You guys know any alternatives?

I currently use this fork of OpenBoard since its actually getting updates and a ton of fixes. supports glide/swipe typing. Then Bitwarden like someone else mentioned. Pops up in a drop down when you click a username field.

Thanks! I've been using the official OpenBoard for months, and it's good to find a fork that's being updated.

I just wish it were as smart as Gboard at turning its into it's when appropriate.

But look, they put underscore on the F key where it belongs!

Still no emoji search, though. ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

This widget toolbar is super handy.

Oh, and you can delete learned words you entered by accident, and built-in words, too. That was sorely missing from the official version.
