Hello, could someone recommended a keyboard for android that is a bit smart in predictive typing? I used to like swiftkeybefore it was bought by microsoft. Not that swiftkey itself was much better but I was not so privy conscious at that time.
I recall swiftkey would require access to your texts and emails to train itself to your predictions.
Is there some similar foss keyboard where all the data then remains local?
I know swiftkey has an incognito mode, but then it stops learning from your typing.
I don't see the same thing on android 12.? Only restrict background data.
Same on android 13. There's not even a "Mobile data & Wi-Fi" category, just "Mobile data."
You could use an app like NetGuard to block internet access, but I've not found that to be a very practical solution, especially for VPN users.
Edit: Looks like it's a Samsung thing.
I really wish I didn't have a Samsung. What a horrible way to treat consumers, removing a basic function of the OS.
I'm on 13 and I have it. Your ROM probably disables it.
What can be done about that, besides rooting my phone?
Not there on 14 with pixel, but it shows only 1mb used with is likely even I search for gifs
It may depends on your rom/os brand. On my device (oxygen os 13.x), I can restrict access somewhere deep into mobile network settings (the translation may not be good as I have it in French) :
Settings > mobile network > data consumption > network access.
And here I see all apps. I can restrict mobile network, WiFi or both.
Same on Android 13

Seems like it's not available in Samsung's OneUI.
Samsung doesn't want you blocking their ~~spyware~~ pointless apps.
