Awesome. I've been using FUTO keyboard for two years now and it's the best free & private keyboard I found, but swiping has been really bad for all these keyboards which was such a pain because I use swiping a lot.

Nice to see the hour of swiping I did adding to their dataset actually helped. I'm using it now and it feels as good as the Google keyboard.

Edit: It is sending me a little that it keeps swiping "whats" instead of "what's" though, hopefully they fix that later.

Heliboard has had great swipe for a while and has two finger swipe which is killer feature

I'll look for a video. I like swyping because I can hold the phone in one hand and swipe with the thumb. The other hand is free. Two finger swiping would negate that advantage but maybe it opens up other usage scenarios.

Its optional! One finger swipe on heliboard works at least as well as gboard or this futo one.

Mind blown. And brain broken as I try to swipe with two fingers

I'm sorry, once you've tried it you may not be able to go back. For close to a decade have been using an unmaintained app called nintype that was apparently the inventor of two finger swipe until it stopped working on new android versions... Heliboard saved me from actual despair
