I just did it, it was easy.

    Heliboard is awesome, and once you get it installed its swipe works well. I’m off Android now, but I’d turn on telemetry for Heliboard.

      Swipe in my experience does need work. I’m glad they’re doing this.

      GBoard, before I switched, was like 95% accurate. I could trust it for blind typing. Heliboard with the google library is maybe 70% accurate and frustrating. “typing” in that last sentence was first “topping” the second “ripping” before I tapped it out.

      To this day nobody is as good as Swype was. RIP.

        Swype was great but Swiftkey’s (pre-Microsoft) word prediction made it my favorite. It was also able to pick the correct word without me having to care about swiping over the right letters. It seemed to work just by the shape I was tracing.
