I figured out the issue with the web payment. The website error said it couldn't generate the payment request, but the issue was the email address I used. Apparently, their payment system didn't like my email alias (e.g. name+futokeyboard@email.com). Possibly it's just something where it doesn't allow non-alphanumeric characters or something, but doesn't generate an error on the email input field... it just breaks when they try to generate the payment. Using a non-aliased email did work on their website, but the in-app system still doesn't work. Further, when I got the activation email, the button to activate the app didn't work. I checked in the app, but didn't see anywhere to put the key in... you click the "I already paid" button a couple of times and then it just says thanks for using the paid version. At any rate, I was finally able to give them my $5. :-D

My summary after reading through the comments here: the biggest issue for a lot of people seems to be multilanguage support. Several have felt the swipe input is quite inaccurate. And multiple people missed the height/offset adjustment that's under all the themes; maybe that could be broken out into "layout" or something, just so it's more obvious. My opinion hasn't changed in the days I've been using it; it's great. I'd only add an option to auto-space after punctuation. Thank you!

Over time, Q and P will grow in size until the far edges of W and O are actually Q and P, and the left side of D will register as an S.

The settings UI is a bit unpolished but so far this is amazing work and way better than Swiftkey. You even get a local ML model which handles suggestions and everything feels smooth and advanced. It's great.

Wow! This keyboard looks absolutely incredible. I love it. ❤

Looks really good. I like all of the customization options. I really like that it all works locally. My favourite keyboard of all-time is the BlackBerry 10 virtual keyboard. I loved the way you could flick up directly from the keyboard. Miss that thing.

Just instealled it and used it. Instantly love it.

Thanks a lot for the demo! I'm a long-time SwiftKey user who is more and more worried about its privacy as well, and this keyboard is an alternative in a long time that feels really great from my first impression!

Excited to try it out. Listened to Louis talking about it too.

Downloaded it as soon as it was announced. Currently replying using it. I was also a user of swift. One time it was soooo good at predicting texts that I used to type just a few words and write the whole sentences but after few updates it deteriorated significantly and i learned it was recording everything I was typing (FOREVER!) which led me to an an open source option.

Thank you so much, was swift keyboard fan too, but I don’t like co pilot. Just installed and it is so responsive. Love it and will definitely buy it, because it is offline 🙏😎

This is absolutely great.

Amazing video!

One of my favourite features with this is the voice typing. It add punctuation! Google voice typing as well as a few others just do run on sentences and wont add punctuation unless you specifically say "comma", "period", "question mark" and things like that.

It seems that FUTO keyboard haves the same handicap than AOSP keyboard and/or GBoard, which is tied to the preset language (in the case of AOSP keyboard and/or GBoard, is usually the default localization of the OS). The main advantage is the avariability of the offline dictionary of words that holds in their one hundred megs. As an AOSP enjoyer, I see as a close alternative to the AOSP keyboard that haves the enhancements for Material You themes for a smoother experience from Android 12 and beyond (LineageOS enabled the Material You theme in the AOSP keyboard).
