For some reason, in Jerboa, my autovorrect doesn’t work. Is anyobe else experiencing this? (I usually correct my mistajes, but I want to point them out)
I end up with bigger problems where after I type a comment, then wanna go back and change a word, Jerboa gets totally confused and wants to like erase the first words or random words in my comment.
Also it breaks text selection for some reason. Normally I double tap a word to select it, but in Jerboa (and only in it), I have to long press the word instead, which is more difficult since that can get picked up as trying to drag the cursor.
I’ll be honest, I’ve noticed weird issues with various Android keyboard apps under various other apps lately as well.
It got so bad for me, I uninstalled my keyboard app updates to go back to the assumed stable built-in GBoard app, and even that is now goofing up in YouTube.
I don’t even think it’s a Jerboa specific issue.
The word selection is definitely Jerboa-specific for me. If I double tap a word in any other app’s free text fields, it selects the word. Not so in Jerboa.
My usage case can’t seem to allow edits. Like, it I try to move the text cursor around and then try to paste a link or anything for that matter, it starts overwriting the words at the beginning of my post.
Maybe its an android issue. This is the only app I regularly type in.
Jerboa uses Jetpack Compose toolkit, instead of traditional Views approach. It is not mature yet and the source of many of these problems you are experiencing. It works well with Gboard but not so much with other keyboards.
- Weird behaviour on text removal on OASP keyboards or derivatives https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/294102838 https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/221636606
- Or this one where when you are typing your text starts getting behind your keyboard https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/266094055
- Or this which causes stuttering behaviour in some scrollable contents https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/250632404
Depends on your keyboard
I use the default Samsung keyboard (only because of s-pen) and swype typing and its autocorrect are atrocious
I used to use gboard and the autocorrect and swype typing for that were really good.
Might just dump it and go back to gboard
Absolutely amazingly with Google keyboard
Its probably just my phone being weird. Ill figure it out eventyally.
No
Sems to be waking OK for mi
