I'm not sure if Gboard is using Gemini for autocorrect or what, but recently it's been incredibly frustrating because it will change entire words when I'm typing. For example, I typed the sentence "I had to move my motorcycle with a flat tire" and it changed it to "I had to move my motor with a flat tire." It also LOVES changing "absolutely" to "also." This happens CONSTANTLY and it's annoying bc I know the words I want to use! I'm using the correct words!

gboard is a lifesaver to anyone who likes to write on their phone or tablets, it's convienent layout is natural to the hand and the ability to customize keys and functions to taste only makes it doubly sol once you set it up. its's so easy to use you almost forget that it's there. and isn't that the desired result of such a tool? I highly recommend it.

I want to like it more, but the one handed mode has a bug that Google can't figure out. When the keyboard opens, it'll be set to right handed mode, but the keyboard will appear on the left, with no arrows or controls to move it. To get it working correctly, you need to go into the settings, change it to left handed mode, then the arrows appear and you can move it to the right. This happens ever time it's opened. People have been complaining about this for years, I doubt it'll get fixed.
