## Review summary

EasyType Keyboard is a privacy-friendly, highly customizable option with theme creation, precise cursor control, and productivity features like shortcuts. It shines where you can type faster without full data access and tailor settings to your preference. However, it struggles with essential features and reliability: no swipe-to-text, stability issues, autocorrect quirks, and limited language support, along with missing text replacements and occasional theme display problems. It shows promise but needs more maintenance and feature parity to become a mainstream option.

### Pros

- Privacy-friendly: works without requiring full device access and claims not to collect keystrokes or text data.
- Theme creation and customization options, plus varied display and cursor controls (theme selection, number display options, and iOS-like settings).
- Shortcuts and productivity features that save time.
- Precise cursor movement and strong input control (good trackpad-like precision).
- Option to disable auto-correct while keeping predictive text for better control over typing.

### Cons

- No swipe-to-text feature is a major drawback for many users.
- Stability issues: crashes/lockups and OS version regressions; maintenance appears inconsistent.
- Autocorrect bugs and misbehavior (word doublings, extra letters, unreliable suggestions).
- Limited language support and non-English predictions (requests for Arabic, Persian, etc.).
- Missing iOS-style text replacements and some theme/visual display issues on certain devices (themes not fitting or displaying correctly).
