Best Keyboard App?

Thanks, Dieben. This is indeed a great keyboard! Quite surprisingly though it is very rare. I just can't figure out how to customize keypress sound. Looks like it uses system sound, doesn't it?
Shame I can't really use it. It is the first keyboard that puts Russian layout in 4 rows, thus taking up half the screen. Otherwise, a great finding!
 
Being a big guy 6'3 270 lbs,I found Big button keyboard the best for me,you can find it in the play.
 
I used to use SlideIT but i found it continually making the same errors when Swiping, that's when i heard about Swype and tried it, and found it didn't make the same mistakes, been using the Beta ever since, love it!
 
What is a good keyboard app that is free? And no ads would be a bonus!

I had GoKeyboard, but the auto-correct drove me nuts. It corrected every little thing. And wrongly.

Thanks for any info!
 
For free, if you want to try swiping gesture keyboards:

- Swype (beta.swype.com)
- TouchPal in the Play Store
- Stock Android 4.2 keyboard with gesture typing
- coming soon....SwiftKey Flow (beta will be free but will eventually be a part of SwiftKey paid)
 
I know it isn't available on Play anymore, but I still prefer FlexT9 by Nuance to any other keyboard I've tried. Ran it on my Droid X for most of the almost 2 years I used that, and when i got my GS3, I extracted the APK from my DX and sent it to my GS3, and I've been using that as my keyboard since then.
 
Tried Swiftkey but didn't warm to it - went back to Swype. Swiftkey Flow (due out any day) looks promising. Basically Swype with Swiftkey prediction. That could be the big winner.
 
I use Swype (beta or the installed version) more now simply because of the availability of my native language. You don't have to be accurate in swiping and most often it gets what you're trying to type. Voice input is also accurate. I'm typing this using my voice, I think Swype is also owned by Nuance, so voice input is excellent.

I type faster using SwiftKey, usually I can input a word with just one letter, sometimes I can type a string of words just using the spacebar. But the unavailability of the Tagalog dictionary clinched it for Swype. On database inputs I usually use either the stock keyboard or ultra keyboard because of dedicated numbers keys.

Hope this helps out. Cheers!
