Hackers Keyboard has that via ctrl+z, but only in horizontal mode. For this only i had my Galaxy S3 in horizontal per default. But can't do that with modern phones' aspect ratio and i'm missing undo since then.

I use Futo keyboard. It has dedicated undo/redo button (if you turn-on the function row)

Thanks, i'll take a look.

Edit: why is it so bloated?

Over 100 MB vs. usually 20 MB.

I'm not sure, but it does have its own algorithm for swipe and things like that, with it's own library from what I understand

Probably because it uses nothing online, including the voice to text. It's only local device. A rare claim for those kinds of features.

I can recommend AnySoftKeyboard, it's FOSS and very customizable. If you swipe up from the space bar, you get additional options.

Heliboard my friend and you can enable swipe FTW

Unexpected Keyboard's default layout has a Ctrl Key always available.

you can also add in additional shortcuts such as:

  • undo
  • redo
  • select all
  • copy
  • paste
  • ...

Man why couldn't there be a keyboard like this that also has swipe typing D: I miss the ctrl-like functions of the Swype logo button on the Swype keyboard so much, specifically the select all and the select-one-word abilities

To my knowledge, every single one. It's called the Backspace Key.

How do you undo deleting something?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

You don't, or at least I never have. Once it's gone, it's just gone.
