Am I the only one who's comfortable with the stock keyboard?

i have tried all of the third parties keyboards and i always come back to the stock keyboard. i do not like the concept of swipe so not too interested in that. Any who i do have the GiF Riffsy third party keyboard that i use for fun sometimes. That app also has its own keyboard which is horrible by the way lol. I only use the pictures.

Does the stock keyboard have this feature? Mistakes are made and the predictive will offer those as word options. But you can't delete those non words from the predictive dictionary with the stock keyboard. You would have to go to settings and Reset Keyboard Dictionary. The whole thing. With SwiftKey, just long press on the non word or any undesirable word in the predictive box. Then this option pops up:

I like that! You could have it not predict your ex's name! :D

I love the stock keyboard! I've tried a bunch of the third party keyboards but none have impressed me enough to stick with them.

One thing I hate about the stock keyboard is the email addresses and other stuff that pop up when I don't want them. It can't be autocorrect. And I've cleared up my shortcuts. So why when I type the word "Hangs", do I get an email address? Very frustrating. SwiftKey doesn't do that. Here's what I mean.

Stock keyboard to me is decent. But doesn't compare to the utility that Fleksy brings. And its auto correct is better and is more forgiving when pressing in the wrong area and still guessing the right words. Not to mention gestures will always outpace tapping.

I prefer the stock keyboard also... Especially on the Plus. Works great without any gimmickry.

Definitely the stock keyboard but I have been trying Swype just can't figure out how to use emojis with it.

Stock for typing, yes. But PopKey for fun!!!!! I'd paste a gif here if I could, doesn't work in forums, but great for text messages!!

I know it might sound crazy. But the keyboard is a lot of the reason why I stick to the iPhone. Android might have near little features, but none of those keyboards are ever as nice as the stock iPhone keyboard. I don't swipe, t9 or anything like that so I am very pleased with the accuracy and simplicity of the stock keyboard. I feel this is one item I don't really want to spend a lot of time tinkering with.

I just hate the way you have to switch keyboards on IOS, thats the only reason I use the stock keyboard. I really loved using swiftkey on Android but its just not the same on IOS.

What do you mean by having top switch keyboards?

Every time I have used swift key for some reason it always ends up going back to the stock keyboard. Even though I have set up swiftly as my default

That's odd. I doubt use SwiftKey, but I haven't had that happen while using Swype. I wonder why that happens?
