I actually use both, but I favor the SwiftKey keyboard. I've tried several third party keyboards, but always seem to return to the Stock and SwiftKey keyboards.
I once used Swiftly on Android, but now I won't use anything but stock because I don't want to share what I type with a company that may not be able to secure it. The stock keyboard is more than good enough for me.
I'm always a stock person. I almost feel like I'm cheating on my OS if I start using another keyboard haha. Also, I'm spending $3+ on something that could be free
Swiftkey is nice because it has a lot of settings and you can customise quite of lot. Obviously supports a lot of languages but the IOS keyboard does that to.
I think most people get it for its prediction system and the first thing I mentioned but stock keyboard for me.
I trust Apple more than Microsoft for ongoing data security, yes. I know that the risk is low, but Apple seems to fight more for proper encryption and security more than Microsoft does, IMO.So you trust employees at Apple to see what you type, but not SwiftKey?
Gboard has included mic dictation to text recently. There's a mic symbol on the space bar, just long press to activate. I use that all the time now

I used to use SwiftKey, but then I ditched it when Word Flow became available for iOS. That's my go-to keyboard, although it's sometimes annoying. It's definitely better on Windows Phone than iOS. It's generally okay, but there are too many dumb typos on iOS every now and then. Still, I prefer Word Flow to SwiftKey because I would rather swipe to text or email.
I used Swiftkey on Android, iPhone 7+ is my first iPhone and I initially tried Swiftkey but after a week or so went back to the stock iOS Keyboard which I feel works well.
That sounds about like me. I used a third party keyboard when I was using an Android phone and I attempted the same when I first switched to iOS (iPhone 6) but it just didn't feel like a seamless experience across the OS and apps.
I use diction and for things like my email addresses that I type regularly...I just go in and add text replacements.
What makes Word Flow's swipe better than SwiftKey's? I generally don't swipe to text as it slows me down, I am curious how different swipe keyboards differ though.
