Originally iOS-only, Gboard is one of the most well-rounded keyboards available on Android. It features things like Google, emoji and GIF search right from the keyboard itself -- just tap the G logo. Gboard also includes gesture typing, very accurate autocorrect, word prediction and a one-handed mode. If you find the Google Keyboard is nice but doesn't have quite enough customization, try Hydrogen Keyboard formerly known as Chrooma.
It's very similar to Google Keyboard both in usability and design. But it comes packed with a ton of customizations, such as a split mode for thumb typing, night mode and standard emoji, not those hideous Android ones.
It also comes with a grammar check feature. Unlike Google Keyboard, the number row at the top of Hydrogen Keyboard can be swiped left or right to access clipboard controls or frequently used emoji. And if you purchase the premium unlocks, you can customize everything just a little bit more. If you're fine with the included features, Hydrogen is free to use.
Grammarly is an online service that checks your grammar as you type in any text field in your browser. It's eerily accurate and helps give you peace of mind while typing out emails or working on papers. What you get with Grammarly Keyboard is the usual service packed into a neat package on your phone. It works with most apps and text fields, but you'll be giving up gesture typing and other cool stuff like GIF support and deep customization.
That's the price to pay for typing with correct grammar. Speaking of price, Grammarly and its keyboard are free to use, though there's a premium upgrade for desktop users that includes things like context check and integration with Microsoft Word and Outlook. SwiftKey is a keyboard veteran and a fan favorite. Like Google Keyboard, SwiftKey uses gesture typing for easier and faster input. It also has an aggressive and artificially intelligent autocorrect engine that learns the way you type and gets better at correcting your typos over time.
Something that sets SwiftKey apart is its floating keyboard. You can undock the keyboard, resize it and drag it anywhere on the screen to type, as well as enable a one-handed mode or turn it into a split thumb keyboard.
These features are particularly useful on a larger device, such as a tablet. SwiftKey is available at no cost, with both free and premium themes which can be downloaded through in-app purchases. Minuum is certainly one of the most strange keyboards, and the only one that breaks from the traditional QWERTY layout.
It's based on the QWERTY layout, but it condenses everything to a single row and banks on context along with a strong autocorrect engine to figure out what you're trying to type. It has a built-in dictionary and thesaurus, and it includes one of my personal favorite features: inline emoji search.
Minuum takes a lot of getting used to, but after the learning curve, it packs a ton of features into a very compact package. There is also a trial version , which is good for 30 days. Without gesture typing, Fleksy also relies on strong autocorrect software to correct your sloppy typing. And Fleksy's autocorrect is one of the best in the business. Like Minuum's experimental panels, Fleksy has an extensions bar above the keyboard.
Extensions are customizable and range from GIF search to a launcher and clipboard controls. Not only is Fleksy free, the developers recently made all the included themes free, as well. The only in-app purchase you will find now is an unlock for additional extensions. Another keyboard based on extensions, or slashes, is Slash Keyboard.
Hit the Slash button to the left of the space bar to immediately begin searching something like Product Hunt. Tapping on one of the search results will automatically paste it in the text field you're typing in.
Slash Keyboard is entirely free, and it's very unique. I've always called it the Swiss Army Knife of software keyboards.
However, it lacks the strong autocorrect of other keyboards, as well as gesture typing, which can make it a pain to use at times. Ginger Keyboard has it all -- themes, emoji, gesture typing, solid autocorrect, shortcuts to helpful apps like creating a new note or task in your preferred app and even search. Something else that Ginger Keyboard has that you won't find in many other keyboards is games.
You can play classics like Snake or something a little newer, like , without ever leaving the app you're in. It seems odd, sure. But why not? Ginger Keyboard also has a spell checker, which is a little different than autocorrect. However, while Ginger Keyboard is free, it limits the corrections it makes to just eight.
Although Chrooma Keyboard is free to download, you can choose a one-time paid subscription to access its premium features, such as syncing keyboard settings with multiple devices, along with customization of fonts, sizes, and styles.
For accuracy and improving your texts, FancyKey Keyboard includes auto-suggestion, auto-correct, and gesture typing features, as well as compatibility with 50 languages. You can also browse through thousands of themes to customize your keyboard.

Fleksy also includes emoji suggestions and a unique fireworks extension that features keyboard sounds and taps for added customization.

With the Go Keyboard, you can access more than 10, themes, fonts, and custom emojis to revamp your Android keyboard. When it comes to custom emojis, GO Keyboard helps you create an animated avatar that looks like you. Another noteworthy feature of GO Keyboard is the number of languages supported through this Android keyboard app.
