Firefox browser.
I just downloaded Futo!
How is it?
Not OP, but it's decent.
If you're used to swiping to type on Gboard, the predictions aren't as accurate. 10-25% of the time, manually typing is faster than swiping because the predictions are so wrong, or because there's no prediction at all.
It's supposed to train locally in order to improve the predictions, but I don't know how long it will take for it to "catch up" to the swipe-to-text experience that I'm used to.
I could not live without swiping. Used SwiftKey but then switched to Google like 2 years ago after it got too bad.
Does notally work by syncing online? I haven't found one that allows me to share notes with family that still is more trustworthy than Google (apart from setting up my own server that I can connect to when I'm out).
Notally does not have any account or syncing capabilities.
How do you feel about using Syncthing? I use it to sync my notes and files between myself, but it could work in a family setting.

Does it work between two cell phones? I thought it required a server.
It does! And there's no server, it's all sync'd locally or encrypted over the internet. You just need to install it on both devices and point them at each other. I don't believe it works on iphones though. Or at least without jumping through a lot of hoops.
Very cool! I'm going to check it out
One word of caution, the folder ID (xxxxx-xxxxx) has to be the same for each folder you want to sync.
