I can agree. It feels like most of the keyboard apps I tried either don't have Asian language support or have other problems.
I am definitely gonna have to look up Trime and Fcitx5_for_android.
i use trime on android and the default takes quite a while to get used to. for example, the symbol key that is usually on the bottom left corner is now a language switching key and the symbol key is one tiny key beside it. custom configuration seems like a pain and i haven't done it. one of the defaults however comes with a menu that lets you type all sorts of symbols including greek, russian, japanese, IPA and mathematical operators. haven't sen fcitx5 for android though
edit: currently using fcitx5 android and i can say just go with this. everything comes right out of the box (no screwing around with config files) and has all the features trime has and more (i can even type unicode! ☻). only feature i would miss is that trime types both round brackets at once and places your cursor in the middle whereas fcitx5 android needs you to type them individually.
