OK I'm trying heliboard now, interesting. It puts my Polish, German, English and Swedish keyboard together into one. Let's see how it'll work in the long run.
I'm especially impressed that it offers a Korean keyboard too, which I missed in all the other free alternatives. That was the main reason I stuck with the Samsung keyboard.
The multilingual support always predict words in all languages, even if you started a sentence in a specific one. And it will follow the typo rules of the first language in the list. For example, if the first language is French, it will add a space before the interrogation mark (French rule), even if you're writing in English.
I'm wondering the same. Sure would be nice.
EDIT: And I found it a minute after my post lol. Inside Heliboard, go to settings, find languages, don't use system languages. Add your main language, then tap it and a "hidden" menu will come up. In it is the multilingual option. Tapping it will enable you to add another language to the same Heliboard language.
Yeah, that's what I interpreted. That's what I enabled with the steps I mentioned. I have the English keyboard enabled in Heliboard. I tapped on it, and added Polish in the "multilingual" section.
I both typed and swiped to właśnie zdanie (this exact sentence) i słowa w nim (and the words in it). Simultaneously.
Added is a screenshot for reference. If you meant something completely different (like letter gesturing?), sorry, I don't follow.
