I'm also a Swiftkey holdover, trying Heliboard now..
Is there a keyboard that can do haptic feedback while typing and enable multiple languages at the same time? These two features are really missing for me.
Heliboard can do multilingual typing, and I believe there is some kind of haptic feedback... I don't use that function, but it was mentioned in the latest release notes
How does it do multilingual typing? You have to change the input method, right?
Not necessarily: you can choose to have several languages separated as different input methods (you can switch between them very quickly by sliding vertically from the space bar) OR you can go to "Settings / Languages" and select one of your active languages and inside its submenu add languages for multilingual typing. This way when you select that original language as input method it will use and recognise all the languages you added at once. I must say this can be tricky with glide typing, but still works pretty well.
Thanks! I went back and eventually found the settings for them. You can even configure the length of the haptic feedback which is great.
