How do you get the auto correct / language support to actually work? It's less than useless for me, it hardly ever provides suggestions or corrects typos and doesn't recognise a lot of regular words. Adjusting the aggressiveness/confidence in the settings does absolutely nothing.
Idk, it works for me perfectly (I assume you downloaded necessary dictionaries).
Maybe it's the learning type and still learning? I only ever added a few words to the dictionary and all of those are bcs I intentionally spell them wrong.
Also iirc you can set it to automatically add words to your dictionary after a certain number of times you typed it (eg if I type twice snailporn the third time should be suggested or considered while gesturing).
I have, it's really not very good IMO. It's half decent in English. but it sucks ass in my native language, half the suggestions it's giving are completely wrong or nonsensical in the context of the sentence.
My native language is pretty niche, and I have since remembered that I did have a few funny suggestions at the beginning, however I now dont really differentiate between Heli & g. But the same goes for gboard & Swyft, it needs a few weeks at the beginning.
Also info about my use - I never have autocorrect on (only suggestions), mostly use gestures, and dont use the system personal dictatory but the one in Heli folders.
Yesterday I've uninstalled 1.0, installed 1.2, and restored a backup. Works just like before.
