Oh, that's a bummer :( what happens when you try to use it?
This is me typing "hello", so it seems like it duplicates all the characters typed so far every time I add a character.
Aw man, that's too bad :/ what keyboard is it?
It's called Kii. You can still get a version from a 3rd party site since it hasn't been on the play store for years.
I'm not sure how much I trust those apk sites, (so downloader beware!) but you can at least see the screenshots: https://www.apk4fun.com/apps/com.zl.inputmethod.latin/
I don't think it's anything earth shattering, but it's kinda nice, and fairly minimal, and it's what I'm used to, so I'm happy with it.
Have you tried other options like AnySoftKeyboard or HeliBoard (fork of OpenBoard)
I'm pretty sure you'll like AnySoftKeyboard, it's pretty minimal and similar to your current keyboard. And it works with Thunder.
You can still submit a bug report for Thunder not working with Kii, I'm pretty sure the Thunder devs would be willing to fix this.
Me old man, me yell at cloud. Change bad.
Thanks, though, I'll take a look at them. (:
I did submit a bug report, but the dev didn't seem interested in getting the apk for testing. I can't say I blame them. Apk sites are a little sketchy, and it's also probably not a bug that'll affect many other people.
