I used this app for many years now, but suddenly the speech to text function started performing terribly for a few months now, across different languages. Since then, it understands, and writes words that do not exist in the given language regularly, instead of existing words, which I want to dictate and are very easy to guess based on the context.

Overall very good feeling and feedback, the only thing that bothers me personally, is that the emoji keyboard is shortcuted to holding the comma if you have different languages installed and the language change can be done by pressing the globe symbol next to the space bar AND also by holding the spacebar. That's redundant and I think it would be nice to replace the globe symbol by the emoji board. But thats the only thing bothering me so far after like 5 Months of using :D

I like gboard, it's the only keyboard I use, I and I am, over all very happy with what it can do and what features it has. But there are 2 things I'm not so pleased about. 1 (which also might be my phone capacity) When I type long texts, no matter which app I am on, after a while, without placing a dot, gboard stops correcting spelling mistakes and is a bit delayed (letter and word suggestion delay). 2 the memory of the keyboard, if I delete a correction, it will pop up 5 minutes later again.
