  • Sadly these come and go so frequently that unless you're into constantly tinkering, it can be exhausting to keep up with which keyboard is or is not in active development and receiving updates. OpenBoard seems to be suffering the same https://github.com/dslul/openboard/issues/250

  • Simple Keyboard is both on F-Droid and Play Store. https://github.com/rkkr/simple-keyboard

  • AnySoftKeyboard

    Android (f/w 2.1+) on screen keyboard for multiple languages.

  • I love AnysoftKeyboard but it completely freezes once every few days when pressing the emoji key. Forcing me to reboot my phone. Which is quite annoying to say the least.
