  • Signal recently added a new warning in their Android app (currently in beta) when enabling Incognito Keyboard along with link to a new support page.

  • EdXposed

    Elder driver Xposed Framework.

  • I rooted my phone with magisk(Github), and used Afwall+(github), which is open source. Xprivacylua(github) is also open source, and needs the xposed framework to work. I use edxposed(github), which is pretty much a modern reimplementation of the legacy xposed framework.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • irregular-expressions

    Android virtual keyboard for expressive typing

  • No experience with it but it has a refreshing privacy policy, is open-source, and on F-Droid. Looks like a solid option.

  • Fleksy

  • It also appears they rely on 3rd-party analytics to "enable the Owner to monitor and analyze web traffic and can be used to keep track of User behavior" and their code was open-source in the past but not anymore?
