    I've usually against 3rd party keyboards but Gboard is really good and useful, most are just gaudy and gimmicky tbh.

    What do you mean? You click the button and then it's available for download on the release date.

    yeah but now it's saying i have to pay a price to complete my album

    Is it an album that's out right now?

    yeah so i'm thinking the price of the singles and the price to finish album is the price of the album

    Yeah, the "complete my album" price just subtracts the price of the songs you've already bought from the price of the full album.

    Switched back to Apple Music thanks to the student discount (which I lost on Spotify the first time I used Apple) and the exclusive on Chance's album. Here's hoping they've worked some stuff out (and that redesign rumor turns out to be true).

    I tend to agree, but Gboard is actually the best I've seen thus far. And the keyboards have become better integrated over time.
     
  12. I was just reading this on MacStories and it basically describes my experience:
    More importantly, I'd like to see their performance improve. Here's an example: when you swipe down from the Home screen to open Spotlight, Apple's keyboard comes up with a soft transition that's pleasing on the eye; if you do the same with a custom keyboard, the transition is always jarring, and it often doesn't work at all.

    Gboard has been pretty fun so far but it sometimes thinks I'm trying to use the swipe/glide feature when I'm just typing regularly and is causing typos

    I've been liking it. Turned off the swipe function since I suck at using it that way haha. Just being able to look stuff up without leaving is great.

  15. Numerical is one lovely calculator and it has no ads! (Why doesn't the iPad have the iOS calculator?)

    I thought that part of it was pretty awesome, and being able to paste a Google search results into a message to send to someone.

    The last 2 years almost all of the leaks around this time of year were spot on.

    Same. Just pretty convenient when you do want to send something to someone!

    When I first started using that feature with any new keyboard, I was absolutely terrible at it, but now it's pretty much second nature and faster for me than texting without it.

    Yeah I tried SwiftKey before and just couldn't get used to it. I think autocorrect needs a tad more work, but other than that, I'll be using Gboard as my primary keyboard for the time being.

    I think I finally found an email app I love that I can use instead of Gmail, for anyone looking for one it's email by easilydomail. It has customizable swipes, 3D touch customization, and a plain and simple UI like Mail.app

    Oh shit! I've been using Spark on iOS, but still haven't found anything I like as much as Mailbox. I'll check this out though, man!

    Actually found it from this video on TechnoBuffalo, shows how it runs if you are interested:



    I have used Spark, Outlook and a few others, but I think this is going to fit my needs perfectly. I wish gmail was good as it is on Android.
