Hacker’s Keyboard (the first one), Florisboard Beta, FUTO Keyboard and more have a button to reverse and repeat the actions.
This can reverse stuff like deleting a text and more.
This feature exists, but just isnt used!

- Hacker’s Keyboard
- Thumbkey
- FUTO Keyboard

- Heliboard (modern Fork of OpenBoard)

Hacker’s Keyboard can. Because it’s just a condensed full keyboard, ctrl, alt, arrow keys, function keys, and most of the rest included.
I rarely use that keyboard, but once in a while you just need to type something in a terminal or a remote desktop or something, and it really comes in handy then.
Undo has been available in the Alt Menu of GBoard for a while. Long press on an editable text field then select Undo in the popup alternative menu (sometimes you need to scroll over or tap the 3 dots to see the full menu choices)
Let’s see if that’s true.
Nope. Couldn’t find it.
Not saying you’re lying, but it’s not available on my version of gboard.
Maybe you need to enable Glide Typing in GBoard options or another setting I have turned on.
Well fuck me! Mine doesn’t have that. Do you have a Pixel?
Samsung Galaxy S22.
What do you see in the popup menu when you long press on an editable text field, like in these comments?
I see an identical menu minus the undo. Fail. Oh well.
No 3 dots you can tap on on that menu to show all the options?
There’s an undo in mine…
What phone do you have?
Galaxy S20. I saw the other post was aGalaxy series as well; maybe Samsung just has it enabled?
Yeah, I’m thinking that’s the case … maybe it’s a tweak to their Android text boxes. That seems like something that’s got to be keyboard independent.
Found FUTO to be my favorite of the and trying it out now as a daily driver, thanks for the suggestion :)
What do you think so far, any observations?
It’s the best replacement for Google keyboard I’ve tried by a wide mile. I like the gestures it has by comparison, they allow finer control. It’s also very stylish. I’ll probably use it for a long while.
I’ve been trying to find a new keyboard for a while now but I find myself missing the gif menu. 😩 The second they add one to futo or heliboard I’m so down
Wanna know something weirder?
The official Google keyboard has undo too—just only on the Japanese locale (perhaps on similar languages too)
No idea why it’s not at least an option to put on the suggestion bar for every other language
