Word prediction errors #1262

Describe the bug
I'm constantly having issues with the word prediction with Heliboard v2.2. The most agregious example is that almost every time I type "the", I get "thr" and it isn't auto corrected. I long press on "thr" prediction and delete it but it still constantly leaves "thr" in my text anyway.

To Reproduce
Use the keyboard on an android phone in daily use.

Expected behavior
Autocorrect input that aren't valid words and learn from me removing suggestions that the keyboard has previously accepted as words.

Screenshots
N/A

App version
2.2

Device:

  • Model: OnePlus 12 CPH2583
  • OS: Android 15 - OxygenOS 15.0.0.406

I'm guessing this word has been added to your personal dictionary and is therefore being suggested. This has happened to me many times. Remove them from there.

Yes it seems 100's if not 1000's of random words and characters have been added to my personal library. Why would this be? If I hit a suggestion whilst typing is that added to my personal library?
99% of the entries in my personal library have been added in error so maybe the bug isn't what I initially thought.

Yep, this happens if you select a word from the suggestion bar several times, I think.

This is not a bug, you have the "add words to personal dictionary" option enabled in the correction settings. It irritated me too, so I turned it off. Now if the keyboard learns the wrong word, I just hold it and delete it.

Suggesting words frm the personal dictionary is intended and not a bug.
Regarding unwanted additions there are already other issues.
