For example, if I type out a sentence and decide I want to add asterisks around a word for emphasis, why does Gboard replace the space between the previous word and the emphasized word instead of just adding the new character? Is this added functionality for something I just don’t understand?

Edit: I believe I have fixed the issue by disabling the “Smart Compose” option.

    now i’m comfortable with openboard, and keeping an eye on florisboard

    Sadly, the swiping options on these ones are useless or nonexistent. I find only gboard tolerable for this form of text input now, which is really crap. Swype was king. Long live Swype.
