Does anyone else absolutely loathe phone keyboards?

I am mistyping things ALL the fucking time. I don't even have big fingers or anything either I just feel like the phone sucks at reading my inputs a lot of the time. I've tried using Samsung's keyboard, I've tried Swiftkey, I've tried Google's. I hate them all. Part of me misses the tactile feel of actual keyboards on older flip phones lol. I know they sell extensions for smart phones so you can have an actual keyboard but it makes your phone a lot bulkier. I've heard rumors that Sony wants to make the PS5 controller a touchscreen and I think I'd kill myself if I had to play my games that way.

Best health/habit tracking apps on Android

Debating whether to switch to Android from iOS - I love that OnePlus 15!

The thing is, one thing that keeps drawing me back to iOS is the vast amount of quality health and wellness tracking apps. I think smartphones should be about more than just gaming and social media, the right apps can benefit your overall wellbeing.

Meditation - I use InsightTimer and I know Android offers this. All good.

Hydration - I use Drip. I need an Android alternative that’s either free (or at most £5 one off fee with no monthly cost) that can log a huge variety of drinks such water, tea, fizzy drinks, and juice.

Journaling - I use Apple’s own app but I do also have Day One and know this to work well on Android. All good.

Habits - Now for the big one. I need a central app where I can store all of this kind of stuff as daily habits. I use Streaks on iOS, a truly fantastic app that can read the data from my Apple Health & then automatically mark a lot of habits as complete or not. I don’t necessarily need this seamless sync, I *could* live with manual input, but the app does need to be completely free (or again, at most £5 with no monthly cost) and support at least 10 different habits. Habit tracking was a known flaw when I previously had Android.

Can you help?
