So now everything you type is also sent to Swiftkey servers ...

Fwiw Swiftkey was a paid app a few years ago. Then they became free. How do they still earn money to keep the company running ?

(I always had an Android phone but I assume it's also free on iOS)

IIRC that's actually a setting you can opt out of, though the wording in the app settings is pretty ambiguous

Swiftkey was bought by Microsoft, they don't need revenue anymore. Or maybe they do?
