Openboard hasn't updated in a year and a half
If you're satisfied with it, you don't need to update. But Openboard lacks a lot of features many people want. The biggest of them is probably the glide typing, which Heliboard supports. And it also added a lot of quality of life improvements.
Some new features, bug fixes, and ongoing support.
~~It is a new application so you do have to set it up fresh - don't switch until you have a bit of spare time.~~ Missed the back and restore button in settings.
Personally I'm on one of the fork's beta versions. I'm waiting for the f-droid release so I get updates.
You can import your OpenBoard settings
Found it. Thanks
Use Obtainium? I get updates from GitHub (and Fdroid) that way.
It has swipe typing plus a lot of other new features/theme customisation that openboard didn't have.
