Basically, what the title says. Do you use any app, that is proprietary, but either has no OSS alternatives or they're all not good enough? If there is an alternative, what keeps you from switching?

A keyboard with swipe typing, multilingual autocorrect and speech to text support that actually works.

Other than that, my only proprietary apps are from commercial services I use and pay for (banking, Spotify, Carsharing and public transport). I'd love for them to become open source, but it's probably not ever gonna happen, cause they rely on verifying my identity.

HeliBoard in combination with FUTO Voice Input is recommended. Unfortunately, the word prediction isn't too good.

@Kasupke are we recommending proprietary software here in the open-source lemmy community?
