It looks really neat, but is it still maintained?
I think so. The last update was in december -21, which doesn't seem that far back for a keyboard app. I've not contacted the developer by their support channel email so I don't know if they respond that way. I've personally had very few problems with it over many years' use.
I cannot seem to find either the game app or the dictionaries on the play store.
They are still on the app store, but unlike the keyboard app itself don't seem to be updated for modern Android devices. For example:
I've sent Exideas a support email asking why this is the case, so I guess when and whether they respond will be something of a litmus test of how active their support is these days. In the meantime, it seems the language modules/dictionaries can be downloaded as APKs directly from their website. They should not at all be necessary to use the keyboard, in any case.
I've sent them a main as well this morning. The dictionaries apk are also only available using http.
I just noticed I received a reply, two days ago:
So apparently the support is still active.
And I got a reply: "we are working on it". This is great news, let's see what hapens!
