Contact GIF Keyboard Support

I didn’t have a lot of memory on my phone so I deleted this app sadly lost all my fave gifs but it was taking up like 2gb...then I was able to redownload it and it’s asking for full access to be able to use it...that means whenever you type ANYTHING anywhere while on your phone...they are able to access that information. And if you disable it and turn it back on it can access anything you typed while it was disabled. This is a free app with no add-on purchases, why do you need access to everything I type including debit/credit card info, addresses, texts, other sensitive info, etc? It’s unnecessary and so I deleted it AGAIN. Sad bc I love this app, it has the best gifs but I don’t want my card info being accessible to an app in some weird sneaky way.

So I’ve used this app for a while and it did its purpose. It was a little slow to load some images at times, and it’s not organized very well, but the search feature got me what I needed. The problem is the app and I guess other keyboards require full access to your phone and see everything you type or even have previously typed if you re-install. This is a crazy security risk and just too much for my liking. The company tries to downplay the significance but this is a big deal. I can’t have a random developer seeing everything I type like credit card numbers. 3 stars at first because the app generally did what it needed to do despite this huge security risk, but dropped to 2 because the app brushes past this issue and doesn’t mention it at all when instructing you to download and allow full access. It would be better to address it head on. Shady

1) there’s 3 different instances of the app. The keyboard top bar select, the actual selectable keyboard, and the app itself
2) all 3 instances are missing features from one another. So if there’s something you want to do or settings you want to change, good luck finding which instance to use...
3) stickers will only show up in their own distinctive category if you use the top bar select version, However you can’t use your account version. If you use the keyboard itself you can’t really tell what a sticker is from just another gif. If you use the app itself you can only manage your library but cannot search for stickers at all.

The app does what is advertised but it seems any effort to streamline or improve is absent. So overall annoying most of the time but if there could be any feature I’d like to see added would be the ability to view only stickers.
