Just in case I’m asked, here’s the basics steps to get it going:
I downloaded the release from https://github.com/Helium314/HeliBoard and then installed. (Or set it up via Obtainium until its ready for F-Droid release)
I downloaded the Swipe library linked on the HeliBoard Github page from here.
Under HeliBoard settings -> advanced, I clicked “load gesture library” and selected the downloaded swipe library
And for voice input, l downloaded Futo from the play store. FYI, it’s free and offline, but not FOSS.
That’s it.
Just setup the two apps with your specifics like the theme and etc. This is what mine looks like now:
How do you get your microphone option in the top right corner like that. Mine only shows up under the toolbar menu, after hitting the arrow key (top left corner)
Here’s another one then: in heliboard settings, go to about, and hit “Description of hidden features.” It’s where I found that, plus a few more neat tricks!

You can tap and hold on the microphone button to pin it to the right.
This is a hot tip!
Exactly this. You can pin several functions this way.
Wow, that’s a gamechanger! HeliBoard has so many neat little tricks like that, but sometimes they’re hard to find.

Thanks! 😁
This was very helpful, thank you.
Edit: is the FUTO app restricted in any way until I purchase premium?
Not that I’m aware of.
Just FYI, it is on IzzyOnDroid!
