Your Phone Virtual Keyboard spying on you

As you may know, your smartphone virtual keyboard is an application like any other application. This is vulnerability to your passwords, especially if it is a third party app. Make sure you can trust the source.

Measures to take:
  • Disable Backup & sync and make sure you removed all your backups from Goole Drive and other cloud backup services
  • Disable Cloud prediction
  • Click "Delete personalized dictionary backup" periodically or use "Incognito" option
  • Simply do not use third party keyboards, rely on the device default. Make sure you use an original ROM image.
  • Avoid typing passwords if the prediction field is active. If this happens it means that your application is not able to tell the keyboard app that you are going to type a password and this does not need to be indexed in the dictionary. You don't want to type the password and then automatically save it into the Cloud Backup & sync.
