@prince-0408, would you be able to take a look? Thanks so much for the PR, @akkicodes-dev!

@andrewtavis Sure! on it!

LGTM!

Reviewed the changes across all 3 files:

• Replaced invalid Unicode tag "≠" in KeyboardBase.kt with TAG = "KeyboardBase".
• Replaced generic "Navigation" log tags in LanguageSettingsScreen.kt with TAG = "LanguageSettingsScreen".
• Fixed typo'd "Souncheck" tag in KeyboardView.kt with a TAG constant.

Thanks @akkicodes-dev!

Discussing this with @angrezichatterbox right now, we're wondering what the use would be for keeping these logs at all. It might be nice to have an audit of the current logs that we have and whether they're useful for the development process :)

Thanks @prince-0408! And that's a great point @andrewtavis — happy to help with a logs audit if that would be useful. For now, should I proceed with this PR as-is since it fixes the immediate issues (invalid/typo'd/clashing tags), or would you prefer to hold off until the broader audit discussion concludes?

Hey @akkicodes-dev
If you are interested could u do a small audit of the logs. Wheather there are places were Logs are not needed are were added for personal debugging. The logs could also be checked for wheather its causing the logcat to be noisy with all sorts of information which is not neccesary. This would be very helpful to get a good idea of the repository as well.

Thanks : )

Thanks @angrezichatterbox! Yes, I'd be happy to take this on

To scope it correctly, a couple of quick questions:

1. Should I cover the entire codebase (both keyboardDebug and conjugateDebug variants), or focus on one first?
2. For logs that look unnecessary or debug-only, would you prefer I compile a report/list here for discussion first, or open a separate PR directly with the removals?

I'll start going through it and share my findings soon!

Completed the log audit! Went through all Log.* calls in the codebase (76 total across app/src/main and app/src/keyboards).

Summary:

• USEFUL: 69 (tied to real exception handling — DB errors, network failures, parsing errors, etc. — these should stay)
• LEFTOVER: 6 (look like debug traces left over from development)
• NOISY: 1 (fires on every keystroke)

Here are the 7 candidates for removal:

Want me to open a follow-up PR removing these 7, or would you like to review first?
