What is Samsung honeyboard?

[SamsungBrina]

Can someone please help me out and explain "HoneyBoardService" an active service on my Galaxy S21 Ultra?? I have had issues with my phone recently, and this is listed as an installed app but I never installed it... under active application processes it is listed an input method as:

com.samsung.android.honeyboard

I recently had accounts accessed/ passwords compromised so I don't trust anything right now!! Sorry if I am overreacting and this is nothing to worry about

Supposedly it's the keyboard this is from Google
The Samsung Honeyboard is a keyboard app for Galaxy phones that uses AI features to make typing easier and more convenient. The keyboard also includes other features, such as:

Undo and redo: Use two fingers to undo and redo actionsTranslation: Use the keyboard's translation functionVoice recognition: Use the keyboard's voice recognition functionSamsung Pass: Use Samsung Pass through the keyboard

Phew ok, so it's an essential app then? Glad I didn't try removing it! Haha I was under the impression Samsung Pass is no more, that I have to update to Samsung wallet? And thank you so much for answering my post!!

Would LOVE to revert back to Samsung Pass, it has a ton of my logins stored but I haven't been able to make it work with Samsung Wallet

Samsung pass is now built in the wallet app

Thank you

Is there a way to remove Honeyboard or at least don't let it connect to Grammerly? Looks like this is a recent change and I have a work profile on my phone, it keeps getting blocked by the organization policy which made using the keyboard on work apps a nightmare!

Under settings, if you go into the settings page for "Samsung Keyboard" then go into the "Suggest text corrections" page and disable the toggle for the language it runs on, it should stop pinging grammarly (maybe, hopefully?) I am in the same boat, so far so good
