| 2024-11-13 |  | | Basically useful but I wish it were more practical for normal typinɡ too (there's no period or comma on the default keyboard, you have to ɡo to the numbers and symbols paɡe). Also, the keys have no shape, so my finɡers keep stumblinɡ. And there's no dark mode. |
| 2024-08-06 |  | | Incredibly useful for those who like the IPA and find in it an amazing tool; the upgrade is well worth it, as it's not expensive and gives a nice set of additional features, though those might recquire a bit more of reading to understand. Anyways, I've been enjoying the app for a couple of years now, and I absolutely recommend it. |
| 2024-05-26 |  | | no dark mode available, also the comma shoud be abke to be pressed with one click, as it is i first have to press the number button to access it whereas the previouse keyboard wasnt so, the lack of dictionary suddgestion is also a letdown. overall a good keyboard, if you allowed key postion customizability it would be great, please adress this thanks!! Edit:for being responsive and giving feedback to my comment 4/5 |
| 2024-02-02 |  | | Basic characters available only. I have a text file with about 600 characters, only from the European alphabets, this is why I copy and paste a selected character from the text file. Purchasing the full version has no sense, as I can simply add these characters to the default keyboard. |
| 2022-08-26 |  | | overall very good. the math tab especially is unexpected but lovely. one thing I have a problem with is that ⱱ, χ, ◌ˠ, ◌ˁ, ◌ˡ, ◌ⁿ, ◌̻, and β are locked behind the paid version despite being standard IPA symbols. it'd also be nice if slashes were available on the transcription tab. |
| 2021-10-23 |  | | Givinɡ this five stars because it deserves it. My one request is that /i/ and /u/ be offered as alternate /iː/ and /uː/ with diacritical marks already in place, as commonly shown in many IPA-Enɡlish tranliterations. Five plus stars (whatever that means) if you did that! Or...ɡive the ː mark as a selection on the same screen as the characters that use them. |
| 2021-03-01 |  | | Buggy, Low Effort To start, too many IPA symbols are locked unless you pay for the premium version; common sounds too. To add to that, after a few days the keyboard crashes and makes it so you can't even switch to your other keyboards. Making for a frustrating experience. |
| 2020-08-31 |  | | Been a great app. A minor issue is that somehow typographical variants like "dotless j" and "dotless i" is available without the Pro Version but actual symbols like the Voiceless Uvular Fricative, Voiced Epiglottal Fricative and Epiglottal Stop is not? Not to mention the fact that the Click series is entirely absent. |
| 2020-08-06 |  | | It is almost the best IPA Keyboard for android devices. The above sentence should act as an update to my previous review you can find below (and for which an update rolled out to fix the issue at hand back then): The keyboard has bugs. When you want to use the superscript characters, if the letter is on the top row, only the first row characters are shown upon a long press. Sometimes half of them are not even shown. |
| 2020-02-11 |  | | Very good keyboard, could add more customizabilities though, especially when I don't see any difference between "pro" version and the normal one. I wish I could turn off the pop-up words, they could be really annoying sometimes. And the height of the keyboard should be adjustable. |
